Op de foto van vandaag -5 februari. 2015 - 3 Kleine Zwanen en 5 Wilde Zwanen .
Kun je zien welke de 3 kleine zwanen zijn? Best moeilijk, ik moet ook altijd goed kijken.
Oplossing in tweede comment
De boer is hier niet blij mee. De 51 zwanen vreten in hoog tempo het pas ingezaaide gras op. Hij krijgt hiervoor geen compensatie.
Kleine Zwaan:
De kleine zwaan (Cygnus bewickii) is de kleinste van de drie soorten zwanen die regelmatig in Nederland en België voorkomen. De soort is nauw verwant aan de fluitzwaan, uit Noord-Amerika, en wordt ook wel als een ondersoort van deze soort beschouwd: Cygnus columbianus bewickii. Kleine zwanen broeden 's zomers op de Russische toendra. In de winter komen ze met duizenden naar onder andere Nederland om daar te overwinteren.
Kleine zwanen verschillen van de knobbelzwaan onder andere door hun grootte. De kleine zwaan wordt zo'n 127 centimeter, en de knobbelzwaan wel 150 centimeter (snavelpunt tot staart). Kleine zwanen hebben bovendien geen knobbel bovenop de snavel, en de vlek op de snavel is geel, in tegenstelling tot de oranje kleur die een groot deel van de snavel van de knobbelzwaan heeft. Van de wilde zwaan, die even groot is als de knobbelzwaan, verschilt de kleine zwaan behalve door het formaat ook doordat de gele vlek op de snavel van de wilde zwaan groter is, en naar voren in een punt uitloopt; de gele vlek van de kleine zwaan is kleiner, aan de voorkant afgerond, en loopt niet zo ver naar voren door. Kleine zwanen foerageren soms met honderden tegelijk op graslanden. 's Avonds is hun roep te horen als ze van de voedselplek naar een veilige slaapplek vliegen. Zo'n plaats is vaak een meer of afgesloten natuurgebied dat 's nachts voldoende veiligheid biedt. Kleine zwanen zijn vanaf oktober tot maart te zien in Nederland.

Iandra Castle. George and Elizabeth Greene were settlers with a difference when they purchased their 32,000 acre property in 1878. They built their first homestead named Mount Oriel House in 1880. Greene was a NSW politician and a man with ideas. By the time he died in 1911 his Mount Oriel estate had over 20,000 acres sown in crop. His obituary said he came to a landscape of bush and transformed it into a granary. His estate used 700 horses and employed over 600 people plus various chaffcutters, thrashers etc and the woolshed sheared 30,000 sheep. He came to NSW in 1847 with his parents and spent most of his life on pastoral properties before he purchased Iandra. He dreamed of a medieval feudal system to grow vast areas of crop with little labour. He was regarded as the most important wheat farmer in Australia along with William Farrer who developed his rust resistant wheat type. Greene claims to have introduced the concept of share farming to Australia. He provided the land and took half of the value of the crop but the share farmer bought the seed, fertiliser and provided the labour to sow and reap the crop. But did he? Share cropping was common in the American south after the Civil War and Elizabeth Onlsow (nee MacArthur of Camden Park NSW) introduced share farming on their dairy property in 1887. Greene established his village with houses for the fifty sharefarmers contracted to work his lands. He started with one share farmer in 1891 and gradually expanded the system. His estate manager, named Leonard l’Anson came from Waterloo in South Australia and members of the Freebairn family from Alma in SA also moved to Iandra to be share farmers. George Greene wanted a medieval castle like a medieval lord. Iandra castle was built in 1908 with 57 rooms, castellations and towers but the construction was decidedly modern with reinforced concrete walls. The style was slightly Gothic but the interior was very Edwardian with wood panelling and Art Nouveau stained glass panels etc. The external concrete was rendered to appear like stone. It cost around £63,000 to build. The property included stables, a manager’s residence, outbuildings, blacksmith shop, sheds etc. Near the house was a chapel built in 1886 and a cemetery. When George Greene died in 1911 he was buried there. The estate was partially broken up in 1914 and most share farmers were able to buy their 640 acre blocks. I’Anson continued as manager for Elizabeth Greene until her death in 1927. He was then able to buy 2,500 acres and the castle. Later Iandra castle was used as the Methodist Boys Home from 1954 to 1974. The Methodist Boys Farm School was for 15 to 18 year old first time offenders. They were taught farming skills. The Methodist Church sold the centre in 1974.
Technical ability aside, the difference is commitment. Some people look at whatever they do as a job and then they want to be good craftsmen. Then there are people who do it as a passion. They really care about it., and it shows in their photographs.

Our friends have a mixed flock and gave us these eggs. I'm amazed at the color variations. This is slightly enhanced, but basically true to life.

Born from the same womb.
Grown up by sharing the same bed.
Even have the same look, with similar height.
The only difference they will have is the obvious pain through life.
I was a bit confused while i was thinking about the title of this photograph. They are identical twin. It was really very tough for me to find out, which one is who. I forgot their name. They are the nomadic brothers. The traditional floating people of Bangladesh. They used to move different places around the Bangladesh all over the year. These two brothers have no exterior differences till this days. But the difference they will have is the difficulties and pain of life through their journey.
When I went back home to Northern Wisconsin, there is very little if any light pollution. So you can see Billions and Billions of Stars.

Given, it is a week or so later in the month, but one week doesn't change the light that much. This year for reasons unknown, along with a name change, the Conway Scenic more unfortunately changed the time of this train so that it now comes around the corner an hour later than in all prior years. Couple with the fact that it runs late more often than not, the classic New England fall photo is now but a memory.
This was taken at 4:11 PM today and the shadows have long since swallowed up the Willey Brook Bridge and are advancing across the lower flank of Mount Willard ever further by the second.
With GP38 252 out of service the Mountaineer this season is being led by GP35 216 and GP9 1751, though in this view there is no way to know. The train is eastbound on the old Maine Central Mountain Sub as it curls around the bend working downgrade from the Gateway. Across the valley to the west the aptly named Silver Cascade shimmers down off the side of Mount Webster.

The Victorian Iron Horse Roundup, held from August 21-29, 2021 at the Cumbres & Toltec Scenic Railroad, was a gathering of vintage narrow gauge locomotives from the late Victorian era (1870-1900). The featured attractions were:
No. 4 ("Eureka") 4-4-0 (Baldwin, 1875) - Eureka & Palisade
"Glenbrook" 2-6-0 (Baldwin, 1875) - Carson & Tahoe Lumber & Fluming
No. 168, 4-6-0 (Baldwin, 1883) - Denver & Rio Grande
No. 425, 2-8-0 (Baldwin, 1895) - Denver & Rio Grande
No. 20, 4-6-0 (Schenectady, 1899) - Rio Grande Southern
A number of special excursions were made with Eureka, Glenbrook, 168, and 425 between Antonito, Colorado, and Chama, New Mexico over the former Denver & Rio Grande narrow gauge main line now operated by C&TS.

Day two of our Newnes excursion.. Time to light the fire and ... well.. take some shots of the night sky, the air had cleared.. and the moon wasn't due to come up for 4 or 5 hours.. so time for some star thingies... (I just love those technical terms.. really shows how knowledgeable I have become....)
Well what can I say.. this was an unexpected find in the shot... a Shooting STAR.. yippee.. sorry about that...
I had been taking some snaps, and seeing what works, and trying longer and longer exposures.. this was the longest at 15mins that worked... after this something happened.. see below for the shot and description...
Well, the Penrith Flickr meet up group went for a little weekend jaunt to Newnes, which is 150kms west of Sydney, Australia, in the wilds of our Blue Mountain National Park.

There are differences between the two, but another term for stained glass is leaded glass. We tend to see the images in stained glass, particularly ecclesiastical stained glass, as if they were two-dimensional cartoons without being aware of the lead that holds the composition together.
So, during an intermission in a recent nighttime performance at Portand's First Baptist Church, I took the opportunity to photograph a leaded glass window from the inside, thereby capturing the lead tracery as well as the jewel-like tones of the old glass.
As an aside, it would alarm some Baptists and some Muslims to learn that they share an aversion to representations of the human figure in their art. The First Baptist Church is a magnificent Richardsonian Romanesque structure whose interior decoration consists entirely of botanical motifs and geometric designs. Even Jesus's usual spot on the altar cross is vacant.
My immediate take on this fear of idolatry is that it silences an important source of stories. In other religious traditions, to enter a church is to be surrounded by images that repeat and reinforce the tenets of the faith. Looking at the ceiling of the First Baptist Church, with its abundant flowers and vines, will most likely remind the faithful that it's time to prune the shrubs.
Having said that, I discovered the Biblical characters at First Baptist inhabit the stained glass windows there. In fact, even this small sample of the glass there's a bit of the eagle of St. John the Evangelist. What happens when you see the eagle or, in this case, just a few of its wing feathers? Well, if you paid attention in Sunday School or Art History, you're drawn into a meditation upon "a figure of the sky, and believed by Christian scholars to be able to look straight into the sun. ... This symbolizes that Christians should look on eternity without flinching as they journey towards their goal of union with God."
I'm not endorsing the content of that message here, just admiring the universal human impulse to express complex ideas through symbolic images.

Her thoughts turned to this wonderful mix and how much the world could learn from these beautiful creatures. The lens found this special group of geese and she pondered for several minutes about differences and acceptance...
A medium-sized goose that breeds on the arctic tundra, the Snow Goose travels south in very large, high-flying, noisy flocks. The swirling white of a descending flock suggests snow, but among the white birds are darker individuals. Until recently, the Blue Geese, as the dark birds were called, were considered a separate species. They are now recognized as merely a dark form (or "morph") of the Snow Goose.

It was requested I take some photos showing the differences between my resin Kinoko Juice Kiki (Frozen Milk skin) and my Azone Hello Kikipop ABS/PVC Kiki who was released as a peachy normal skin. My resin Kiki has suede only in her neck, and so poses as she would "right out of the box."
Both can raise their arms palms up and down, however the resin Kiki's shoulders have more free range of motion. It is advised on Kikipop's paperwork to not push her shoulders beyond a comfortable range. Instead, rotate the arm so that it can be moved further.
Resin Kiki's biggest advantage over Kikipop is her thigh rotation range. Kikipop is only able to move her thighs forward and back.
Kikipop might have slightly better neck range. It looks much superior because she actually HOLDS it better. My resin Kiki came with sueding in her neck, but perhaps with hot glue sueding she'd be able to keep her head the same way Kikipop does. Resin Kiki's neck is the same as most BJDs, Kikipop is a ball peg similar to what I've seen on Nendoroids.
Both came with flat and grasped hands. Resin Kiki's attach by magnet, Kikipop by peg.
