The hummers are back!

I have been looking for them but couldn't find any for the past month. But today had a casual encounter with a few feisty ones! I was with my macro gear and wasn't prepared for a telephoto shot! This is with a 150mm with a 1.4X tele. Will be there again with my longer lens soon!

A few of the sharp ones that I could manage with my Macro tele setup!

The Dinorwic quarry is a large former slate quarry, now home to the Welsh National Slate Museum, located between the villages of Llanberis and Dinorwig in North Wales. It was the second largest slate quarry in Wales, indeed in the world, after the neighbouring Penrhyn quarry near Bethesda.

It covered more than 700 acres (283 ha) consisting of two main quarry sections with 20 galleries in each and a number of ancillary workings. Extensive internal tramway systems connected the quarries using inclines to transport slate between galleries.

As the tide was low, spotted them scratching the mud for shellfish.

Sooooo, let's get the pedal to the metal and start digging!!!

Digging down for the slurry channels

In the beginning of December 2010 there were heavy rains in the area of Epirus Greece which resulted in a flood over a vast area.A part of the Greek highway A2 ( Egnatia) was shut down for 10 days as a result of over 4 feet of water overflowing it.

This excavator was abandoned near the highway.

Everyone watching mike dig out a feature.

Harvesting cockles at the shores of Bayan Mutiara Penang. They get their cockles fresh from the muddy beach, preparing for the lunch feast.

I always worry for contamination in the cockles, cases of lead and mercury(heavy metal) poisoning are very rare - but something to be alert of. Twenty years ago, this was in the middle of the sea. This shore is part of a reclaimed land that become Bayan Mutiara.

He seemed to be enjoying himself, digging a huge hole in the sand, and why not!

Uncovered a very large silver maple root, right in the corner where I'd planned to plant a red twig dogwood. Rethinking plan; consulting with county rain garden maven (who happens to be our neighbor).

Installing a rain garden at the bungalow. First step: dig out ~9 inches of soil in the ~100 sq ft garden bed. 6 inches of that will be replaced (with compost + soil, then a layer of mulch).

to dig a hole!

Digging!

With my Uncle Eric at Maghull, August 1952.

At the end of the dig, students reach under the stones to obtain a carbon dating sample

Gotta love this. I know I did.

What the working navvy will be wearing this summer.

This shovel has been at this monument for some time - why?

I seem to be spending way too much time in graveyards...

So glad my teens still like to play in the dirt.

I love the way he looks so guilty.

The overcast and unappealing light was not a surprise on my return trip from Oregon via Seattle in March. In fact, I barely shot a thing while waiting for the eastbound Empire Builder at King Street Station but the kid in me still has a hard time passing up heavy equipment at work. (3-10-2015)

Just a few bottles from the '30s I dug up recently. The Guelph 5¢ G.B.E. quart has a chip and some pings along the top etc but from what I gather this bottle is rare so I'm keeping it. The rest of the bottles are okay and are now soaking in soapy water.
