Seventh image in my Bird Art series...
The wind chill was 2 degrees below zero fahrenheit this evening at the harbor as I braved the cold to find and photograph the Snowy owl. That bird was nowhere to be found, but I did spend some time with this sweet Mourning Dove on the rocks.
I love their docile and trusting nature. They always allow me to capture some nice images, for which I'm grateful.
It's been several years since the Grosbeaks last visited my yard. This year I have Black-headed and Evening Grosbeaks at my feeders.
BNSF 1953 West charges down the Lakes Sub. with the Rapids Local on the evening of Aug. 8, 2017. This pair of SD40-2s has been holding the Rapids Local assignment for quite sometime out of Superior.
I actually liked pinstriped whiteface BN SD40-2s back in the day, but don't care much for this "Greenface" 1953. I would have much rather had a pair of oranges or have the consist flipped, but had to take what I could get as there was very nice light south of Superior and this was the only train I could find moving towards the setting sun. Still nice to see the SD40-2 on the mainline, pulling a good sized train at mainline speeds.
With a late call time out of Superior, by the time the 1953 stops to do work at Cloquet the sun will have set. Not sure if has been running later lately or this was an unusual later departure.
