Musk Lorikeet (Glossopsitta concinna)

 

With gentle soaking rain falling we are on a 'wet day timetable' today - isn't that fun when the kids are on school holidays!

So some images from the files today.

Diese BOX Autos (so kenne ich sie) haben mich in der Regel in der Vergangenheit katapultiert..

 

Australasian Gannet (Morus serrator)

 

A look back to this day in 2018.

I don't often see Gannets so thought I would post this image.

Going through my archive back to my first trip to Australia in 2011, this is sunrise at Port Douglas Northern Queensland.

A flashback to last December when there was less rain and more sunshine. We've had a very rainy week here in Pittsburgh and the forecast looks rough for tomorrow's cars and coffee as well.

Heading to Ottawa for a wedding this weekend so he's a flashback to the Canadian Rockies and Moraine Lake. Hard to beat the majesty of that place!

Rufous Bristlebird (Dasyornis broadbenti)

 

These are elusive birds, often heard and not seen, four were seen on this day at Split Point, Aireys Inlet.

Taken @ Mature and Young, Ropa Valley

Not much to shoot these days in my part of the world, so I thought I would do a puffin flashback. Puffins always make me feel better.

I haven’t posted a photo of a flower in months. Flowers are pretty scarce right now, so it’s time for me to post one. This one was taken just after sunrise in early July 2025.

 

The photo features a shallow depth of field, which brings the pink cosmos flower into clear focus while the background melts into a soft, blurry bokeh. The addition of a budding flower next to the fully opened bloom illustrates the flower's life cycle, and I think the subtle touches of the yellow flowers in the background contribute a lovely element to the image too.

Caper White (Belenois java)

 

One from this day last year.

I haven't seen many butterflies so far this Spring. Perhaps because it has been quite cool.

Nearly two years ago, I got my first taste of York Rail and more specifically, their last operational CF7. Here, paired with GP15 #1531, the duo heads for the small yard in York where they interchange with NS.

Went back to one of my older photos and touched it up a bit. Like the way it turned out, so I thought I'd post it

Black-shouldered Kite (Elanus axillaris) male

 

A look back to this day in 2020 and Bronson bringing a mouse to the nest for Belle.

They have been nesting continuously since this image was taken and I could probably have taken a similar shot today, had I the time to get down to Sneydes Rd.

Back to before the diamond celebration emerged, Minnie would always look amazing against those pinks and blues behind her.

A CP/INRD coke load rolls through Momence, IL on UP's Villa Grove Sub., a long time before I'd ever consider going to far off places like Evaro and Missoula to see blue and black EMD classics.

 

Four decades ago, you never knew what you might find at Union Pacific’s North Yard in Salt Lake City. On this fine July 25, 1978 evening we see a GP20, three GP9s, four SW9s, four NW2s, and a DD35. Note the accumulation of diesel fuel mixed with sand along the yard tracks, something you don’t see anymore.
