This time it was an Adonis’ Ladybird (Hippodamia variegata) that met a 7-spot (Coccinella septempunctata) on a narrow tree branch.
As well as the much smaller size the body shape and head pattern are useful features to separate the species.
Adonis’ is a rarely reported species in Northumberland the ones I found last year were some of the first records for the county. I’ve found them in more than one place both at the coast and around Newcastle so likely to be more widespread than previously realised

Gannet Week: Day 4: After committing to a lifetime relationship, our frisky gannet couple Grace and Waldo take a honeymoon to the edge of the rookery, where they engage in a cringy public display of affection.
One of the triplets. I did get to see a glimpse of all 3 at the same time but they are just like kids and weren't all looking at the same time for the picture. Lots of wing stretching happening, wouldn't be surprised if they get out soon and test them out.
It must have been a chilly June morning (about 6 AM) when this image was taken as the beautiful female mountain bluebird has puffed up some of her feathers.
These special birds will be back in about 7 or 8 weeks. Given the cold and snow in Alberta at the moment, it seems like a pipedream. However, there is lots of time for the sun to warm things up as the days get longer.
It's a foggy morning as Norfolk Southern train 37Q darts past train 16T. The two freights are meeting at Cleversburg Junction, the site of an old spur to a nearby iron ore mining operation that's been gone for more than a century. The rumble from NS 9165 grows louder as the engineer charges up the air and gets ready to roll. The old Conrail tri-lights are blinking an Approach Limited, letting him know he can proceed east on the Lurgan Branch.

It is happening again.
Checking your phone won’t stop it.
Full circle, a rugged wheel has turned and stopped
As if retired from its last monster truck rally
Its shadow as heavy as its material density
You sat there all day distracting yourself as usual
But that wheel remained like a portal
If you went up to it, it could be dangerous
First, an arm and then a foot might pass through.
You can see yourself and your life in a different timeline
One in which you didn’t waste your days.
An adventurer for the ages.
You traveled to all the wonders
Had no regrets
Enjoyed each moment of your existence
And one day that other self heard a faint
Ringing in your other ears
A sharp pain behind your alternative eyes
And you just knew, didn’t you?
We tire of the same realities day after day.
I glimpsed a girl passing through
A young human can still eclipse the whole world.
Speeding like a scene in a fast forwarded film
Upset because she had lost a part of herself
A single eyelash carrying the weight of reality
Landing on her cheek softly like a secret
Stolen by a single breeze
A wish she would never get back again.

January.
January gets a bad rap. Yeah.... the holidays that most people look forward to are over... the next paid holiday (at least in my world) is Memorial Day! Most of us have eaten our way through the holidays and have now made ridiculous resolutions about losing weight, exercising and getting healthy... along with numerous other resolutions that rarely survive the first month of the year. It's cold. It's dark.... it's dark when we get up and dark when we get out of work. It's like an endless Monday.... (well, for most people... I, personally love Mondays, so that's not really how I feel!) ... 31 days straight of
Mondays for everyone else. And speaking of Mondays... and survival... here's another fun fact (almost as fun as the one about owls eating the heads off of pheasants).... The third Monday of January is regarded as the most depressing day of the year. It actually has the highest suicide rate of any other day of the year. Yup.... did you know that? And it's coming.... I'm going to survive Monday... because, hey! it's my favorite day of the week... now, Tuesday... that's another story altogether.
Anyway.... there are good things about January. It's a "catch up" month. We get to do things that we didn't have time to do because we were prepping for the holidays. It's dark... so we get to come home from work and put pajamas on at 7:00 (some of us are even asleep by 7:30!!) So, we get to catch up on sleep. It's cold... so we get to use wool.... wool blankets, wool scarves, wool sweaters, wool fingerless gloves. I love wool. Oh...and we get to wear many layers... which hide the extra pounds that have been added due to all of the chocolate covered goodies that appeared in the kitchen at work during all of December. It's cold and dark... so it gives us an excuse to curl up under blankets, with a good book, and go to sleep early. And if there's something you are supposed to do, that you don't want to.... you can pray for snow to get out of it... or just use the excuse... it's too cold. And if you do go out, like when I go to Waterloo Village every day...you have the place all to yourself (because it's cold... and it's dark!!) ... but having the place all to myself... PERFECT!! Just the way I like it! There... don't you feel better already? Yeah, I have no problem with January, and it's almost over anyway (although I have several other things to whine and complain about that aren't even close to being over... ugh)

Wellington wheat farm
Canon 350D, 18-55mm lens
This was taken some time in September.
On a film & photographic shoot for a whiskey company, we were eventually driving around searching for a wheat field to give the production that 'natural' touch.
My friend Marc grabbed the dv camera at one point and started filming some of the field while yours truly had his Canon nearby and snapped this for a personal shot.

No, it's not really a Soo Line train, but it's as close as I could get at the time!
