This Green Heron was hanging around one of the ponds at Fort Whyte for a good portion of the summer... here he is sitting up in a tree that is about 8' above the shore line...

******************************************************************************
From a distance, the Green Heron is a dark, stocky bird hunched on slender yellow legs at the water’s edge, often hidden behind a tangle of leaves. Seen up close, it is a striking bird with a velvet-green back, rich chestnut body, and a dark cap often raised into a short crest. These small herons crouch patiently to surprise fish with a snatch of their daggerlike bill. They sometimes lure in fish using small items such as twigs or insects as bait. (Always fun to watch them on the hunt.)

Monorail Green slowly glides into Disney's Polynesian Resort, ready to transport guests to the Magic Kingdom or points beyond. I really love riding the monorails! They are more of an attraction to me than just a form of transportation. Although the ride going in is always a lot happier and more fun than the ride going out!
This is Rudbeckia 'Prairie Sun'. Saw these in a catalogue, thought they were cute.......and expensive. So I bought seeds, et voila! 8 plants for 5 bucks. I like how husky and strong they are.
55008 "The Green Howards" departs St Helens Junction with 1E99 1305 Liverpool to York on 14th October 1981.
The final month of BR Deltic operation saw many visits of the class to Liverpool on the Pennine trains, unfortunately as an impoverished 16 year old it was often as much as I could do to take the train as far as the miserly 12 miles to St Helens Junction - this being one such occasion.
It looked like a day of travelling out to St Helens Junction hoping for a Deltic on an incoming Pennine as I'd taken 47477 out there on the 1105 to York for 46046 back.
The scene above has changed drastically, with O.L.E. covering the area and houses alongside the railway where the old colliery and associated land was.
I've just found out from the wonderful Curator at the Bird Kingdom that these are not Japanese White-Eyes or Mejiro. They are White-Eye Zosterop. (family: Zosteropidae. The members of Zosteropidae, with the exception of a few species, are marked by a ring of tiny, white feathers surrounding the eye and are also known as silvereyes and spectacle birds. )
