Due to a shortage in horsepower on the day, LVR owned locomotives 4716 and 4702 were quickly put to work to run a container train to Port Botany and back to Enfield for SSR on one of their Linx shuttles. T171 is seen here departing Botany after loading a few boxes.

Because of its feather creases this catbird has a very grumpy look, and he may actually have been kind of grumpy on this day. i was photographing a painted bunting when this catbird landed at my eye level in a nearby tree behind me - and began making loud noises. He was louder than a cat and indeed seemed grumpy. So, i turned around and took its picture. The bird then got quiet and flew off.
What was it all about? i'm sure the bird wasn't calling me away from the bunting to take its pic instead.... or maybe ... aww.

I wonder where the rest of the dwarfs went?

With failing light (for landscape photography) I suggested to Iain that we made our last stop at Troup Head Nature Reserve to check out his new lens. Well out of my comfort zone, both perched on a cliff edge and shooting things that move, I have to admit to it being an enjoyable hour or so; I even managed a few half decent shots of these elegant birds in flight. My favourite image though was of this particular gannet who seemed non too pleased with my camera pointed at 'him'.
Crossed paths with a cute (albeit grumpy-looking) juvenile Gopher Tortoise at a local park. He/she was busy munching away on greenery and was relatively unphased by my presence, pausing only for a second as I knelt on the ground with my camera. I snapped a handful of photos and quietly observed from a distance. And before I moved on, I made sure to tell him/her how cute they were. 😍
The Gopher Tortoise (Gopherus polyphemus) is a native species to Florida and is protected by law. Although it doesn’t happen often because human development encroaches on their habitat, it’s always a delight to see these creatures in the wild. 🐢

I stepped from my cabin and went in search of wild blueberries. Much to my dismay - they are few and far between this year. The bears are going to be very disappointed, and may be just a little grumpy, when it is time for them to gorge on berries. I sure hope they can find their version of a carbohydrate, before they snuggle down in their dens for the winter.
* I find this image amusing, as the rotted leaf to the right of the berries, seems to be staring right at the berries.

Look at that body language. "Hrrummphhh...I am grumpy today, so just leave me alone!" After taking his portrait, I did!
He looks even grumpier in full screen mode :-)
Bit of a crooked snout and flat chin. This was at the end of our first Geocaching walk. Bought a GPS gizmo from a friend and thought we'd do a five mile walk along the Thames path, hunting for caches as we went: brilliant fun, well worth trying if you've not tried it.
Just a slight crop.

Piccadilly Circus, together with Leicester Square and Trafalgar Square, is one of the most famous squares in London. Regardless of the time, it is always pleasantly busy at Piccadilly Circus. It is best known for its huge video screens with advertising and dazzling neon lighting. The square is therefore regularly compared to another famous square with neon signs, Times Square in New York.
This owl appears to be giving me a grumpy look through the bushes, but in reality it was just shaking and preening itself.
This crow was sat hunched up in the pouring rain, he was trying to shelter under the canopy and it wasn't working. He didn't look like he was having a great day.
Make sure it is fast, he replied when I asked for permission to photograph. He was paid to walk around and entertain customers. There was a female staff to guide him the way. Easy money.

I felt an instant connection with the chap in the middle, he looked how I felt about the weather this weekend in Birmingham.

I think I might be getting sick. Grr. I typical break out a LOT before I get sick and as you can maybe see, zits! Yay for me who has never worn make up!
I went out and ran errands today. People were just rude, left and right. The girl at B&N gave me evil looks paying with THREE different Gift Cards. When she was done ringing me up she didn't even say thank you, or anything just shoved the bag at me. Ugh.
At least, anything, today, I ate Chipotle and it was good. +
Along with the processing of this photograph, it fits my mood, in my eyes, well. I can't do the straight out of camera thing often because the colors for me make the vibe, not the photograph, in many cases.
Ah, this is life. Up and down, around, left, right, sideways, and upside down. Today just felt like the world was against me.

Well, perhaps not, but certainly intimidating.
Part of my effort to post some different types of photos.
This menacing looking eel was photographed at the Scripps Aquarium in La Jolla, California.
