Alien invader, thats what I thought at first when I saw them on our maple stump laying their eggs, 3 inches long needle probing into wood was all new to me,
This is the most amazing part of the process, as the last two segments of her abdomen separate and a taut membrane between them provides the force to drive the oviposito, the straight part seen between her middle legs into solid wood.

Blue-winged Warbler. Michigan.
We were just starting out, I was standing stationary outside the vehicle, and the GWWA were singing, one on one side of the road, and one on the other, and a third a bit down the road, and I thought I heard a 'Bee Buzz' call coming from further off the right side of the road. I stood there listening and heard it, again and again, a bit distant to the chorus of the 3 GWWA. I was thinking either hybrid or Blue-winged warbler and carefully began walking thru an open grassy area to try to get closer to the call. We ended up in the shade, the forest at our backs, and the rising sun behind the trees, and the secondary growth habitat before us. Bee Buzz. Bee Buzz. Digital Plume Hunter saw him first. Just a Blue-winged Warbler. An invader into GWWA territory, and probably mated up with a female GWWA. Last year I posted a BWWA from my Michigan trip, but it was from an area further south of this GWWA area.
For those with more interest read up on how the Blue-winged Warbler population is moving north, gradually displacing the Golden-winged warb1er population, with cross-breeding, and the resulting hybrids which occur during the replacement process.
CP SD70ACU #6644 leads a unit canola meal train down into the valley at Gwynne Alberta. Painted to commemorate the June 6 1944 Allied invasion of France, the unit definitely stands out from the rest of the fleet!
Rapistrum rugosum, commonly known as bastard cabbage, tall mustard weed or giant mustard, grows in tall rows along the entrance road and parking lot at Waco Mammoth National Monument in Waco Texas. This plant originated in southern Europe and is an aggressive, invasive plant that can surround and, because of their height, block sunlight from other wild flowers. They have been know to take over entire fields where bluebonnets and other flowers once thrived. Hopefully the National Park Service will take steps to control this invader.
Northumberland is England’s northernmost county, and it sits right on the border with Scotland. It’s historical hot property, a land long fought over by kingdoms and invaders – evident in its many castles, citadels and the 2,000-year-old Hadrian’s Wall.

I have been watching the old B&W western series "Wagon Train" on METV and found it interesting how our sensibilities have changed since it was a hit from 1957 to 1965 on first NBC and then on ABC. In a large number of the shows there is an American Indian on a hillside watching the train. The shots are always from the POV of the people on the wagon train. I thought it would be interesting to do an image from the other point of view and show what the Indians saw - invaders coming boldly into their territory. That is what inspired me to make this image for Sliders Sunday. .
Early morning "moonset" at the Buckeye Municipal Airport. The first rays of morning light warm the face of this Douglas A-26B/B-26B Invader. While it has seen better days, it still has character. Unfortunately, the local pigeon population has not been kind to this old warrior.
To our amazement the local Starlings invaded our small garden while we were both sitting on the lawn :-) A female came too close to focus with my 500pf

Invading Japanese Beetles are covering the slowly blooming Hibiscus bushes at the park. Very shallow DOF. Have them in other areas, as well. Always some but they are everywhere, filling the inner blooms on some. Tried to get photos of a bee in another bloom but didn't turn out well. That bloom was totally wilted later. Hoping for more blooms and bees soon. Very hot and not much rain recently so not sure how they will do this year.
This is the coolest mug. A good friend got me this as a gift (thanks Dawn! *hugs!* Love ya!) Basically, it's a plain black space-themed mug with no invaders...when it's at room temperature. When you add hot liquid, invaders appear! As above. I had just poured a bunch of hot water in and the invaders appeared, how cool is that?! I'm such a geek. ^_^
Space invader is back.
The pitch of the movie is the same as in round n°1 :
So I'm driving in the icelandic east fjords. Basically, I can't see a thing.
The cloud surrounding me is so thick the sunlight has become an abstract notion.
Until the next turn. From it and it seems magic, the sky is so clear that you should be able to see Pluto's tail.
Going along one of the fjords, I can now see the other side.
Except that I can't.
Another fluffly monstruosity is filling up the lower layers of the sky and most layers of emerged land.
That tells me that I should take my time going there, enjoy the sun for a bit, that if I couldn't see anything before, it must have come from quite some picturesque cloud if taken from the outside.

To show the merger with the Milwaukee Road, Soo Line sent some Hiawatha SD40-2's to the Soo, like here at Schiller Park in 1985. Most Soo employees weren't thrilled to see these on the property because it was a sign of things to come when Schiller Park was closed as Soo's main yard in Chicago and operations moved to the Milwaukee at Bensenville.
I lived in a Soo Line household and Milwaukee Road was not a name to be mentioned.
The saucers are loaded and the forces are locked on and registered!
Who's going this year? I need to know who to bug and invade and avoid the silly "OMG you were there!?!? " game ....
