The Kingsville dock is located on the north shore of Lake Erie in southwestern Ontario. Not only is it the home of many commercial fishing boats, but also serves as the winter dock for the MV Pelee Islander ll. This ferry, along with it’s fleet mate the MV Jiimaan, transports people and vehicles from March to December to Pelee Island, the most southern inhabited part of Canada.

Gebänderter Fidschileguan ♂ (Brachylophus fasciatus)
Der Gebänderte Fidschileguan (Brachylophus fasciatus) ist eine von vier Arten der Fidschileguane.
Der Gebänderte Fidschileguan erreicht eine Kopf-Rumpf-Länge von durchschnittlich 17 bis 18 Zentimetern. Die Gesamtlänge liegt bei rund 70 Zentimetern, der Schwanz kann also über 40 Zentimeter lang werden. Das Gewicht beträgt bis zu 200 Gramm. Es gibt aber auch größere Exemplare mit fast einem Meter Länge. Er ist somit ein großer Vertreter aus der Familie der Leguane, jedoch kleiner als der Grüne Leguan, dem er ähnlich sieht. Die Tiere haben einen flachen Körperbau. Auf dem Rücken tragen sie einen kleinen, kaum sichtbaren Kamm. Der lange Schwanz läuft zum Ende hin spitz zu. Die Finger und die Zehen sind mit sehr langen, spitzen Krallen versehen. Das Weibchen ist einheitlich grün gefärbt. Das Männchen hingegen trägt ein Bändermuster aus hellgrünen und dunkelgrünen, dicken Querstreifen am Körper, der Hals ist mit einem hellen Fleck versehen.
The Banded Fijiguana (Brachylophus fasciatus) ♂ is one of four species of Fijian iguanas.
The banded Fijiguana reaches an average head-torso length of 17 to 18 centimeters. The total length is around 70 centimetres, so the tail can be over 40 centimetres long. The weight is up to 200 grams. But there are also larger specimens with a length of almost one meter. It is therefore a large representative of the iguana family, but smaller than the green iguana, which it looks like. The animals have a flat physique. On their backs they wear a small, barely visible comb. The long tail tapers towards the end. The fingers and toes are provided with very long, pointed claws. The female is uniformly green in colour. The male, on the other hand, wears a ribbon pattern of light green and dark green, thick horizontal stripes on the body, the neck is provided with a light spot.

An unusual visitor to Scotland which is rarely seen outside of Germany - Arriving at Cumbernauld presumably for maintenance at Cormack Aircraft (Islander Aircraft Ltd).

Canadian Pacific GP38AC 3002 rests next to lines of stored GSNX coal hoppers at Muskego Yard, Milwaukee, after being dropped off by a manifest. The 3002 is one of a batch of nineteen GP38ACs built by Canada's GMDD in 1970-71. The GP38AC, as built by both GMDD and EMD, is essentially a standard GP38 but uses an AR-10 alternator instead of the GP38's generator. 261 units were produced for ten railroads and one utility company; almost all that have not been scrapped have since been rebuilt, but CP's are an exception. They are also notable for the fact that, for a significant portion of their careers, a group was assigned to CP's isolated trackage on Vancouver Island, BC, where they were at some point relettered for E&N Railfreight (Esquimalt & Nanaimo, today's Southern Railway of Vancouver Island, a subsidiary of the Washington Group's Southern Railway of British Columbia, SRY) before being returned to the rest of the CP system (obviously they were re-relettered). A standard geep at Muskego was a sight for sore eyes, as GP33C-ECOs have been the mainstays of yard and local power in Milwaukee for a number of years now. This unit would later go on to Portage, for local work based from there.
It takes all the young men and women from the village in Padgudpud, Philippines, working as a team, to haul in a long net full of small tuna late in the afternoon.

Oh, this IS my photo.
A few of my teen islanders performing a dance for Tangaroa, god of the sea. For Miss Teen USA on InSim. Interesting tidbit: Tangaroa is described as being yellow-haired, so when Pacific islanders encountered Europeans for the first time, they thought they were his children.

The well known Islanders are having a party because that is my last Iron builder entry.
This is my 13th build for the Iron Builder with Matthew De Lanoy.
The seed part is the Brick Round 2x2 Dome Bottom.
The Pelee Islander II sits at the government dock on the Island, waiting until the morning to take birders back to the mainland in Leamington after a week of the Springsong Festival. Built in Chile, it gives the Island ferry service greater capacity and the ability to work in worse weather than its predecessors, which came in handy last spring. We are booking travel for this May and getting pretty excited.
