This is a Townsend's solitaire. It was seen on Sunday at Koll Center wetlands, and soon had attracted bird watchers and photographers to try to catch a view of it. I wasn't fortunate enough on Sunday, but did get to see it today - a lifer for me! Thanks to Keith Todd for calling my attention to the location!

The North Rim of the Grand Canyon, at 8000 ft., provides one with an expansive view of the canyon, sky and the weather that passes through. Watching these storms was musical. As they say, "all politics is local", so too with rain!
Many thanks to you ALL for the views, faves and comments you make on my shots it is very appreciated.
These guys were busy mowing and again I noticed despite the noise this attracted several birds a kestrel a buzzard and a black-backed gull all seemed to be taking easy pickings from the ground, as always my shots of the birds were not worthy of posting but I still enjoyed watching.
El recorrido por la costa vizcaína nos llevará a conocer un mundo de rocas y acantilados, de pequeños puertos y ensenadas, de playas abrigadas de arena muy fina, en una costa escarpada, sólo suavizada por los estuarios que se crean en las desembocaduras de los ríos. Retomando la carretera de la costa de Bakio hacia Bermeo, antes de llegar al Cabo de Matxitxako, avistaremos San Juan de Gaztelugatxe, un islote inhóspito de atrevidos acantilados que guarda en su cima la línea inconfundible de una iglesia y que se une a tierra firme por un estrecho pasadizo que salta sobre dos arcos de piedra. 231 escalones nos separan del templo, con la huella de un pie en el primero y en el último, que las leyendas locales atribuyen a San Juan, cuya imagen se venera en la ermita.
I am blessed with very good train connections into London from my local station - less than 20 minutes to London Bridge and a few minutes more for Victoria. These stairs are a recent addition to my local station. Could I have been the first photographer to get a shot of them I wonder?
At a local park not more than a few miles from my house. At low tide there is solid stretch of land that connects to the small island just right of center. This area is a designated bird sanctuary home to gulls, Canadian geese, egrets, swans, hawks, flacons and various species of mallards. This area is not recommended during hot summer days as mosquitos, deer flies and ticks will bite you to pieces.

Friday's R-MRL841 tends to return east with a healthy cut of power, as they often bring back the Logan local power for relay to Livingston or points east. This week's train was no exception, and with an extra GP9 in the mix, they ended up having five engines. After building their train at Logan, they wasted no time heading east - we beat them from the west end of Manhattan siding here to the west end of Bozeman siding with seconds to spare.

While not surprised, I was saddened last week when it was announced that the BNSF would acquire the Montana Rail Link (MRL). I made a few trips to visit the railroad, usually with Mike Danneman, and quickly became a fan. The big attractions were vintage locomotives, friendly employees and superb scenery.
