The Pitt Wildlife Management Area offers the perfect set of trails for nature lovers and bird watchers as well as those looking for a nice easy walk along the dikes of Pitt Lake.

  

Starting from the Grant Narrows parking lot, walk east past the boat launch area to the metal gate and continue along the Pitt Lake Dike. A short distance after leaving the parking area, you approach a wooden viewing lookout. Climb the stairs to the top and take in the views of Pitt Lake and the marsh area as well as the nature living throughout the area.

  

Thank-you for all the overwhelming support and many friendships.

Stay healthy

 

Happy Clicks,

long black train

josh turner

 

There's a long black train

Coming down the line

Feeding off the souls that are lost and crying

Rails of sin only evil remains

Watch out brother for that long black train

Look to the heavens

You can look to the skies

You can find redemption

Staring back into your eyes

There is protection and there's peace the same

Burnin' your ticket for that long black train

'Cause there's victory in the Lord I say

Victory in the Lord

Cling to the Father and his holy name

And don't go riding on that long black train

There's an engineer on that long black train

Making you wonder if your ride is worth the pain

He's just a waitin' on your heart to say

Let me ride on that long black train

But you know there's victory in the Lord I say

Victory in the Lord

Cling to the Father and his holy name

And don't go riding on that long black train

Well I can hear the whistle from a mile away

It sounds so good

But I must stay away

That train is a beauty making everybody stare

But its only destination is the middle of nowhere

But you know there's victory in the Lord I say

Victory in the Lord

Cling to the Father and his holy name

And don't go riding on that long black train

I said cling to the father and his holy name and don't go ridin' on that black train

Yes watch out brother for that long black train

That devil's a drivin' that long black train

Dinner Island Ranch Wildlife Management Area, Hendry County, Florida, USA.

The male Painted Bunting (Passerina ciris) is North America's most colorful songbird. The Painted Bunting's breeding range is along the US Atlantic coast from Delaware south to coastal Georgia and in the South Central US as far west as southern Arizona and New Mexico. They appear in South Florida only during the winter migration season. They also winter in Mexico, Central America, and the Caribbean.

The organization is not quite in place yet, so our new First Cat has not been appointed. Rags is the most experienced, but less ambitious than Caithlin, who might be an upcoming queen. For now however, they seem to share the responsibility in harmony... :)

While hunting for a composition, I came across this rocky area at Marshall Point. It looked like it had potential, so I examined it further from various perspectives. As in Risk Management, one hedges against the future hoping for the best outcome. And since it is always a crap shoot, we do our best to prepare as best we can.

 

The sunset may or may not arrive. But 80% of successful landscape photography is being there. After that, having a scenic landscape combined with sunset colours, help with the final result. The rest is in the form of technique and can be found on numerous YouTube videos.

I took this standing in the reeds to get as close to the scene as I could. There were several inches of water underfoot, or even over foot! The ground was very unstable and tripod management rather tricky! When I was back on terra firma I realised that I had lost a lens cap, and the trigger for my remote. I wondered if I could retrace my steps try to find them, but it was getting too dark and had a 30 minute hike back to civilisation, so I decided against it, cut my losses (it could have been worse!) and get back before nightfall. I do hope it was worth it LOL!

Look out point - From the top, you get bird's eye views of the surrounding area. Pitt Lake ( left ) and the marshy, wetlands (right)

 

There are a large variety of animals who live in the Pitt Wilderness Management Area including geese, ducks, Ospreys, Great Blue Herons, eagles, and other mammals such as beavers, deer, and bears. During the late spring, many geese and ducks can be seen protecting their young goslings from predators. During the evening, beavers can occasionally be spotted swimming along the shore of the dikes.

A section of the vast Forumile Management Area east of Buena Vista, Colorado. The rounded peaks in the far background are Buffalo Peaks and the Buffalo Peaks Wilderness. The rock formation in the center is called Castle Rock. I often spot Bighorn Sheep near and around it. The area is jointly managed by the US Forest Service, BLM, Friends of Fourmile and other groups.

Excerpt from www.flamboroughtoday.com/spotlight/waterdown-village-welc...:

 

A highlight of fall in Waterdown Village is the annual Scarecrow Walk, starting in this eighth year on October 11 and running right until Hallowe’en.

 

“Once again, our local businesses and community partners will display uniquely decorated scarecrows, animating our streetscape and giving people of all ages more than 130 reasons to Walk Waterdown,” exclaimed Waterdown Village BIA Board of Management Chair, Amanda Groves.

 

She added, “The Scarecrow Walk has fast become a signature event for the community. Clues featuring mugshots of favourite monsters will be placed on 20 randomly selected scarecrows for scavengers to find for a chance to win shopping spree prizes. You can discover new businesses, take selfies with your favourite scarecrow entries, and test your detective skills to find all 130+ scarecrows and all 20 clues, for a wonderful day out for the whole family.”

07/06/2022, Port of Rotterdam's vessel traffic control center.

Koningin Emmaboulevard 9, Hoek van Holland, Netherlands.

 

The centre forms part of Rotterdam's VTS control (Vessel Traffic Management Service)

 

The Hoek van Holland traffic center supervises shipping in the sectors Maas Aanloop (VHF-1), Pilot Maas (VHF-2), Maasmond (VHF-3), Rozenburg (VHF-65), Europoort (VHF-66) and the ship -ship channel (VHF-10). The traffic centers themselves can be reached on VHF-11.

 

A very busy control centre, supervising a large proportion of the enormous port's vessel movements.

 

Its predecessor, at the same location, was formerly situated at the seaward end of the road 'Seinpad' (Sign path), until the creation of the Koningin Emmaboulevard, which is closer to the New Waterway, and incidentally, allows tourists and spectators to park adjacent to the river/waterway.

 

The name 'signpath' refers to the previous (pre-electronic radar and radio communications), when a large semaphore/sign structure stood in its place, to order, warn, and advise, incoming and outgoing ships of traffic conditions.

Leftover from the era of Big Timber, nearly 380,000 miles of roads riddle our forests. Unneeded and unmaintained roads are leading to a host of environmental problems.
