"A Digby firetruck was first to a fire on Digby Neck this week. Actually... the truck was the fire."
This old mangle has certainly seen some action but I'm sure it would still have years of use in it!
Exhibit at The Castle Museum, York
This lovely big grasshopper was out and about despite the wind on Sunday. It had a pink hue that the photo didn't capture. Only at home did I notice the sore looking ring around its abdomen.

Death is Not The End
Nick Cave/ Bob Dylan
When you're sad and when you're lonely
And you haven't got a friend
Just remember that death is not the end
And all that you held sacred
Falls down and does not mend
Just remember that death is not the end
Not the end, not the end
Just remember that death is not the end
When you're standing on the crossroads
That you cannot comprehend
Just remember that death is not the end
And all your dreams have vanished
And you don't know what's up the bend
Just remember that death is not the end
Not the end, not the end
Just remember that death is not the end
When the storm clouds gather round you
And heavy rains descend
Just remember that death is not the end
And there's no-one there to comfort you
With a helping hand to lend
Just remember that death is not the end
Not the end, not the end
Just remember that death is not the end
For the tree of life is growing
Where the spirit never dies
And the bright light of salvation
Up in dark and empty skies
When the cities are on fire
With the burning flesh of men
Just remember that death is not the end
When you search in vain to find
Some law-abiding citizen
Just remember that death is not the end
Not the end, not the end
Just remember that death is not the end
Not the end, not the end
Just remember that death is not the end
Saw this right after it happened yesterday on Route 40. Notice the copious amounts of red Industrial Oil (hyrdaulic fluid, maybe?) pouring directly down the drain into the Chesapeake Bay. Sucks.
This is inside the Ironmonger's shop at the Black Country Museum in Dudley. This particular building used to be in Tower Street in Wolverhampton in its former life. Picture taken in 2005.
Funciona como hábitat de especies migratorias, especialmente de aves, hábitat de estadios juveniles de muchos peces, moluscos y crustáceos. Poseen una productividad primaria muy alta.
Asimismo, los manglares funcionan como una barrera contra la erosión eólica (fuertes vientos, huracanes), funcionan como fijadores de CO2 y ayudan a purificar las aguas cloacales transportadas por los afluentes.
Los manglares desempeñan un papel importante como fuente de recursos para las poblaciones locales:
•La pesca artesanal a nivel familiar
•Carbón de leña, madera de mangle para construcción y leña
•Extracción de sal
•Extracción de taninos
•Recreación y turismo sostenible
•Avistamiento de aves y otras especies
