Those who have seen my last couple of postings (Red-bellied Woodpeckers) may recognize the stump this Starling is sitting on. Having finally retired, I now have the time to concentrate on taking pictures.
I have now visited this spot in the woods for the last week, spent 4-6 hours sitting in the Ram (yes, I'm inherently lazy) and have taken about 12,000 images. Truth be told, I'm starting to see this stump in my dreams arrggghhh!
However, the action has been unreal. I will share a number of "stump" images in the next few days. To me its a lesson in patience - pick a spot and the birds will come.

We are lucky in Florida to have the second largest nesting population of Bald Eagles in the United States behind Alaska. They are such a beautiful and amazing bird to watch, hear calling or simply watch them raise their young!! This one is making nest repairs and is on final approach!

En fechas veraniegas como es en el caso de dicha captura. Tuve la oportunidad de poder ofrecerme unas merecidas vacaciones en mi querido pueblo Villasur, Provincia de Castilla y León. Uno de eso tal días donde podía realmente tener mi merecido tiempo, Así fue. Normalmente y por si acaso me lleve mi equipo de fotografía. Aprovechando esos días me pase a unos lugares donde realmente nunca había explorado y menos poder sacar alguna foto que otra. Mirando y explorando como no con GPS actuales. Realmente era necesario. En mi opinión he tenido que buscarme la vida para poder encontrar algo de ferrocarril cerca de donde estaba. Como veis en este caso en la localización exactamente en Dueñas, A fueras de Valladolid, No me esperaba algo así, Fue una autentica pasada de sitio. Es que positiva mente opino que lo tenia todo lo bueno, El terreno, La luminosidad, Margen de espacio. En fin sin palabras. Cabe decir que a lo lejos veremos la Estación de Dueñas actualmente. Después de estar normalmente 2 duras horas a pleno sol de la tarde, Un día de diario pudimos ver bastante movimiento. La verdad es que me sorprendió. Como podéis ver en la captura ya con las ultimas luces de la tarde. Debo recalcar que en mis carpetas de archivos no suelo tener normalmente cazado este tipo de circulaciones, Es mas casi prácticamente imposible poder cazar este tipo de composición exacta en Vizcaya. Como podéis ver pude cazar a estas doble Primas 333.392+333.345 formándose un bonito bobinero corto, A muy buena marcha minutos mas antes de salir de Venta de Baños. Con destino a Salamanca.
Un Saludo
We went back last Sunday to see if the Ravens were still building their nest. It seems they have almost finished. After the bulk of construction is complete, they'll line the cup of the nest with soft materials like grass, tree bark, moss, flowers, paper or fur. It looks like they have almost finished so she will soon be laying her eggs.

En mi Flickr ya hay una versión antigua de esta foto pero ahora la reincorporo con un nuevo revelado y eligiendo la última foto de una ráfaga de cuatro disparos. Aprovechando una copiosa nevada, aquel día nos acercamos hasta Gujuli para fotografiar los tres trenes diurnos que por entonces partían de Bilbao a primeras horas de la mañana. El Diurno gallego era el menos interesante de todos por culpa de su paupérrima composición. Pero aquel día apareció con un regalo en forma de 269 remolcada y encabezado por la inefable 269.908, una locomotora que se distinguía de sus "hermanas" por llevar la numeración frontal en un lugar atípico y por el aparatoso lijado de la carrocería a la altura de las rejillas de ventilación laterales. También era una de las Mitsubishi 269 que más veces se quedaba tirada pero, pese a todo, no os imagináis el cariño que le pude llegar a coger en aquellos tiempos....
In my Flickr there is already an old version of this photo but now I reincorporate it with a new development and choosing the last photo of a burst of four shots. Taking advantage of a copious snowfall, that day we approached Gujuli to photograph the three day trains that were then leaving Bilbao in the early hours of the morning. The Galician Day train was the least interesting of all because of its very poor composition. But that day it appeared with a gift in the form of a 269 towed and headed by the ineffable 269.908, a locomotive that was distinguished from its "sisters" by carrying the frontal numbering in an atypical place and by the savory sanding of the body at the height of the side ventilation grilles. It was also one of the Mitsubishi 269 that had more breakdowns but, despite everything, you can not imagine the affection that I professed to this locomotive in those times ....
Después de fotografiarlo en la estación de Santa Eulália (con luz bastante pésima), tocó echar una carrera para cazarlo en el siguiente punto donde tendria una luz aceptable, ya que el horario del traslado y la dificultad de sitios de la línea sumados a un contraluz hacía realmente difícil defenderse con esta pieza para que saliera el frontal mínimamente iluminado.
Ahí le vemos habiendo dejado Assumar a pocos kilómetros, aproximándose a Portalegre, donde me tocó iniciar el regreso a España, no sin antes fotografiar el Allan saliendo de Elvas.

Als full time vader en echtgenoot sta ik, op de incidentele hoofdlijnritten van de SSN of VSM en de evenementen na, bijna niet meer langs het spoor. Wat ik aan NS (of andere maatschappijen) materieel fotografeer is vaak bijvangst van stoom of museummaterieel waar ik voor op uit was getrokken. Gelukkig komt het nog wel een enkele keer voor dat ik even tijd heb, maar dat is helaas maar sporadisch. Dit keer stonden wij voor de Stoomtreindagen van de SSN in de omgeving van Moordrecht. Deze dag was het weer minder; bewolkt maar tegen het eind van de dag brak het zonnetje toch nog door. De DE3 kwam ook nog langs en kon ik nog mooi meepakken
As a full-time father and husband I hardly make pictures of regular trains. Almost only when the SSN or VSM has one of their rare main line trips, I am able to catch some regular trains too. So what I catch with my camera of the NS (or other companies) trains is often a side catch of steam or museum material passing by. Fortunately I do find occasionally some time to make pictures. This time we were in the vicinity of Moordrecht for the SSN Steam Train Days. This day the weather was not that great. Cloudy, but at the end of the day luckily the sun appeared. The DMU of Crew 2454 also passed by and I was able to make some pictures of this set also.
Als Vollzeitvater und Ehemann verbringe ich, abgesehen von den gelegentlichen Hauptstreckenfahrten der SSN oder VSM und den Veranstaltungen, kaum noch Zeit am Streckenrand. Was ich an NS-Geräten (oder anderen Firmen) fotografiere, ist oft Beifang von Dampf- oder Museumsgeräten, die ich gekauft habe. Glücklicherweise kommt es immer noch gelegentlich vor, dass ich etwas Zeit habe, aber das ist leider nur sporadisch der Fall. Dieses Mal standen wir für die SSN Dampfzug Tage im Raum Moordrecht. An diesem Tag war das Wetter schlechter; bewölkt, aber gegen Ende des Tages brach die Sonne durch.

Thanks for the visit have a nice week
At first when I looked at this I thought this Yellow Warbler was gathering spider webs but this tree is covered in Tent Caterpillars. It was gathering beak loads of tent silk to line it's own nest.
Esta semana LCR ha dado la sorpresa por la zona catalana moviendo material de obras, circulaciones curiosas realmente difíciles de cazar. La 333.316 abandona Barcelona camino de Tarragona, Reus y Madrid con una bateadora de FCC, y una perfiladora, otra bateadora y un estabilizador de Convensa recogidas en Riells, además de 4 tolvas de Convensa agregadas en Can Tunis. Lástima que no pudiera hacer la foto en las condiciones que quería.

One of my favourite ever Big Carp covers, a young Terry Hearn with what was then the biggest carp in the UK at the time Mary. From Wraysbury1 120 acre lake. In the days when there was only an handful of carp in there. Though the lake now as huge amounts of carp in, and the lake is much more smaller, and more than ten times easier to catch from now.
For those who have asked, have I ever had anything published before.
I had the old Loaded magazine years ago ask me about the days of the 'Casuals', and how we brought in clothing from countries like Italy. Maybe I will write about that another time.
Maxim magazine wrote a small piece about me once catching big catfish.
Though my own personal hand written stuff, started with some short comedy pieces in local rags, and then onto mainstream newspapers like the Daily Mirror. It was only letter page stuff though, but they printed it. I can write about most subjects.
Though it's fishing magazines I have had most of my articles printed in.
I used to have my own underground OTT fishing newsletter get passed around lakes all over the UK, and some did make it as far as Europe, Canada, America, New Zealand and Australia. Purely from anglers passing them on when going on fishing holidays.
Cos of this (Excuse my bad English). I ended up in fishing magazines. Rob Maylin of Big Carp Magazine is the only one to ever print one of my serious articles in a fishing monthly. Though in them days they were bi-monthly's.
Though Rob was the first one to have the balls to print my real crazy stuff. From Dr Kibble's Approach, Kibble's Column, Bivvy Babe Sideways Sally, Jimmy Old Jokes, Some Carp Casualties, Kibble's Creations, Kibble's Kartoons, to Kibbles Krumpet. The list is endless.
A long time ago now. I wrote a 12 page article in Big Carp magazine, it was more like an hour of stand up than fishing. Many anglers still go on about that to me to this day, when I bump into them on my travels. Some of them are anglers I don't even know.
Kibble's Krumpet come about after a fishing website I had. The website was full of funny anglers, big and small captures. Size of fish didn't really matter. Loads of crazy story's. There was topless and nude models on it as well. At first I used to take the photos myself, but in the end other websites give me free photos of models, in return I had to put them up as a link on my website. I never put up any pornographic stuff though. All nude models had to be over 21. It was popular. I had to close it down in the end. It just got to popular, and the website hosts started to want more money off of me, because they thought I was running it as a business. I just started it as a joke, and that is all it ever was. Nothing was ever sold on it.
There's no point sending my type of material to some editors. If they are boring old farts with no sense of humour. Your just wasting your time. I know Rob Maylin gets me, he has a good sense of humour, and he is a bit of a geezer.
