Description: The Buff-banded Rail is a medium-sized stout rail with short legs. It has a distinctive grey eyebrow and an orange-brown band on its streaked breast. The lores, cheek and hindneck are rich chestnut. The chin and throat are grey, the upperparts streaked brown and the underparts barred black and white. The eye is red. Young birds are much paler to white underneath, with indistinct bars and only a faint orange-brown tint on the breast. Downy chicks are fluffy black. This rail walks slowly, with tail raised and flicking constantly.

Similar species: The orange-brown breast band distinguishes the Buff-banded Rail from the similar but smaller Lewin's Rail,Dryolimnas pectoralis, which has a rich chestnut crown and nape and a proportionally longer pink bill.

Distribution: The Buff-banded Rail is widespread in mainland Australia, particularly along the eastern coast and islands, and on Norfolk and Lord Howe Islands. It is also found in south-east Asia, New Guinea and New Zealand.

Habitat: The Buff-banded Rail is seen singly or in pairs in dense reeds and vegetation bordering many types of wetlands or crops. It makes widespread use of artificial wetlands like sewage ponds and drainage channels.

Seasonal movements: The Buff-banded Rail is resident and possibly locally nomadic, though little is known of these movements.

Feeding: The Buff-banded Rail feeds on crustaceans, molluscs, insects, seeds, fruit, frogs, carrion and refuse. It mostly feeds early in the morning and the evening.

Breeding: Breeding is poorly known, but the Buff-breasted Rail nests in long grass, tussocks, rushes or crops. It makes an unlined cup-shaped nest of grasses or reeds. Both parents incubate and the young will leave the nest within 24 hours. Both parents remain with the young, which usually feed themselves, though the female may feed them as well. Two broods may be raised in some seasons.

Calls: Loud creaky squeak when breeding but usually silent.

Minimum Size: 28cm

Maximum Size: 33cm

Average size: 31cm

Average weight: 130g

Breeding season: September to February

Clutch Size: 5 to 8 eggs

Incubation: 19 days

Nestling Period: 1 days

Without the pain, let’s get down again

Conscience left, disappeared without a trace

Bones and metal twist, they shudder from the sound it makes

If I die please shoot my ashes into outer space

Replace this heart with a metal pump please

Spark wires and fire me up with a jump-lead

Replace this brain with a motherboard

Delete the memories so I don’t suffer more

I don’t want to see the pain

I don’t want to breathe again

Speaking in code, check the bleeps and the tones

Lies get exposed so speak what you know

You reap what you sow then you eat what you grow

A brand new heart made in steel and it's cold

With this armour I built that is keeping me whole

I’m a cyborg like your Sci-fi story said

I don’t really want to feel now

This is for the best

Mechanical Leaf Remover by Steven Hromnak

Functions on the same principle as a mechanical hair remover device. Interesting idea but gravity won the contract on cost.

Made exclusively for Sliders Sunday, well maybe the straight version was for Fence Friday, but this one is juiced up a bit and I liked the straight braid shot so it got posted on Friday: HSS!

Wavy, dry brush filter that I love and color bumped up, that's it, the bokeh is straight and both shots are the same fence but different conditions.

Gray Catbird...To Jump Or Not To Jump! by Suzanham

37 77

Catbirds give the impression of being entirely slate gray. With a closer look you’ll see a small black cap, blackish tail, and a rufous-brown patch under the tail

Gray Catbirds are relatives of mockingbirds and thrashers, and they share that group’s vocal abilities, copying the sounds of other species and stringing them together to make their own song. including the catlike mewing responsible for its name.....a succession of musical and mechanical notes and phrases.

Mechanical Orguinette by Photo Oleo

The Horseless Carriage Museum is a small, privately run museum operated by the Bennett family just outside of Fenlon Falls. The Mechanical Orguinette was one of Mr. Bennett's mechanical curiosities. After restoring the orguinette, he recreated the music with paper and a hole punch (and it works!) It is a small museum but it is well curated and fascinating to visit.

To visit see: www.horselesscarriage.ca/index.html

Came across this swamp land in a clearing and was struck by the bleach white cadavers of trees. A stark reminder of how fragile nature truly is.
