One of the great pleasures of springtime for me is that as the weeks pass by, the season for different species of mining bees starts. After the absence of solitary bees during the winter, it such a pleasure to see them all emerging.
This is my first Ashy Mining Bee (Andrena cineraria) of 2014. This is a male. Notice the slim build, lack of pollen hairs on the hind legs and long white hairs on the face. This species often exhibits a bluish iridescence. This is apparent on the abdomen of this individual.
Many solitary bee species are perfectly happy being handled. When it's a bit chilly, it seems that they enjoy getting some additional warmth. This one took the opportunity for a bit of grooming. Male bees have no sting. Most female solitary bees have weak stings, but rarely use them.
With the Mining Industry Booming at the moment, Pacific National, with its large fleet of locomotives and rollingstock still cannot cope with the pressure. They have done numerous things to keep up with the Industry. Buying new rollingstock is one.
This seen here is another good example. The last two Locomotives of this Lash up are on loan to PacNat from Chicago Freight Car Leasing Australia (CFCLA) with the PacNat 82 Class leading since they suite the crews trainings and needs.
Also, these Coal wagon once used to be Wheat Wagons. Ironically, the Wheat industry of PacNat is coming to a close (due to the draught) and lately they have just been transferring the locomotives and rollingstock from Rural and Bulk straight into Southern Coal!
So, in the next coming years (besides PacNat carbon footprint) we should see some interesting combos that occur in Coal train movements.

This was a very fun trip and I hope to do it again next year. As a member of the Peninsula Wilderness club for almost a year now, I still had not gone on any outings with them. This all changed on this Sunday as 3 other members and myself did the "Koski" Loop. This loop is un-officially named after one of the members that first suggested this hike to the group. The hike starts at the Tubal Cain trailhead then veers off onto the Tull Canyon trail going to its end and eventually going off trail at its end climbing up to the col or saddle between Hawk Peak and Mount Worthington. Once on the ridge or col, travel northeast on the ridge until you reach the top of Hawk Peak. After summiting Hawk Peak. Make your way down towards Silver Lake which is visible from the ridge onto a faint boot path which is also visible from the ridge and through a large scree field until you reach the lake. Once you are at the lake, head on to the Silver Lake trail and follow it up the ridge between Welch Peak and Mount Townsend. For a quick summit bear right or south for an easy scramble to the top of Welch Peak. After Welch, head back down the ridge to regain the Silver Lake Trail and continue until you reach the Mount Townsend Trail. Take a left or west, going uphill towards Mount Townsend following trail until you get to summit. From summit going north, trail becomes the Little Quilcen Trail Continue downhill to a junction veering left and staying on ridge. This trail is also known as the Dirty Face Ridge Trail. Follow steep downhill trail until you reach the trailhead at road. A short walk downhill returns you to the start of the the hike.
Total Miles for trip, 16 or 17 depending on who you ask. Elevation - Just over a mile at around 5400 feet.

Full tubs of coal arrive at the pit head from the Lady Victoria coal mine.
From here they are weighed, washed, graded, and sent to the underhill.
