Count Down to the New Year - Day 5

 

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

No laughing matter for these two, working their way through some very real power struggles - but I couldn't help see the humour in it, watching their shenanigans as they tried to outwit each other for top spot on the best branch.

For "Looking close... on Friday!" ; theme : "odd one out".

I could immediately tell that they didn't want me hanging around... I can't understand how they knew I was odd though, usually it takes about a minute.

Oh well...

This is to the left of the house in the next shot. The two look nothing alike, which seems a bit odd. It's also a unique shape and here in Wisconsin we don't use garage doors of this type because you can't get them open when we get two feet of snow. Then there's the paint job.

This odd little structure is located in the Landmark Sinkhole. Larger sinkholes like this one have been known to swallow up structures like houses, barns, and buildings.

Oddly enough there were 2 pieces of cheese left but only one mini pretzel!

Toplita-Borsec line, 8/03/1995. Expert opinion identifies the inspection vehicle (left) as a Russian ZIS-110, a luxury limousine, based on a Packard original.

 

The L45 to the right has cleared the line for a special. The inspection car has followed, picking up bodies, etc. (I was leaning out of the last carriage of the special).

An odd cloud appeared at sunset over Lachine, Quebec.

Strange birds, for sale in the souvenir shop at Sheffield Park.

Credit must go to the patience of Mr A; I collected him from the airport, then forced him to take his trousers off and participate in mutual laser therapy when all he really wanted to do was go to bed.

 

For those of a nervous disposition, those are not sausages, nor even euphemistic sausages but Mr A's hands.

The dark part of this cloud and the hook appeared to be on the same level. The hook did not appear to extend downward. The winds were blowing from the southwest and this cloud was moving south east (left to right in the image). The view here is almost due north (north by northeast).

If you'd like to see the others from my 365, they're here: flic.kr/s/aHskPxovML

 

Thanks for looking!

 

Wood ducks look strange when they change from their pretty breeding colors into their drab summer (eclipse) colors. But this duck is stranger still. It has both male & female characteristics. Not a juvenile, they have dull olive color bills. Male traits here are that colorful bill that remains even in summer and the colorful head crest feathers. Female traits are the brown eye instead of red, the shape of the white outlining the eye and the lack of a white chin strap going up the neck. Males keep the red eyes and white chin strap even in the summer.

Up close, bitterns are just as strange and mysterious as when they are barely visible through distant reeds.

 

This one was just off the auto-tour road at Ridgefield NWR and I had a good, long look at it -- and I'm still not sure if it's a real thing or not.

Happy Wing Wednesday! I found this odd leaf-footed bug on a milkwort, Polygala curtissii, in Chatham County, NC (USA) on 28 September 2020. It then dropped down onto lichen-covered ground, where it was very well camouflaged. It is a...

First time I got a HST with one Red powercar at one end and one Blue one at the other. 43320 is the odd one out as it leads the 1B69 1745 Nottingham - London St Pancras International. Seen passing Thurmaston 17/7/20. (Taken using a pole)

We went for a ride on the lake in the bombardier. So far this year we don't have much snow, but there is a good two feet of ice.

Lots of folks were out ice fishing and even driving their cars on the ice. There are no snowbanks so you can drive right onto the lake.
