Something knitted and odd around a fence pole

This is the Odd Bedfellows cocktail, created by Sother Teague and published in his own book "I'm Just Here For The Drinks" in 2018. The name appears to refer to the unlikely relationship between the ingredients present in this drink, particularly the industry beloved, Fernet Branca. As a base, the drink is a piña colada. The twist is when we're confronted with the chocolately notes from the crème de cacao and the bitter mentholated punch from the Fernet Branca. These two work together to "evoke a York Peppermint Patty". It's weird to imagine this laying side-by-side with a piña colada, but I can tell you it sort of magic how well it works. It has those tropical vibes, but with a rich chocolate backbone.

0.75 oz aged rum (Teague recommends El Dorado 8 year)

0.25 oz Smith & Cross Navy Strength Jamaican rum

0.5 oz crème de cacao (I recommend Tempus Fugit, Giffard or Marie Brizard)

1 oz Fernet Branca

1.5 oz pineapple juice (fresh is best)

1.0 coconut cream (Coco López is your best bet)

Combine all of the ingredient into a shaker tin. Add ice and shake vigorously. Strain into a chilled glass (whatever suits your mood). Top off with crushed or pebble ice. Garnish with a sprig of mint.

This warbler was seen at Baker sewage ponds on 10/8/2017. Has the facial pattern of a Townsend's, but shows only a minimal faint wash of yellow on the breast/flanks. Just an odd Townsend's versus hybrid?

Opinions welcome!

This guy is new around here! I love coming across animals with unusual markings, because it makes it easy to follow them as individuals; their activity, their comings and goings, their interesting habits. I'll definitely recognize this goose every time I see him! He was with a group of about a dozen Canadian Geese, but he's the only one I've ever seen that looks like this. I hope he becomes a regular at our little pond.

I wonder if he knows he's wearing odd socks

a collection of projects..

4 June - My Mom and I had lunch at Odd Fellows Cafe. I took this picture and a gentleman in front of us in line asked me why.. He said he didn't "get it" - I explained.. the interestingness, color beauty of it, the reflections on the glass.... He thought about it for a second and looked at it again and smiled..

Thank you borealnz for the texture

The flash makes an odd curved reflection off the head of a White-lipped viper, Trimeresurus albolabris, as it tastes the air...

At RHS Wisley there is a terrific display of tulips - but there is always one....

Active Assignemnt Monthly for January 2010: Odd Man Out

This is my FIRST monthly submission, so I apologize if I do anything wrong.

My son is eating a lot of organic foods so we have these cool brown eggs in the house and I thought it would fit the assignment perfectly.

WIT: I used incoming daylight and tried different apertures to get the DOF I wanted. I liked this one best. I upped contrast an added a vignette in Lightroom 2

odd.

In the bushes, evading securtiy, I found this gun, or toy. It has a mechanism and a barrel and a slot for the magazine, but I´ve never seen anything like it. It´s only 48 cm long. Looks like the real thing, but it´s just a bit short and has these weird extensions to put it down and the strange tube over the barrel (a sight of some kind?)

Suggestions?

Thanks to my lovely Mum buying me some new clothes over the weekend I am sorting out my wardrobe today and removing anything which doesn't fit properly.

I am completely rubbish with socks and have come across lots of odd ones. My plan is to pair up as many as I can and then any odd socks left over will be thrown out!

I got the idea for this shot from Loula www.flickr.com/photos/lauramott/2200941257/

Well for non-railfans and non-US railfans it may be difficult to find the odd one out, but the third locomotive in the above consist is a northern Sunfolk (NS) loco. It is pretty uncommon in this part of the country and is sure quite a ways away from home.

Taken on the upper bridge at the Cienega creek, it was quite an adventure to get up there on the upper line. This bridge and line can be seen in this picture from the lower level.

We climbed up to the upper level tracks as shown on the picture below to take this picture.

Malibu is a 1 yr old female Domestic Longhair. She is an odd eyed brown ticked tabby and white. She was freed from the engine of a Chevrolet Malibu in July '09. She's the love of my life. Just a really awesome cat.

Buffalo Nut, Oil Nut - Pyrularia pubera (female plant)

An odd, dioecious, hemiparasitic shrub. This appears to be a female plant--according to Radford:

"Staminate flowers have a nonfunctional pistil, and the pistillate, nonfunctional stames. Pistallate flowers on short spikes 1-3 cm long, the staminate spikes to 7 cm long."

Not sure if these are male or female flowers.

Stamens do not look like they have any pollen, so maybe these are female flowers. Totally not sure!

Is Ronda Rousey going to debut in Minneapolis?

Despite the large number of newer electric powered Yutongs in the fleet, Newport Transport continues to operate a large number of older diesel powered Dennis Tridents and Alexander Dennis E40Ds. These are retained primarily for school peak hour services.

The Tridents that carry Plaxton President and Alexander ALX400 bodywork have all been converted from dual to single-door configuration. However, the odd bods are a pair with Alexander Enviro400 bodywork - 408 and 409 - that were new to Metroline and were built without off-side lower deck emergency exits, necessitating the retention of their centre doors. They were acquired in 2021 after a spell with a Surrey based operator.

You have to be in the right place at the right time so see them on the road, and I was fortunate to catch up with 408 in September 2025 at the Old Green Roundabout as she was returning to the depot after an afternoon school run.
