Got out for a drive yesterday and made a big loop that eventually landed us over on Hwy 223 above Arvin. Had few minutes there before the wind started to howl....

Missed it? Well, there's Giselle the Aerial Dance/Ballet/Butoh coming Feb 13-15! Always more to be seen at the Dragon!
This stone pair is beautifully situated on the west coast of Mayo. I loved the walk down the farm track to this site. Looking across the bay towards Achill Island, you get a wonderful feeling of space, Croagh Patrick can be seen from here and also Inishturk and Clare Island. I could have spent hours here.
Laysan albatross (Phoebastria immutabilis) reestablish a pair bond at the beginning of mating season after spending most of the year at sea separately. Unlike many birds, tube-nosed seabirds have remarkable olfactory acuity that might play a role in recognizing a monogamous mate during mutual grooming.

Gannet pairs may remain together over several seasons. They perform elaborate greeting rituals at the nest, stretching their bills and necks skywards and gently tapping bills together (called fencing). -wiki

Two goldfinch were chasing each other from branch to branch. I waited to see if I would get this goldfinch pair in one frame. Had I set a larger aperture the male would be more in focus. (c) 2013

Lesser Grass Blue Butterfly Mating
The smallest butterflies are the blues (family Lycaenidae). Some are only 6mm in wingspan (ca. 0.5 inch). Florida's pygmy blue (Brephidium exilis) has dwarf (6mm) individuals, although most have closer to 10mm wingspans.

DB Cargo class 90 no. 90036, 'Driver Jack Mills', leads classmate no. 90028, 'Sir William McAlpine', north through Grendon working 0Z23 Daventry Railfreight Terminal- Crewe Electric depot light locomotive on 22nd May 2020.
The two locomotives have worked the 4M25/ 4S47 Mossend/ Daventry WH Malcolm circuit since Wednesday. A new pair of 90s worked south from Crewe electric earlier in the day.
The Class 90 locomotives were introduced between 1987 and 1990 for use on both freight trains and passenger trains. 50 locomotives were produced by BREL at Crewe Works for use on the West Coast Mainline. The locomotives have a top speed of 110mph and are fitted with thyristor controls instead of the traditional tap-changers which their predecessors used. 26 locomotives were soon dedicated to Freight Traffic and were renumbered as Class 90/1 with their top speed limited to 75mph and ETH isolated. 90001- 90015 were operated by Intercity on express trains from Euston, 90016-90020 were operated by Rail Express Systems on travelling post office trains and 90021-90050 were ran by Railfreight Distribution on Freight trains with 90021-90024 remaining as Class 90/0 locos for possible rescue use or work on passenger trains. Upon privatisation of British Rail 90001- 90015 went to Virgin Trains for use on WCML express workings, 90016- 90040 went to EWS and 90041- 90050 went to Freightliner. The first change to this came in 2004 as Virgin Trains began to retire locomotive hauled series, 90001- 90015 were progressively transferred to Anglia for use on express trains out of London Liverpool Street replacing the ageing Class 86/2s that were in use on services at that time. Initially, the Class 90 locomotives were unreliable and a few 86s remained in use however, by 2006 reliability had significantly improved and the 15 90s had taken over the service.
The next change came when 90050 caught fire in late 2004, it was placed in storage and Freightliner hired in 90016 to replace it. During this time 90016's lease has became permanent and the loco has been painted in Freightliner's Green livery.
Several of the DB locos are stored out of use at the electric depot in Crewe with at least one example having a tree growing out of it. 90016, 90041, 90046 are painted in Freightliner Green, 90047, 90048 and 90050 are painted in Freightliner Grey. 90042, 90043, 90045 and 90049 are painted in Freightliner Powerhaul, 90044 is in the Freightliner G&W orange and black livery.
In January 2015, 90042 returned to service. In April 2015, DBS started to run pairs of class 90 locomotives on trains previously operated by class 92s.
In late 2019, the arrival of the FLIRT units on the Great Eastern Mainline resulted in the Greater Anglia Class 90s becoming redundant. 90001 and 90002 were transferred to Locomotive Services Limited in Crewe. 90003-90015 have been transferred to Freightliner.
Just a few moments before this picture was taken, this pair seemed to have a rather aggressive encounter with the male appearing to attempt to drown the female (mating?). All's forgiven with the gentle touch of beaks.
