My mother, who died a week ago, and my father, who died in 2006, at a carnival ball in Memmingen in 1954. My mother was 22 years old then, my father 27 (their birthdays were later in the year), and I was about ten months old at the time. Certainly my grandmother took care of me that evening.
I spent a lot of time, in Florida, watching the nests of the egrets and heron as their babies grew up. It was educational to see how they fed their young.
When a parent flew back to the nest all the hatchlings immediately went for the parents bill After a few minutes the feeding began.
Parents feed their young by regurgitating food onto the nest floor for the hatchlings to eat. Sometimes the parents' bill is placed directly into the hatchlings' mouth and food is regurgitated. (Parsons and Master, 2000) The younger nestlings are fed before the older hatchlings.

Always nice to see females with eggs! They're such good mothers though that they're infuriating, as they constantly lean towards the lens, to protect their brood!!

New Hampshire Northcoast Railroad train D8-141 (the 141st loaded train of 2021) is hustling south on the former Boston and Maine Conway Branch headed to Rochester where they will work at Tri City for over an hour before taking their train on to Pan Am's Dover Yard. There the train will be left for the Pan Am crew to get on board later in the evening and forward the whole train south as PAR train DOBO to the NHN's parent Boston Sand and Gravel facility in Charlestown just across the river from North Station.
All three green units on the roster are in charge of the train on this day: NHN 3823 (GP38-2 blt. Sept. 1978 as CR 8242), 1801 (GP18 blt. Feb. 1960 as CRIP 1341), and 3825 (GP38-2 blt. Sept. 1978 as CR 8244). They are curling through some brilliant foliage in the swamp land along the Branch River as they approach the Wakefield Road / Route 153 crossing near MP 95.5.

Parent tern feeding its young at the Nickelson Beach in Long Island, New York.
Common Tern is the most widespread tern in North America, spending its winters as far south as Argentina and Chile. They are social birds foraging in groups and nesting on the ground in colonies.
The common tern drinks on the wing, dipping its bill in the water with its wings held up. They can drink saltwater or freshwater - like many seabirds, they have nasal glands that excrete excess salt.

If the parents just kept quiet, these chicks would never be found. Their loud shrill peeping draws attention to the family and very soon after sitting still and observing, the chicks will make themselves known by running around. This family consisted of three chicks and two parents, continuously bellowing out their shrill cries to the babies to keep hidden. Eventually all were reunited under some green vegetation and I moved on after having snapped many photos of this delightful scene. Here are just a few.
A brother and I stopped at “Our Parents Place” to reminisce for a bit before going on a cruise together. It was a beautiful day and by chance we wanted to get a couple photos of our street rods. We live a few hundred apart and wanted to pay our folks the respect of a visit. We had a blast and our folks never said a negative word. Gratitude and Kindness paid off again.
I wanted to play along with the Rogue Players today as they picked a neat theme for the day and I've always wanted to take a photo like this, I'm not sure if this will end up as my 365 or not, I may go out and take a bench monday shot depending on how I feel after my run.
My dad has an incredible music collection, he's got it all in alphabetical order and everything and there must be hundreds of records from so many different genres. I grew up in a pretty cool environment growing up and artists like The Doors, Janis Joplin, The Rolling Stones and Jimi Hendrix were the soundtrack to many road trips and family barbeques. I must say I credit my parents for giving me an appreciation for variety in music!

A wild adult white ibis.
Wikipedia - The .American white ibis (Eudocimus albus) is a species of bird in the ibis family, Threskiornithidae. It is found from North Carolina via the Gulf Coast of the United States south through most of the coastal New World tropics. n flight. Males are larger and have longer bills than females.
The breeding range runs along the Gulf and Atlantic Coast, and the coasts of Mexico and Central America. Outside the breeding period, the range extends further inland in North America and also includes the Caribbean. It is also found along the northwestern South American coastline in Colombia and Venezuela. Populations in central Venezuela overlap and interbreed with the scarlet ibis. The two have been classified by some authorities as a single species.
Their diet consists primarily of small aquatic prey, such as insects and small fishes. Crayfish are its preferred food in most regions, but it can adjust its diet according to the habitat and prey abundance. Its main foraging behavior is probing with its beak at the bottom of shallow water to feel for and capture its prey. It does not see the prey.
During the breeding season, the American white ibis gathers in huge colonies near water. Pairs are predominantly monogamous and both parents care for the young, although males tend to engage in extra-pair copulation with other females to increase their reproductive success. Males have also been found to pirate food from unmated females and juveniles during the breeding season.

a moment of rest in the shade...
There has been babies squawking all day long around the front and back yards, and neighbours yards too. Busy parents, with young ones often in tow, finding worms and grubs for a nice tasty snack. Two open mouths often eagerly await this food but only one at a time can be fed...

These are my parents, Dick and Sue. Mom is sick with CBGD, a rare neurological degenerative disease. My dad takes really good care of her. Yesterday was her first full day in her new wheelchair. Check out www.wemove.org to find out more about CBGD and other rare motion disorders.
I am thankful for my family.
