For the past few days we've seen both a male and female Rose Breasted Grosbeak in our yard. They have been rather shy, not wanting to attract to much attention - but they have failed in that department.
Not sure if they are scouts showing up ahead of "the group" or stragglers taking their time, but we're thrilled they are here! And we're trying to get any and all shots we can, while we can! Grabbed this shot of the female when she came out into the open to check out some of the feeders below where she's perched.
Fingers crossed they'll still be here when to hold our Harvest Fest for our Backyard visitors later this weekend!

"Life is so beautiful that death has fallen in love with it, a jealous, possessive love that grabs at what it can. But life leaps over oblivion lightly, losing only a thing or two of no importance, and gloom is but the passing shadow of a cloud..."
— Yann Martel (Life of Pi)

Back to the glorious gold and blue mirror that is Otaki Beach...
Taken near Kinloch Hourn in the pouring rain. I only managed 2 photos, this was the first, the second was useless as the front of my lens was covered in droplets. I quite like this one, happy days

I'm sorry. She was deformed by a wide angle lens. ( ^^;
She is more slender.

From last weeks shots, after getting close to the lump laying on the ground ( me and my camera ) this coyote started slowly wandering off.
ISS and Milky Way over Ngaruroro River, Hawke's Bay, New Zealand
There has been a lot of talk today about the 15th anniversary of the occupation of the International Space Station, so here is a shot I took last night of the ISS rising through the core of the Milky Way at 9:30pm.
Coincidentally the ISS has been especially visible from New Zealand over the last week or so, and this pass overhead was the first of 2 last night, and the 10th visible pass in the last 4 days.
We are fast losing sight of the core of the Milky Way in our night sky with the approach of summer, but we will see it again in late January in the morning sky.
I haven't shot astro from this location before, but given that it is half way between the 2 main urban centres in Hawke's Bay, I was surprised at how clear the Milky Way was. Of course light pollution is a problem but in this case it gave me silhouettes of the river banks and some light on the water.
This image is made from 18 photos, taken 1 after another covering a period of about 4 1/2 minutes. These 18 images were then blended in Photoshop, with 1 photo forming the background of the stars, river and land, and the trail of the ISS blended into it from the other images.

After crossing the Willamette River and treading through Union Station, PNWR 664 notches up as it passes through Portland, OR. A few miles from here, 664 will set off its train at Willbridge and its power will run light to the BNSF yard at Vancouver, WA.
A shot I have not done before of trains passing at Weybourne, with a very short train in platform 1 in the form of rail bus E79960 meeting Standard Tank 80080 as it arrives from Holt. Both machines that had short service careers with BR, resurrected and providing delight in the 21st century. The rail bus is making a short visit back from the Ribble Steam Railway in Preston where it is on loan. Owned by the NNR but too small to handle the current passenger numbers the line sees during the summer season, as has been demonstrated while it has been back. Though it will be running mid-week until 27th June, next Friday, before going back north.
DB Cargo/EWS's #66060 is about to pass under the Brunel designed Clifton Suspension Bridge as she enters the Avon Gorge leading the Arpley Sidings, in Warrington; to the automotive terminal at Royal Portbury Docks on the morning of Tuesday the 24th of May 2016.
An awesome lightning storm flew by Utah Valley this evening. I made it up to Squaw Peak in Provo to catch just the last of it before it made its way over to the Heber Valley and beyond.
I think we are all familiar with the situation of waiting and waiting at a train station, or some other public transport facility. Often some of the most boring places to be. People watching a favourite activity I'm sure for many to kill time. Actually, thinking about it, - it is not a bad thing, for a moment, to put the world 'on hold', just be in the moment, and simply observe people around you. Interesting world we live in.
