Quelles que soient les raisons pour lesquelles nous allons disparaître ( apocalypse nucléaire, pandémie, cataclysme climatique, au choix ..... ), voici celui qui va nous survivre.
Ratus ratus ou rat des champs.
Très organisés, opportunistes, adaptables, ils seront encore là longtemps après nous. Dormant sous terre ou dans des endroits très variés, ils seront bien moins exposés que nous lorsqu' arrivera l'inévitable.
Wikipedia: Commonly known as the keeled rat snake, Ptyas carinata is a species of colubrid snake. It is found in Indonesia, Myanmar, Malaysia, Thailand, Philippines, Cambodia, Vietnam and Singapore. This little known species is probably the largest extant species in the diverse colubrid family that comprised just over half of living snake species. Known adult lengths of snakes of this species in Taiwan measured anywhere from 1.21 to 2.75 m (4 ft 0 in to 9 ft 0 in). However, the maximum reportedly size was about 4 m (13 ft 1 in). Males reportedly average slightly larger than females. They are probably opportunistic predators on a variety of prey, such as rodents, though adult lizards are thought to be significant prey in Indonesia.

Petit rat musqué sympathique qui se fait plein d'amis venant voir les gens pour quémander de la nourriture, il en fait rire plus d'un !
So I ask, where is Elvis (red-shouldered hawk)? There is a new Templeton (cotton rat) in the yard.
In this image, Templeton is beneath Robbie's feeding station in the picnic area. As he picked around at little things looking for fallen treats, Robbie (gray squirrel) was zipping across the Eastside fence line towards the feeding station. All the while, Howard and Marion and the other feathered visitors were making their way to the yard for the bird show. You can always hear when the show is about to begin.
Robbie reached the point on the fence where he likes to disembark and scurry to the feeding station. With a leap from the fence, he landed on the park grill then came to a complete and unexpected halt. He backed up a bit, lifted his head, and started looking at Templeton. Cautiously he lowered his head to get a closer look at Templeton and backed up once more. Then Robbie started looking back and forth between me and Templeton as if to say who is he and what is he doing here. All I could do was laugh at the spectacle.
A short while later with little or no notice of Robbie, Templeton scampered out of the area to one of the flowerbeds and began eating weeds. Go, Templeton, eat all of those you want. Robbie continued to the feeding station and began eating his treats.
Meanwhile, the birds' show had begun. Howard and Marion both having decided that Robbie's station is their favorite were moving ever closer to the area. Poor Robbie, his snack time was interrupted again as the cardinals began flying low over his head on a frequent basis and asking him to move along. Robbie did just that. Retracing his path Robbie scurried out of sight to the backyard neighbors; Leaving Howard and Marion to enjoy the treats.
Later that day, Templeton boldly ran across my foot. Apparently I was in the way as we were each going about our business. I was glad to have closed-toed shoes. Normally, I have on flip-flops when I am in the yard but when I do more intense yard work it's always closed-toed shoes.
Although I do appreciate the assistance with weed control in the yard, again I have to ask where is Elvis? Templeton is not excluded from the menu like the bluebirds are 😜.
Have a sensational Sunday and happy snapping.
One of the first images I uploaded to Flickr 15 years ago almost to the day, has been given a minor wash and brush up for this latest outing.
Sulzer class 25 'Rat' unit 25107 is captured rolling in to Crewe station with an unidentified mixed vans working. With the ex-GWR 'Siphon G' just behind the loco, and the pair of BR GUVs behind that, the working is almost certainly a parcels or mail train.
At the time Crewe station was something of a honey-pot for rail enthusiasts - all mainline expresses were locomotive hauled, mail and parcels in transit often cluttered the platforms, the station was busy enough to employ at least one class 08 shunter on duty (and often two), the station layout was still haphazard, interesting, and very photogenic. Of course, this was all before the £14m track rationalisation project in the mid-1980s which saw five platforms taken out of service on the west side of the station, and the approaches realigned for 80mph through-running with faster alignments for stopping trains. It's interesting to note too that the class 40s, while widespread in the North and in Scotland, were long synonymous with Crewe and, at the start of 1978, 184 of the 200 built were still in service.
In this shot the complexity of the track layout pre-rationalisation is evident, including quite a bit of bullhead rail too.
Processed to try retain the filmic feel of the day, the original upload has been deleted.
Update: My Locoshed books from 77/78 suggest 25107 was a Toton-allocated unit at the time, so I'm wondering if this was a parcels train from the East Midlands?

Rat, Rattus rattus

This Rat is one of several that exist eating bread that has been left out for birds at the Whitenights Campus of the University of Reading. They have become very trusting and seem unworried by passers by.
Rat rods were the most fun category at the 25th annual Moab Classic Car Show. More fun...it was very loud!
As always, thanks so much for taking a look.
