Back to work after a long weekend I took the evening hours for a ride with the scooter of my son to take some shots. My tour went into the countryside of the Melle-Area in Lower Saxony. Enjoying the warm evening I read that this May is the warmest ever in recorded meteorological history. At least in Northwest Germany. Day temperatures in the mid-twenties and 10+ hours of sunshine are a pleasure for all of us. To be continued...
Hoyel, Lower Saxony, Germany
The world record locomotive Siemens ES64U4 (EuroSprinter U4) of ÖBB pushes a RailJet train into Munich Central Station.
This particular locomotive holds the world speed record for electric locomotives, at 357 km/h. The record was set on the high-speed track from Nürnberg to Ingolstadt on Sept. 2nd, 2006, while the loco was still owned by Siemens and carried the number 1216 050.
In May 2008 the ÖBB received the loco, since June 23rd 2008 she runs as 1216 025 for ÖBB.

RIP, Don White, 11/26/21.
My uncle Don passed away this morning. He was the original record collector in our family, starting back in the 78 rpm era. He had the largest collection of music of anyone that I have personally known. This was just a small portion of his collection that he was able to take with him when he had to move into a retirement home. Keep that vinyl spinning...
Without the knife ,this could be just a close up of a rose ,so I drew a cutting knife to show how big the rose is.
We put an electric heater and a water bowl on our patio. I keep warm water in the bowl and the birds are sure enjoying it. Not a very good picture through the class and a screen.
Our area is not prepared for the weather we are having.
I hope everyone has a wonderful Valentines.
“Record Store UK” was a nationwide event that was scheduled for the 18th April but obviously didn’t go ahead.
There is great interest nowadays in vinyl records, cassette tapes and other means of recording music that had been thought of as being largely defunct and this has spawned a wealth of smaller, independent retailers dealing in them.
Vinyl Attraction in Newark had not been opened long and suddenly had to close again due to the lockdown. The window is always very interesting, with many discs and memorabilia featuring many groups and names from my youth, even some records that I actually owned.
The event is put back to June and, as yet, no news as to if it will actually happen.
Happy Window Wednesday!

So... My plan was to do badgers on the Mendips tonight, but they didn't show for what ever reason. Then I remembered the Nightjars were only a fifteen-minute drive away, so off I poodled.
I'd heard one out on the ridge the last time I was there, so I thought I better head in that direction. As I neared the top one flew right past me, I knew then I was in the right place. I stood and waited, but by then the cloud was coming over, and it was getting really dark really quickly, so I thought I'd bang it on the head, pick a better night and try again...
As I walked back to the fence line I could see a tiny blob about the size of a blackbird sat on a post, I couldn't quite make out what it was, so I put the pop-up flash on and hit the shutter button. 1/15 of a second was not ideal... had I thought about it, I could have changed the settings, walked up to the little fella (might even be a female as no obvious white on wing or tail outers) and got a better shot, but I was only thinking bird in flight captures... Anyway, I've now hatched a better plan... :@)
It was 48 years ago that The Beatles launched Apple Records !
Macro Mondays and this week's theme "Beatles/Beetles".
Well chuffed to see this 'unringed' bird fishing along the Cripps River as I was driving home this evening, especially after telling people for days, we'll have an osprey here by the end of the week and then not seeing one... Good job I wasn't looking the other way as I crossed the bridge, or I would have missed it.
En record a les barquetes que feian companyia els remers en els seus entrenaments diaris.
Tan debó ben aviat poguem gaudir de nou de la seva presència !
Last Monday we had a break in the weather so I had a walk at Cors Caron. On one of the baord walks that heads out into the bog I saw this shortie perched up in a tree that was right next to the path. I had no option but to keep walking nearer and nearer and I was lucky to get relatively close. It didn't turn it's head until the last minute and then it was off however it must have been aware of me as it's 'ears' are up. Hopefully it's the first of a few more for me this year.
Don't laugh... Taken at gone 10:30pm... My first Nightjar ever YAY!! ... Tick. :@)
Think I might have to work on the quality a tad.
Record crowds lined the streets of Manchester to celebrate Chinese New Year and watch the city's famous Dragon Parade in what has been described as the busiest year yet. A huge 175ft long dragon, dancing lions and traditional Geisha artists were among the hundreds of participants in the parade through the city centre.
They were watched by thousands of people who crammed along Oxford Street, Portland Street and through China Town which were all closed to traffic for the celebration on Sunday. Naturally it was the dragon dancers - formed of two parts - that drew the biggest gasps from the hundreds of youngsters lining the streets with their families.
The dragons swept over and around the crowds chasing the "Pearl of Wisdom" - a large globe on a pole which is symbolic of the dragon chasing wisdom and knowledge. Manchester's civic dignitaries earlier bestowed the dragon with red ribbons to usher in good fortune.
2024 is the Lunar Year of the Dragon - which is a symbol of good luck, health and strength in Chinese culture. The reason why dragon dances are performed at the start of the Lunar New Year is because they are believed to chase away evil spirits and welcome in prosperous times.
City centre spokesman Pat Karney hailed it a "record year" for Chinese New Year celebrations saying: "The best ever Chinese New Year Celebrations. Record crowds have been treated to a feast of dance and musical performances and the Dragon had kids in absolute awe."

Records and notes of a new normality.
