Brown Hare - Lepus europaeus
Norfolk
The brown hare is known for its long, black-tipped ears and fast running - it can reach speeds of 45mph when evading predators. It prefers a mosaic of farmland and woodland habitats and can often be spotted in fields.
Thought to have been introduced into the UK in Roman Times (or even earlier), the brown hare is now considered naturalised. It is most common in grassland habitats and at woodland edges, favouring a mosaic of arable fields, grasses and hedgerows. It grazes on vegetation and the bark of young trees and bushes. Brown hares do not dig burrows, but shelter in 'forms', which are shallow depressions in the ground or grass; when disturbed, they can be seen bounding across the fields, using their powerful hind legs to propel them forwards, often in a zigzag pattern. Brown hares are at their most visible in early spring when the breeding season encourages fighting or 'boxing'. Females can produce three to four litters of two to four young (known as leverets) a year.
Widespread, but absent from northern Scotland and the Scottish islands, except Islay, I'm reliably informed.
Reliable sources mentioned today, that Gustaf took an evening off........
He was seen standing at Tranquil Bay watching the view for quite a while, before he started to fish.
Moment at Autumn Trace, Tranquil Bay :
This lovely rooster, the ultimate morning person, was a reliable alarm clock while we were visiting. He loved to greet the new day at Zero Dark Thirty each morning.
Drab grayish-brown flycatcher found in forested areas and edges. Nondescript overall with two pale wingbars; bill usually shows extensive orange on lower mandible. Note very long wings and larger size than Empidonax flycatchers. Typically seen on a high perch, occasionally sallying out to snatch an insect. Essentially identical to Western Wood-Pewee; averages paler overall with stronger upper wingbar, but reliably distinguished only by voice. Listen for clear whistled tones, especially the distinctive “PEE-a-weeEEE!” song. (eBird)
Constance Bay, Ottawa, Ontario, Canada. August 2010.
This is a different image to 'Majestic'...
Just tried a tighter crop and a little more contrast...hope you like it.
I keep this in the silverware drawer to use almost daily on jars or lids or other such frustrating things. I think this makes me much more gentle than tossing something across the room, don't you?
Back after I ask my significant other what the proper name of this is, if you're interested.
Ah, a pair of duck-billed pliers with which to grip, bend, and twist small things. Small enough for my smallish hand.
… Reliable sources report the Twins were seen watering their horse close to where these 3 columns still stand, circa 496 BCE :-)
When I used to work afternoons, I would regularly check before I left what L505, a Sarnia-Battle Creek train, had for power. The train was a magnet for what crews would consider garbage, this often meant old standard cabs and barns would end up on the train. After working Flint and Durand, L505 is back on the move heading for Battle Creek as they pass through Morrice past the former Meal-N-More elevator that has long been gone, now only a memory like most of the barns.
According to a reliable source, the previous owners of this home rented out the property as an airbnb. It was completely renovated from top to bottom and sold ready for new owners that would appreciate its beauty....I have featured the outdoor patio area because it serves as some very usable living space. As shown, it makes for a great garden area....and it looks like someone has already started planting some roots...

Solid. Reliable. Honest. Open to the world. Honouring facts. Tolerant. Respecting difference. Accepting refugees and some oddballs too. Allowing me to find my home here.

A shot from 2015.
According to the ever-reliable Wikipedia:
"London Arch (formerly London Bridge) is an offshore natural arch formation in the Port Campbell National Park, Australia. The arch is a significant tourist attraction along the Great Ocean Road near Port Campbell in Victoria. This stack was formed by a gradual process of erosion, and until 1990 formed a complete double-span natural bridge.
The span closer to the shoreline collapsed unexpectedly on 15 January 1990, leaving two tourists stranded on the outer span before being rescued by helicopter. No one was injured in the event. Prior to the collapse, the arch was known as London Bridge because of its similarity to its namesake."

Chevron Gas Station in Ghost Town of Nelson, Nevada
Located in southern end of Nevada, in El Dorado Canyon in Clark County, Nevada.
The area known as Nelson was originally called Eldorado in 1775, by the original discoveries of gold in the area that is now Eldorado Canyon. The town was the site of one of the first major gold strikes in Nevada and one of the biggest mining booms in state history. Gold and silver were discovered here around 1859. The rush to the canyon began in 1861.
The community called Nelson was named for Charles Nelson, a camp leader.
Chairs and Benches
This is yet another new series of photographs this time about Chairs and Benches with a few other seating items thrown in.
They can be Regal, Practical, Ultra Design items, Art Installations, used for Potty Training. They can even be vehicles of Execution. They hold immense power and none at all. From the densest populated cities, to the most remote parts of the world. Usually sturdy; reliable; honest; comfortable; often filled with people. People talking, sleeping, with their phones, eating, climbing to reach other items, feeding birds, making love and every scenario one can think of.
The imagination can run riot over the most important conversations that have taken place on them, what they could tell you if they could, what they would tell you if they wanted too. As usual I hope you enjoy what I have posted and this is the first of many……….
This is my favorite formation in the slickrock area near Page, AZ. I've posted a couple of shots of it before.
The erosion patterns are so elaborate and complex. And the color is lovely.
Keeping my fingers crossed that we have finally turned the corner, as the "ever reliable" weather forecast shows warming temps (slightly) and no more snow until the weekend.
Great. I just jinxed us.
When in doubt, pan it out. And where else but Harris Tower at CP Harrisburg? An old staple of mine for sure, and a quick go to when duty calls.
In this edition, we've got (what else?) the Steelton Local with a slightly different leader - an Operation Livesaver GP59E - rolling through downtown and headed back home to Enola.
Many thanks for your visits, faves and comments. Cheers.

Wivenhoe Dam is South East Queensland’s largest water storage and is the main supply of water for Brisbane and the greater Ipswich area.
Wivenhoe Dam was built on the Brisbane River, about 80 kilometres from Brisbane. It was designed by the Water Resources Commission and built in 1984.
The dam was built for the dual purpose of providing a safe and reliable water supply for the region and flood mitigation.
It is a gated dam which allows us to make controlled water releases during times of heavy rain. Wivenhoe Dam has a total storage capacity of 3.132 million megalitres. Currently 38.3% capacity.

Corymbia ficifolia, commonly known as the red flowering gum, is a species of small tree that is endemic to the south-west of Western Australia. It has rough, fibrous bark on the trunk and branches, egg-shaped to broadly lance-shape adult leaves, flower buds in groups of seven, bright red, pink or orange flowers and urn-shaped fruit. It has a restricted distribution in the wild but is one of the most commonly planted ornamental eucalypts. Corymbia ficifolia grows in sandy soil in low forest on slopes and is restricted to a sub-coastal distribution south-east of Perth, east of Mount Frankland, Walpole and the Stirling Range. Red-flowering gum is one of the most widely cultivated of all eucalypts, both in Australia and overseas. It is best suited to temperate districts with low summer rainfall and is rarely reliable on the east coast of Australia. 47252
I thought that the guy was sleeping there, as he did not move in several minutes. I have it from reliable source, that he was actually scratching a lottery ticket. Dundas Street East is an sketchy neighbourhood, but full of interesting photo opportunities.

On this particular day, if there was one thing I could count on, it was the sun to light up the sky for a lovely sunset. It did not disappoint. Wish you were there too...

This little grape hyacinth has been blooming in my backyard for YEARS, maybe 20 or so? And it belongs, I read on Google, to the asparagus family, imagine. It’s pretty enough to have its own class.

The current church stands on the place where probably for centuries an older shrine had stood. You shouldn't trust legends fully, but often is true that where there's no fire, there's also no smoke. And the old legend attributes building of this church ancestor as well of the nearby Planina castle - to giants. Supposedly two brothers were building the two buildings, having only one big hammer. So, they were simply throwing it to each other, from one hill to another. Our ancestors often named indigenous people "ajdi" (plural). Those people remained from the ancient Roman empire, they had knowledge and were Christians. It's quite possible that some kind of a shrine stood on the hill already in the early middle ages. The more reliable documents say that the current church was erected in the 15th century and rebuilt into the present shape in the middle of the 18th century, partly also in the century after.
