Red Legged Partridge - Alectoris Rufa aka French Partridge

 

The red-legged partridge (Alectoris rufa) is a gamebird in the pheasant family.

 

It is sometimes known as French partridge, to distinguish it from the English or grey partridge.

 

This partridge breeds naturally in southwestern Europe (France, Iberia and northwest Italy). It has become naturalised in flat areas of England and Wales, where it was introduced as a game species, and has been seen breeding as far north as Cumbria and eastern Yorkshire and the western Isle of Man. It is replaced in southeastern Europe by the very similar rock partridge (Alectoris graeca). It is a non-migratory terrestrial species, which forms flocks outside the breeding season.

 

This species breeds on dry lowlands, such as farmland and open stony areas, laying its eggs in a ground nest.

 

The natural range of the red-legged partridge is France, Spain and Portugal. However, it was introduced from France to Great Britain in the 18th century, and has since become an important gamebird there. As it is a mediterranean species, it thrives in hot, dry areas with sandy soil. The ability to breed two clutches simultaneously has led to it being extensively reared in captivity, and released for shooting. The breeding of chukars (Alectoris chukar) and red-legged/chukar hybrids is prohibited, due to its impact on wild populations of red-legs. The red-legged partridge is believed to be in decline across its range.

"I, I know where to lay

I know what to say

It's all the same

And I, I know how to play

I know this game

It's all the same

Now if I keep my eyes closed he looks just like you

But he'll never stay, they never do

Now if I keep my eyes closed he feels just like you

But you've been replaced

I'm face to face with someone new"

The Prince Edward Point Lighthouse, built in 1881, is a squaretapered wooden lighthouse with an attached dwelling. The lighthouse is located on the eastern tip of Prince Edward Point, Ontario. Besides the combined 7.8-metre (26 foot) lighthouse and keeper’s residence, the lightstation also includes a detached shed. The lighthouse was automated in 1941 and operated until 1959 when it was replaced by a steel skeleton tower.

 

The lighthouse is associated with various shipwrecks that occurred in this area, colloquially called the “Graveyard of Lake Ontario”.

The Prince Edward Point Lighthouse supported the shipping industry, marking a safe avenue for commercial ships travelling through the waters of Lake Ontario for nearly 80 years. The lighthouse marks the only protected harbour for a distance of approximately 60 nautical miles.

 

Prince Edward Point Lighthouse was recognized as a Heritage Lighthouse in 2015. (Parks Canada)

-----------------

The end of the trail at the Prince Edward Point Bird Observatory, the lighthouse is a good spot to look for sea ducks during migration, as well as gulls and cormorants. Over 300 species of birds have been recorded on the trails and lake.

Do you ever feel like a plastic bag

Drifting through the wind, wanting to start again?

Do you ever feel, feel so paper-thin

Like a house of cards, one blow from caving in?

 

Do you ever feel already buried deep

Six feet under screams but no one seems to hear a thing

Do you know that there's still a chance for you

'Cause there's a spark in you?

 

You just gotta ignite the light and let it shine

Just own the night like the 4th of July

 

'Cause, baby, you're a firework

Come on, show 'em what you're worth

Make 'em go, "Ah, ah, ah"

As you shoot across the sky

 

Baby, you're a firework

Come on, let your colors burst

Make 'em go, "Ah, ah, ah"

You're gonna leave 'em all in awe, awe, awe

 

You don't have to feel like a wasted space

You're original, cannot be replaced

If you only knew what the future holds

After a hurricane comes a rainbow

 

Maybe a reason why all the doors are closed

So you could open one that leads you to the perfect road

Like a lightning bolt your heart will glow

And when it's time you'll know

 

You just gotta ignite the light and let it shine

Just own the night like the 4th of July

 

'Cause, baby, you're a firework

Come on, show 'em what you're worth

Make 'em go, "Ah, ah, ah"

As you shoot across the sky

 

Baby, you're a firework

Come on, let your colors burst

Make 'em go, "Ah, ah, ah"

You're gonna leave 'em all in awe, awe, awe

 

Boom, boom, boom

Even brighter than the moon, moon, moon

It's always been inside of you, you, you

And now it's time to let it through, -ough, -ough

 

'Cause, baby, you're a firework

Come on, show 'em what you're worth

Make 'em go, "Ah, ah, ah"

As you shoot across the sky

 

Baby, you're a firework

Come on, let your colors burst

Make 'em go, "Ah, ah, ah"

You're gonna leave 'em all in awe, awe, awe

 

Boom, boom, boom

Even brighter than the moon, moon, moon

Boom, boom, boom

Even brighter than the moon, moon, moon

Pumping station "de Vier Noorder Koggen". Built in 1869 to replace some polder mills for the draining of the polder land to the former Zuiderzee. The pumping station consists of two parts: the old pumping station from 1869 and on the left the new pumping station from 1907.

 

The old pumping station worked well, but that was not enough. The pumping station, and also the mills, were running at full power, but the area behind the dike remained too wet. There were also votes to build another pumping station, but the high costs were feared. The farmers complained of stone and bone. After a lot of talking, while meanwhile wet years caused a lot of damage, it was finally decided to expand the old pumping station with a new section in which a gas engine would be placed. The new building was completed in 1907. The mills were no longer needed. The millers were fired and had to leave their home and workplace. The windmills were sold for five hundred guilders each. Of the twenty mills, which were managed by the Vier Noorder Koggen, only the West-Uit 7 mill at Aartswoud was spared. The appearance of the Brakepolder changed considerably when fourteen windmills disappeared from the landscape there in just a short time.

During World War I, opponents of steam were proved right when the pumping station ran into problems because the coal supply stopped. It was decided to keep a large stock of coal available at all times.

Replaced the original portrait image with this landscape one as it suits the fine scene at the top of Padley Gorge better.

Let's call it "progressive insight" I was not completely satisfied with the first edit, the white balance wasn't spot on and it looked over edited. So this is version 2.

The gardens evolved from an earlier formal Baroque garden laid out around Stowe House, home of the Temple-Grenville family. In about 1718 Richard Temple, Baron (later Viscount) Cobham decided to replace that formal garden with one that was more in keeping with his own sense of what a garden ought to be.

My minor social media problems are being replaced by a psycho colleague at work (it's not a Harvey Weinstein/Kevin Spacey type of conflict in case anyone assumes that), which is much more serious, I'm sorry if my participation lessens in the coming days until i figure out a way to deal with that situation.

⭐️Thank you in Advance for your kind ‘Faves’ Visits and Comments they are so very much appreciated. 👍

 

I cannot always ‘Thank’ everyone individually, for their Visits and ‘Faves’ however, I will always try to respond and thank all those that leave a ‘Comment’. If I do not reply to your 'Comment', it is not because I am ignoring you, it's because I have not seen the 'Comment'.

 

Your 'Comments' do not always appear in 'Notifications' or Flickr mail, so, I am sorry for any delay in responding. Often your 'Comment' is only spotted 'On the Page' on the day, that I see it. (seen ONLY when replying to someone HAS 'Commented' on the image, and I see a notification)

Gotta grab the ladder and replace a bulb.

 

The Bridge....

 

Saturday Karen and I made our way to the south end of Heart Lake Conservation Area; The fall is a fickle time. some years the leaves changing colours are okay and others they don't change much at all. some years they last for a long time others a sudden storm and strong winds and its all over.

 

This is probably the last weekend for shooting fall colours in southern Ontario, the colour display is off the charts, so may varied shades of red, yellow and burnt orange.

 

this shot is of the bridge in the middle of the park, it is showing signs of its age and will probably be replaced with a much better newer one, but i do love the old worn out version.

 

Thank you for visiting for marking my photo as a favourite and for the kind comments,

Located in the Ostiense district of Rome, its original appearance underwent a restructuring in period style and the mosaic of its façade was replaced because it was destroyed. Inside you can find a coffered ceiling and eighty columns of granite, also we have some beautiful remnants of the original basilica.

In 1835, Berwick was told that its prison in the Town Hall was unsuitable and needed to be replaced. It took sometime to find a site, agree on plans and raise the money to do this. However, this project finally came to fruition with the opening of this building in Wallace Green in 1849 as a Prison. It's history as a prison was relatively short lived as it closed in 1878. However, having cost so much to build, a new use had to be found for it. Initially it was used as a Court house and by Berwick's Police Force, but then in the early 1890s it was purchased by Berwick's

Urban Sanitary Authority, it was converted to office

accommodation and stables were built on the back of the site. A plaque above the main door commemorates the completion of this work in 1892. From then until 2009, the building was used a Council administrative buildings, being eventually sold after 2015 to a local developer, who has converted it to four properties, retaining many of its original features, including some of the prison cells on the top floor.

This was made with my first attempt to create a texture. It's quite basic made using watercolor paper and charcoal, scanned into the computer. Unfortunately I hadnt realised the paper was too large for the scanner so it was quite what I had wanted. The photo has had the usual treatment in photomatix and photoshop.

On 29 January 1971, the first to Royal Air Force Puma helicopters were delivered into service.

To commemorate 50 years of service, Puma HC Mk2 XW224 has been given a unique new paint scheme.

The engine housing boasts the badges of all the squadrons who have flown the Puma, both as a HC Mk 1 and a HC Mk 2;

The tail fin is emblazoned with the union flag;

The standard Royal Air Force logo on the cabin door has been replaced with the bespoke Puma 50 logo.

This 1960 Aston Martin DB4GT, driven by Urs and Arlette Muller, was sporting a set of black wire wheels at the Goodwood Revival instead of its usual Borrani silver set I've seen it with previously, adding a sense of menace to the car that was previously missing. It also looks like the suspension has been worked on as well, with the car sitting slightly lower than normal (although this may be the combination of wheels/offset/angle of shot that give this illusion).

 

I've struggled to find any information about this DB4GT, so don't know its provenance, although I think its likely to be a continuation/replica given that there were only 75 genuine DB4GT's produced, 6 of which were in the lightweight spec where aluminium was used along with some extensive drilling of solid parts and stripping of luxury items such as the radio, clock, window washer bottle and bumpers.

 

A number of standard DB4GT's were brought closer to the lightweight spec after they were produced, but its not clear how extensive this was in terms of fitting of aluminium panels or the drilling of the chassis members.

 

The DB4GT itself is shorter in the wheelbase by 5 inches compared to the regulat DB4, and features closed headlights abd the larger bonnet vent. In keeping with Aston Martins luxury ethos, the DB4GT's were still fitted with leather upholstery and wilton carpets, something I'm sure was soon replaced or removed by owners keen to further improve performance.

There are so many places that are perfect for a bench.

This is the St. Laurentius Chapel in the beautiful Rhön- Biosphere Reserve. Behind the scene is the mountain range called Skittles, with rolling hills and a long long road, it is 431 above sea level. (NN) The single tree and chapel blend so nicely into the landscape. I have a confession to make. Next to the chapel there was 1 car and 5 unknown people having a conversation. They already had 80% thicker cheeks from all the chatting, real photo bombs. Which isn't my cup of tea. So I removed them without further ado, but no one died. They were so small it wasn't a problem. Oh oh ;-)) Of course, instead of using PS tools, I would have replaced them with the camera and a long exposure, at least partially, but unfortunately I forgot my tripod and filters. I will definitely come back here sometime, because there is a wonderful view of the other side from the bench. I can't wait because, I have nice memories of that day.

  

HBM, everyone!!!

 

Thanks for taking the time to look at my photo, I appreciate that very much!

Mimus gilvus (Tropical Mockingbird / Sinsonte tropical)

 

The Tropical Mockingbird is the neotropical counterpart to the Northern Mockingbird (Mimus polyglottus), replacing Northern Mockingbird south of the Isthmus of Tehuantepec. The two species are similar in appearance, but Tropical Mockingbird has less white in the wings, lacking the white primary coverts and white bases to the primaries of Northern Mockingbird.

ENG: The Schäzlerpalais Staircase in Augsburg can be seen, this museum houses the municipal and state art collection. It is located at the Herkulesbrunnen, directly at the corner of Maximilianstraße and Katharinengasse and used to be the city palace of a banker.

 

The former Palais House on site was replaced by a new building in 1765. This rococo palace was built according to plans by the Munich court architect Karl Albert von Lespilliez. The construction work took four and a half years. In October 1958, Wolfgang Freiherr von Schaezler (fourth generation) donated the building to the city of Augsburg on condition that it never be sold and used exclusively for cultural purposes.

 

GER: Zu sehen ist das Augsburger Schäzlerpalais Treppenhaus, dieses Museum beherbergt die städtische und staatliche Kunstsammlung. Es liegt am Herkulesbrunnen, direkt an der Maximilianstraße Ecke Katharinengasse und war früher das Stadtschloss eines Bankiers.

 

Das ehemalige Palais Haus vor Ort wurde ab 1765 durch einen Neubau ersetzt. Dieses Rokoko-Palais entstand nach Plänen des Münchner Hofbaumeisters Karl Albert von Lespilliez. Die Baumaßnahmen dauerten viereinhalb Jahre. Im Oktober 1958 schenkte Wolfgang Freiherr von Schaezler (in vierter Generation) das Gebäude der Stadt Augsburg mit der Auflage, es niemals zu veräußern und ausschließlich für kulturelle Zwecke zu nutzen.

Norfolk has literally dozens of windmills. Many were used for drainage purposes while others were used to produce flour. The vast majority seem to date from the late 1700s or the first few decades of the 1800s.

 

This Grade II*-listed six-storey tower mill at Burnham Overy Staithe in north Norfolk was built in 1816 and ceased working just over 100 years later in 1919. The mill was sold in 1926 and converted into holiday accommodation. Restoration was carried out in 1957 and the mill was given to the National Trust a year later. The stocks and sails were replaced in 1985.

When Iceland changed from left hand traffic to right hand traffic in 1968 the whole bus fleet in Reykjavík had to be renowed and all the old yellow buses where replaced by beautiful new, green Volvo buses. After faithful service this one was parked in the beautiful valley Vatnsdalur in northern Iceland where it now gives horses a shelter from the storm.

I replaced the small perch wih a stick I had found at one of the rapids in the Rio Grande. I put the camera on the tripod a few feet way. Then I set up my Canon R7 to be controlled by the Canon app in my iPhone while I was inside the house. Then just waited, and waited. And then waited some more. Finally, my small friend showed up late in the day as the light was going down. In my excitement I did not raise the ISO. I was lucky to get one sharp frame at 1/15 sec.

(replaced with different version!)

I guess theyve replaced the wooden steps with metal ones not too long ago.

 

Last year, in Spring, our garden was full of colourful blooms but, with the amount of rain which fell in our absence, a lot of plants did not survive :(

I feel blessed that our home didn't get flooded like many others, though : after all, flowering plants can always be replaced !

Betnava Castle

Schloss Betnava

 

ENG:

The modern Betnava mansion replaced a medieval court, which was first mentioned in medieval written sources in 1313 as the court of Rudolf, a Maribor citizen and former provincial clerk in Breg near Maribor. The second reliable mention of Betnava can be found in a document from 1363: it is mentioned as Paldrumss hoff – Paltram's manor, i.e. the manor of Rudolf's son Paltram (I). In a document from 1378, Rudolf's grandson Paltram (II) is referred to as von Wintnaw – from Betnava – and this is the first explicit mention of Betnava. Probably at the beginning of the 16th century, but certainly before 1526, the Auerspergs became the owners. In 1555, Volf Engelbert Auersperg sold the estate to his brother-in-law Luka Szekely, and in 1587, the Herbersteins became the owners. In 1677, Janez Jakob Count Khisl bought the castle, but it burned down in 1685. The building was supposedly only restored by the Counts of Brandis, who inherited Betnava along with other associated estates in 1727. Betnava remained in the possession of the Brandis family until 1863, when it became the summer residence of the bishops of Lavant. In 1941, the German occupiers took the manor away from the diocese, and after the war it became state property.

 

GER:

Das moderne Herrenhaus Betnava ersetzte einen mittelalterlichen Hof, der erstmals 1313 in mittelalterlichen Schriftquellen als Hof von Rudolf, einem Bürger von Maribor und ehemaligen Provinzbeamten in Breg bei Maribor, erwähnt wurde. Die zweite zuverlässige Erwähnung von Betnava findet sich in einem Dokument aus dem Jahr 1363: Es wird als „Paldrumss hoff“ – Paltrams Hof, d. h. der Hof von Rudolfs Sohn Paltram (I) – erwähnt. In einem Dokument aus dem Jahr 1378 wird Rudolfs Enkel Paltram (II.) als „von Wintnaw“ – aus Betnava – bezeichnet, und dies ist die erste explizite Erwähnung von Betnava. Wahrscheinlich zu Beginn des 16. Jahrhunderts, aber sicherlich vor 1526, wurden die Auerspergs zu den Eigentümern. Im Jahr 1555 verkaufte Volf Engelbert Auersperg das Anwesen an seinen Schwager Luka Szekely, und 1587 wurden die Herbersteins zu den Eigentümern. Im Jahr 1677 kaufte Janez Jakob Graf Khisl das Schloss, das jedoch 1685 niederbrannte. Das Gebäude wurde vermutlich erst von den Grafen von Brandis wieder aufgebaut, die Betnava zusammen mit anderen dazugehörigen Gütern 1727 erbten. Betnava blieb bis 1863 im Besitz der Familie Brandis, dann wurde es zur Sommerresidenz der Bischöfe von Lavant. 1941 nahmen die deutschen Besatzer das Gut der Diözese weg, und nach dem Krieg ging es in Staatsbesitz über.

The OLI motor had been bouncing back and forth on the Zephyr for a few weeks as I was prepping my move from Ottumwa. Despite being a filthy mess, the front end still looked decent in the sun. This day had been fairly cloudy for most of it, but the sun came out at the right time for the late station stop. I wanted to be sure to grab this view that will be impossible in short order as the platforms are being replaced and the depot will soon be shielded by a beautiful new canopy.

The westbound Borealis overtakes a loaded BNSF sand train on the joint trackage west of St. Croix. The train was running approximately 20 minutes late due to the 500 having to be replaced with the 518 at Chicago Union Station. They would end up losing another 45 minutes at Hoffman waiting for CPKC 243 to double up and depart.

Il terzo giorno a Bridgetown, di primo mattino, arriva un taxi dell'agenzia d'appoggio alla nave e mi conduce al porto. zona banchine per navi da crociera. La vedo ed è amore a prima vista, gran voglia di scattarle subito una foto, ma sarebbe indelicato, così salgo a bordo, mi presento al Primo Ufficiale che dovrò sostituire e disbrigo tutte le pratiche, prendendo anche conoscenza della nave che non conoscevo (mia prima volta a bordo di un veliero) Solo verso il tramonto mi prendo 5 minuti per scendere a terra e immortalarla. I velieri sono più belli in mare aperto, con le vele spiegate e gonfie di vento. Ormeggiate in banchina, come anche ancorate in rada, le vele sono raccolte e quasi invisibili. Ma io la guardo e il cuore mi batte più forte

 

On the third day in Bridgetown, early in the morning, a person from the ship's support agency arrives and takes me to the port. dock area for cruise ships. As I see her it's love at first sight, I really want to take a photo right away, but it would be indelicate, so I get on board, introduce myself to the Chief Officer who I will have to replace and take care of all the paperwork, also getting to know the ship that I didn't know (my first time on board a sailing ship) Only towards sunset I can take 5 minutes to go ashore and immortalise her. Sailing ships are more beautiful in the open sea, with their sails unfurled and billowing in the wind. Moored at the quay, as well as anchored in the harbor, the sails are gathered up and almost invisible. But I look at her and my heart beats faster

Farmall 656 tractor sitting next to a couple of grain bins near Alvo, NE. The coffee can on the exhaust is not a factory item.

 

Destined to replace the 06 series, the 56 series was introduced in 1965 with a single model: the 656. International’s Farmall 656 was billed as a 12-month worker, efficient enough to handle lighter utility work and powerful enough to pull a 4-5 bottom plow.

 

The Farmall 656 was released as an individual model without much fanfare. In the first production year, only Farmall versions of 656 were available. Customers could order their 656 with one of two available six-cylinder engines. The C-263 gasoline or LP engine provided about 64 horsepower at the power takeoff. The D-282 diesel offered about the same power but with more torque, longevity, and fuel efficiency.

These old windmills have sadly been replaced with more reliable but rather less obvious electric pumps
