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.
The Canadian Tiger Swallowtail is found in most provinces and territories in Canada, as its name implies. Its range extends north of the Arctic Circle in the Yukon, and to Churchill in Manitoba, Little Shagamu River in Ontario, and to Schefferville in Quebec. It does not occur in southern British Columbia, being replaced there by the western tiger swallowtail, Papilio rutulus, or in southwestern Ontario, approximately west of Toronto, where it is replaced by the eastern tiger swallowtail. It has not been reported from Labrador, but has been seen in western Newfoundland. It is seen in the northern third of the United States. Within this range, it is a very common and well-known butterfly, even more so around woodland edges. It is one of the most common puddling species and often hundreds will gather at a single puddle.

Butterflies seem to be in short supply this year so I was pleased to find this swallowtail feeding on the nectar of the honeysuckle.

These folks have replaced the traditional barking dog with ‘guard cacti’. Really who says cacti in everyday speak? The fence is only in the front of the property and does not extend around the side. Obviously there are plans for more cactus plants in the future. I think there should be a sign saying, “Beware of Cacti. Get the point? You could be stuck until the police arrive.” As Robin would say, “Holy prickly situation, Batman.”
it is assumed that Gorinchem was founded circa 1000 CE by fishermen and farmers on the raised land near the mouth of the river Linge at the Merwede. (Home of Gorik) is first mentioned in a document from 1224 in which Floris IV granted people from Gorinchem exemption of toll payments throughout Holland.
Somewhere between 1247 and 1267, Gorinchem became property of the Lords of Arkel. At the end of the 13th century earthen mounts reinforced with palisades were built around the settlement to protect it from domination by the neighboring counties of Holland and Gelre. Half a century later real city walls were built complete with 7 gates and 23 watchtowers. Otto van Arkel granted it city rights on 11 November 1322.
Jan van Arkel had a dispute with Albert I, brother of Willem V of Holland, leading to war and subsequently to the annexation of Gorinchem to Holland in 1417. This resulted in increased trade and Gorinchem grew to be the eighth city of Holland.
On 9 July 1572, the Watergeuzen (Dutch rebels against Spanish rule) conquered the city and captured 19 Catholic priests and monks. Because they refused to renounce their faith, these priests and monks were brought to Brielle where they were hanged and were from then on known among Catholics as the Martyrs of Gorkum.
By the 16th century, the city walls were so deteriorated that they were replaced with new fortifications and eleven bastions that still are almost completely intact. The new walls were completed in 1609 and were located further from the town centre, making the city twice as large. In 1673, Gorinchem became part of the old Dutch Water Line.
The city walls had four city gates: the Arkel Gate in the north, the Dalem Gate in the east, the Water Gate in the south (where the ferry to Woudrichem was), and the Kansel Gate in the west. Of these four gates, only the Dalem Gate remains. The others were removed in the 19th century to make way for vehicular traffic. A portion of the Water Gate was preserved in the gardens of the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam.

Still practicing with the A9, despite it being cloudy this morning, with little sun.
Edited in Capture One, and still learning that too. Tried removing the noise as much as possible, but there's still a bit too much there for my liking.
But, I'll keep percevering.
On 26/1/2019 I replaced the original noisy image with an edit from Lightroom.
The Queenscliff High Light, also variously known as the Black Lighthouse, Fort Queenscliff Lighthouse or Shortland Bluff Light, stands in the grounds of Fort Queenscliff in Queenscliff, Victoria, Australia. It is one of three black lighthouses in the world, and the only one in the Southern Hemisphere. Together with the nearby white Queenscliff Low Light, it was built in 1862 to replace the former sandstone lighthouse of 1843.

Interior from Garmo stave church at Maihaugen in Lillehammer, Norway. The baptismal font is made from soapstone and dates to the 12th century.
This stave church originally dates to the middle of the 12th century - later expanded in the 18th century. In the 19th century the church was replaced with a newly built on in Garmo and this one was dismantled and sold at auction(!) in 1880. It was bought by Trond Eklestuen, who spent much time buying traditional Norwegian objects (and buildings) and giving them away to museums for preservation. The church ended up at Maihaugen (the largest open-air museum in northern Europe, founded in 1904), a place dedicated to the preservation of Norwegian history and architecture. The church was rebuilt there in 1921.
The first attempt to replace the wooden fort with a stone kremlin was recorded in 1374, but construction was limited to a single tower, known as the Dmitrovskaya Tower (this has not survived). Under the rule of Ivan III, Nizhny Novgorod played the role of a guard city, having a permanent garrison; it served as a place for gathering troops for Moscow’s actions against the Khanate of Kazan. In order to strengthen the defenses of the city, construction works on the walls began again.
Construction of the stone Kremlin of Nizhny Novgorod began in 1500 with the building of the Ivanovskaya Tower; the main work commenced in 1508 and by 1515 a grandiose building was completed. The oak walls that formed the old fortifications were destroyed by a huge fire in 1513. The two kilometer wall was reinforced by 13 towers (one of them – Zachatskaya – was on the shore of the Volga; not preserved, but was rebuilt in 2012). This “Stone City” had a permanent garrison with solid artillery weapons. With the fall of Kazan, Nizhny Novgorod Kremlin lost its military significance, and later it housed the city and provincial authorities.
Memorial “Gorky for the front!” on the territory of the Kremlin between Dmitrovskaya and Kladovaya (Pantry) towers. 1986
During the World War II, the roofs of the Taynitskaya, the Severnaya, and the Chasovaya Towers were dismantled and anti-aircraft machine guns were installed on the upper platforms. Thus, the fortress defended the airspace of the city from the Luftwaffe. The Luftwaffe bombed the Kanavinsky Bridge and the Fair, but the Kremlin's air defense defended these objects.
The Council of Ministers of the RSFSR issued an order on January 30, 1949 for the restoration of the Nizhny Novgorod Kremlin.
In October 2018, archaeologists discovered the remains of a medieval settlement and cemetery on the site of the destroyed church of St. Simeon Stylites. The finds belong to the 13th century, and the most ancient cultural layer - to 1221, when Nizhny Novgorod was founded. After all the excavations, the exhibits will be museified, and the church of St. Simeon the Stylite will be recreated at this place.
In 2021, before the 800th anniversary of Nizhny Novgorod, a major restoration was carried out. Under its terms, the most important thing was the restoration of the historic "battle road" inside the Kremlin wall. The city had been waiting for this event for 230 years. Since August 2021, locals and tourists can walk a full circular route along the large fortress wall while inside it. Its length is 2 km.
I replaced new Nagai's silicon plug cord for the first time in more than a dozen years. The cause of the malfunction was the deterioration of the plug cord.
Aw !!!!! As you can see in my today's photos, their blooms are soooo adorably and deliciously formed, so gracefully colored!!! The plants are so generously built and colored !! The Divine Creator was full of inspiration and joy , really, while creating the blooms of these Beauties : Hydrangeas or Hortansias! ( Hydrangea = Hydra+Gea = Filled with water + earth, in Greek, implies that Hydrangeas are really fond of humid soil and atmosphere!!)
In my garden, they replace in July certain large-bloomed Roses in blooming, while these first ones carry faded rose blooms, and are being prepared for their second wave of blooming!! Therefore, the garden remains colorful non stop!! Which was really my target-aim while organizing its creation and planting in the mixed borders.…
Hydrangeas are generally carrying two types of blooms in various sizes and colors, according to the unique characteristics of each plant! They are either round bloomed-– Hydrangeas Mopheads--- or disc-like bloomed –Lacecup Hydrangeas Macrophyllas!
You can read here in this BBC ’s special gardening website how to grow them successfully!! www.gardenersworld.com/how-to/grow-plants/how-to-grow-hyd...

I replaced the suet in the feeder cage and put the remains on the deck handrail. The Blue Jay seemed to prefer pecking at it on the handrail - not much left of it now. Maybe that's why he posed for me, usually they are very skittish.
The original Tappen Zee Bridge was built in 1955 where Interstate 87 flowed over north to Albany and straight on to the Canadian border towards Montreal. However by the ninety eighties it was already obsolete in design in that it was too narrow to handle the contemporary traffic flow. By the nineties negligence and the elements forced the state to spend huge amounts on money just to keep it safely repaired and there were was strong pressure to have a new bridge replaced it. Finally after literally decades of political and financial haggling the new replacement bridge shown above opened up for service with two extra lanes for traffic and considered vastly more visually pleasing in design compared to the old bridge was considered by many an eyesore and named after Governor Mario Coumo who initiated the moves to have a new bridge built while the old bridge which was dynamited and sold for scrap.
A few metres out into the river at Chalkwell Beach lies a peculiar obelisk stranded in the water. From the shore, it looks like a mysterious ruin of an ancient civilisation, although it is in fact the ‘Crowstone’ installed in 1836/7. It replaced a smaller stone post that was set in place in 1755. The Crow Stone is a London stone which at the time marked the seaward limit of the River Thames under the City of London’s jurisdiction.
Replacing the wall at St Fagans National History Museum.
The arch has always been a lovely feature of the wall.
Sefton Park, Liverpool.
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.
BNSF 5493 leads what I believe to be a unit sand train of 2-bay hoppers at Savanna, Illinois. The train is passing between the backwater of the edge of the flood-elevated Mississippi River, which should normally be just to the left side of this photo, though the flooding is down a couple of feet from it's crest about a week earlier. While locals including the owners of the water-logged grain elevator seen here wait for the water to recede to perform cleanup, the BNSF seemed to be mostly back to business as usual at this spot. That's the Sabula-Savanna bridge in the distant left, which was opened to traffic in 2017 replacing the previous truss bridge.
A lengthy R-LAUBOZ blasts through the town of Big Timber with a pair of classic EMDs up front. The signal here is a bit of an oddity, with modern heads mounted on the original Northern Pacific cantilever. Most of the other replaced signals have modern aluminum masts (with a few aluminum cantilevers here and there).
Built in 1640 it replaced the Medieval St Mary's of the Lowes
Situated in wonderful countryside of the Scottish Borders
Fort Amherst is located on the southern side of The Narrow (the entrance to St. John's Harbour). The first lighthouse in this location was built in 1810 and replaced a number of times throughout the years. This little one was build in 1951. Also seen are the remains of gun emplacements and pillboxes built during World War II to defend against U-boats and any uncooperative ships. For those brave enough, apparently you can jump the fence and go down there to explore. Maybe, one of these day days, I'll work up the nerve! ;-)
The rare breed ewes will be giving birth at St Fagans' museum farm during March. There are currently about 100 breeding ewes in the flock and they are hoping for over 150 lambs. There is a lovely Webcam throughout lambing.
Llwyn yr Eos farm is located at St Fagans National Museum of History, outside Cardiff, Wales. You're welcome to visit the lambing shed
The ewe had number 1 painted on her back so these were the first born. 90 lambs have been born so far.
They will be checked regularly so the lost coat will soon be replaced.
Pan Am's OCS rolls west into the interlocking at CPF363 in Athol, Massachusetts, also known as Tyters. This interlocking is one of a few that still has an equilateral switch, a feature that used to be much more common on the old B&M, but most have been replaced over the years. The light rain falling at the time of this photo will have given way to a downpour and nightfall by the time the OCS reaches East Deerfield, and yards the train.

This is the far south-east of Cornwall, where the beautiful rolling countryside has several river valleys running through it. This is the most important river of them all - the Tamar - which for much of its length acts as the border between Devon and Cornwall. The Cornish town of Saltash is just out of shot on the left. About a mile north of here the Tamar will have been joined by the Tavy, which has its source on Dartmoor. A couple of hundred yards behind the camera are the two famous Tamar bridges which connect Cornwall and Devon. The road bridge was opened in 1962 and replaced the ferry that used to be here, while Brunel's famous railway bridge dates from 1859. That enabled the Great Western Railway to run from London to Penzance in the far south-west of Cornwall.
A scenic view of the Main Building (known colloquially as The Tower or UT Tower) as seen from the marble benches at the intersection of University Ave. and Martin Luther King Blvd. on south side of the University of Texas campus.
The Main Building is a structure at the center of the University of Texas at Austin campus just north of the State Capitol Building and Downtown Austin. The Main Building's 307-foot (94 m) tower has 28 floors and is one of the most recognizable symbols of the university and the city.
Designed by Paul Philippe Cret, the Beaux-Arts style building was constructed between 1934-1937, replacing an earlier Victorian-Gothic style Main Building that stood on the campus from 1882 to 1934. The 28-story building, including an outdoor observation deck, rises to a height of 307 ft (94 m). At the top of the Tower is a carillon of 56 bells which is played daily. The building now mainly contains administrative offices, along with a three-floor life sciences library and the Miriam Lutcher Stark Library of early and significant editions of English Romanticist works.
The University of Texas at Austin, shortened to UT Austin, UT, or Texas, is a public research university and the flagship institution of the University of Texas System. Founded in 1883, the University of Texas is composed of over 50,000 undergraduate and graduate students and over 24,000 faculty and staff.
A Public Ivy, it is a major center for academic research. The university houses seven museums and seventeen libraries, including the LBJ Presidential Library and the Blanton Museum of Art.

Nearly 152 years after the Union Pacific spiked 56 pound rail on hand-hewn ties, a hot Denver to Salt Lake City UPS train rolls through Echo Canyon, Utah on April 10, 2021. Signs of spring abound on this fine day, including brilliant sunshine, blue skies, and greening vegetation along the right of way. These grasses attempt to cloak an ever-present layer of coal cinders from passing steam powered trains, replaced by diesels more than six decades ago.
Pont de la Tour Eiffel Bridge (1990) in Hull (Gatineau), Quebec, Canada.
As per Wikipedia:
The Tour Eiffel Bridge, also known as the Montcalm Street Bridge is a small but ornate bridge in Gatineau, Quebec. There had long been a bridge across Brewery Creek, but by the 1980s it needed to be replaced. Hull and the National Capital Commission were working to turn the Brewery Creek area into a tourist and cultural district. It was decided to build an ornate structure.
Incorporated in the bridge was an original steel girder from the Eiffel Tower, that had been part of a recently disassembled staircase. The girder was donated to Hull by Paris mayor Jacques Chirac.
Architects Paul Martineau and Eric Haar modeled the bridge on Parisian style. It opened in 1990.
St. Patrick's Cathedral is a decorated Catholic cathedral in the Midtown Manhattan neighborhood of New York City. It is the seat of the archbishop of the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of New York as well as a parish church. The cathedral occupies a city block bounded by Fifth Avenue, Madison Avenue, 50th Street, and 51st Street, directly across from Rockefeller Center. Designed by James Renwick Jr., it is the largest Gothic Revival Catholic cathedral in North America.
The cathedral was constructed starting in 1858 to accommodate the growing Archdiocese of New York and to replace St. Patrick's Old Cathedral. Work was halted in the early 1860s during the American Civil War; the cathedral was completed in 1878 and dedicated on May 25, 1879.
As seen from I79, symbol U702 with 96 taconite loads crosses the Kimbles Viaduct along the Porter Cutoff east of Mercer. The bridge crosses Mills Creek, Scrubgrass Road, and the abandoned right of way of the old B&LE main that the present line replaced.
Luzzus are essentially traditional Maltese fishing boats. They are typically painted in traditional bright colours including blue,
yellow, red and green. You can normally spot a rather large number of luzzus in Malta’s seaside villages.
There is quite a lot of superstition surrounding the luzzu, the most prominent of them all being the painted or engraved pair of eyes on the front of the boat. These eyes are believed to be a modern survival of an old Phoenician tradition, and are normally referred to as the Eye of Orisis, or the Eye of Horus – the Phoenicians’ god of protection from evil. They are a symbol of protection and good health, and are believed to protect the fishermen from any harm while they are out at sea.
In addition to this, luzzus are normally inherited from a person’s father and grandfather. However, although the exact colours of each luzzu vary from one another, the colours of each luzzu are normally kept exactly the same due to superstitious belief. Therefore, when the old paint is completely stripped off the boat every five years, in order for the fisherman to closely inspect his boat for anything that needs to be replaced, the boat is then re-painted in exactly the same colours that the person’s father and grandfather had used.
Pieces of the Sóljeimajökull (Sólheima Glacier) have broken off and are floating down the Jökulsá á Söljeimasandi. I replaced this pic with a jpeg file. The original file was a tiff. After comparing the two side by side the color is deeper in the jpeg. I use both types of files. The original tiff lost some data in the upload such as camera type and settings.

I popped down Loch Eilt to a location where I could look across at the Fort William to Mallaig line. Quickly I saw I hadn't got the right day. I need the waters to be flat calm to get a nice reflection. And some nice light on the hills would help. The train, the Jacobite, was only slightly late but when it came, horror of horrors it was an old diesel relic pulling the train, and not a famous Black Five.........todays' train, no steam or smolke, definitely couldn't be called the Hogwart's Express. I tried imagining how many passengers would be disappointed the steam engine had been replaced with a diesel: it's just not the same.
So I had decided on a two frame stitched pano shot but that went wrong too! I seem to have cut off the end of the train in 'merging' the images. So with a steam train, streaming smoke and steam against the mountains, reflected on still waters it might have looked something, but...not today! At least I don't have to travel far for another try, but I can't predict what the conditions are like on the other side of the mountains from home!
This large dairy barn, built in 1910, sits on the Hjertoos Farm, now know as the Hjertoos Tree Farm in Carnation WA. The Hjertoos, a Norwegian family, arrived in the Snoqualmie Valley in the 1880s. Bergette and Andrew Hjertoos bought this farm from the Shaw family in 1901. At the time the place included a two-story log house, a large house for boarders, and a substantial orchard. In 1905 the Hjertoos build a two-story, wood frame farmhouse to replace the earlier structures. Lumber for the building came from the Preston Mill Company at Preston. The large barn followed in 1910. Though some of the original acreage has been sold or donated, the core of the property remains in the Hjertoos family. Today the farm operates as a tree farm and the barn contain a “loft” available for meetings or overnight lodging. The farm (both house and barn) is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
Euryops chrysanthemoides flower. This South African shrub grows to around 1m tall. It has lush green ferny-looking foliage and large bright yellow daisy flowers in autumn and winter; with regular dead-heading, it will have some flowers during the rest of the year too. It can be pruned quite hard every so often, but eventually it will need to be replaced when it becomes worn out and straggly. It is easy to grow from a cutting or one of the many seedlings it produces.
Such a very nice surprise, to see one of the last civil Tupolev replacing an A320 !

The Wesleyan and Primitive Methodists and Church Army all used 'Gospel cars' in the nineteenth and early twentieth century. Within Methodism, horsedrawn wagons were partly replaced by hand-pushed 'trek carts' in the inter-war years, and finally by deaconess' caravans in the 1950s. Gospel Cars were used for ministry in markets, fairgrounds, at overnight moorings for barge and boat people, and to traveller camps, and to reach rural locations.
This faithful reproduction of Car No 11 was built in 2011, and is currently housed on the Boat Dock at the Black Country Living Museum. This serves to link it within the museum campus with one of the historically marginalized groups - the boat and barge people - to whom the Gospel Car missioners were reaching out. The inside of the Gospel Car can be viewed from the front platform even when no-one is specifically on duty, so visitors can see for themselves how the Gospel Car operated. It was a little home on wheels - what are seats during the day were beds at night. It was a little church on wheels - the bigger audience would be addressed from the platform while the smaller audience would be invited inside. It was a little audio-visual centre - see the organ and the pictures hanging from the wall. What you may not see, because they are stored out of sight, are the gramophone, the percussion band instruments and the magic lantern. It sounds wonderful, but with walls of just a single plank thick it would certainly be very very cold on many a winter night.
