While at Reifel today, I was blessed with a rare sighting of this little fella. Seen in BC, Canada only every couple of years, it was a sight to behold. Made my day!

A bit of focus on locomotive builder Sharp Stewart and Company today - works no.2961 was a 3'6" gauge 2-4-0 built in Manchester in 1881 for the Staats Spoorwegen (Indonesia). Seen here 97 years later at Kanigoro (?) with a passenger train from Madiun to Ponorogo.
Sharp, Stewart and Company was established in 1843, initially based in Manchester, England before moving to Glasgow, Scotland in 1888. In 1903, having built over 5000 locomotives, the company amalgamated with Neilson, Reid and Company and Dübs and Company to form the North British Locomotive Company.
This adult Sharpie showed up and sat in the backyard for a good 15 minutes the other day waiting for an opportunity for a free meal.

An interesting image for me - on my laptop this looks like the background is almost grey. On my 4k monitor it looks brown (which is what it is in reality). On my tablet, it shows about half way between the two.
Laptop screens don't seem to have much in the way of calibration options and it just shows that people may not be seeing what I think they are.

I looked out my kitchen window just as this hawk flew by and landed in the oak tree.
Photo taken in Montgomery County, Maryland.
As I took my friend from out of town around the city of London I decided that I would shot this again. I ended up liking the angle better this time, so here it is.
I am off to stay at a friends flat in Glasgow for 5 days then we head off the the Isle of Skye for 5 days of sailing. I am not sure how much I will get posted on flickr while I am gone but will do my best. I hope everyone is enjoying there summer.
The hawk was perched for at least 10 minutes in the lilac shrub at the very back of the garden. Photo taken through window.
"Sharp Cactus Buds" by Patti Deters. Surrounding the buds at the top of this cactus stem are extremely pointed and very sharp thorns known as spines. These tiny prickers are actually modified leaves that provide a variety of help to these desert plants. One of the main functions is that they protect the cacti flesh from predators - the sharp thorns repel most (but not all) animals. Something you wouldn't at first think is that the little shards also provide shade for the cactus itself. The prickly spines reduce water evaporation and also help with propagation by getting "stuck" to animals and people who help disburse the seeds.
