.... And in with the new!!
A surprise contract win for Skills Coaches has led to their first stage carriage route in many years, Medilink!!
Starting in 2005 with just two 16 seat Mellor bodied Merc Sprinters every 30 minutes running non-stop between the two hospitals, the service has gone from strength to strength in the twenty years since.
This latest offering gives a double deck service every 15 minutes from 0600 to 2130 (there are also buses each way at 0500 and 0530 for the earlybirds) using just six buses, a massive PVR saving over all the electrics singles which were swapped over during the day.
YX75KVR is pictured out on it's first day on the road and first day of the new contract, seen climbing Linden Way in City Hospital with a Medilink to Queens Drive Park & Ride via Hucknall Road, Wilkinson Street Tram Stop and QMC.

Ladies Day at Royal Ascot always attracts a good number of visiting coaches with 2019 proving to be no exception. Examples of bodywork by Berkhof, Beulas, BMC, Bova, Caetano, Higer, Irizar, Jonckheere, Kassbohrer, King Long, Lahden, Marcopolo, Mercedes-Benz, Mobipeople, Neoplan, Plaxton, Scania, Setra, Sunsundegui, Temsa, Unvi, VDL, Van Hool, Volvo and Yutong kept the camera busy. My shots were taken in and around the various coach parks used on the Thursday.
This Scania N113 orignially served with Veolia Cymru in South Wales, but is now in the ownership of Nottingham based Skills Coches of Bulwell. Like most of the Skill's contract fleet is wears a bright yellow livery making it visible from some distance away. The bus is pictured on Eastwood Road, Kimberley, Nottingham en route to Kimberley High School on the morning run.

We interrupt this series of Alaskan images to bring you an important public service announcement ... TGIF!!!
OK, I know I have lots of you feeling the same way. Getting all ready to finish off this work week and dive on in to the upcoming weekend!
Last night, I was going through my archive when I noticed something. Over late spring/early summer, I spent many hours photographing and hanging out with the burrowing owls of Broward County. However, I hadn't shared many of the images of these adorable little owls. Solution ... celebrate this Friday with one of my favorite ones.
As the young burrowing owls learn the ways of their world, they tend to do a lot of flying around. The burrows are staked out, so that's the perfect landing for them. It's also obviously where they launch from as well.
I love this image, as it almost appears as though the owl was using a visualization technique as it prepped for its launch. OK ... get on the edge of the stake... up with the wings... target in sight ... that's how it's done. LOL
Hope everyone knows how their weekend plans will unfold as well. I'm excited to say that I hope to be out photographing this weekend, as it has been a while since I have. Wishing everyone the best!
Thanks for stopping by to view and especially for sharing your thoughts and comments.
