BNSF's RSP38-2 moves around the Westwood yard and onto the main. Crews were testing it to make sure it works in case it is needed later in the season.

These are the big chicks, getting ready to fledge. I've been watching them for a few days, but they've either been flapping on cloudy days or sitting in the nest like bumps on a log on sunny days. I finally got them flapping on a sunny morning even if with the distance away, the partly cloudy sky behind, and the shady nest, the photos aren't the best. This may have been my best chance given that they'll leave soon and cloudy conditions are coming up do to frequent thunderstorms. Great Blue Herons, Siskiyou County, California
I can’t recall ever seeing a Bush Stone‑curlew actually take to the air. For a moment this one looked ready to launch, but it ended up being only a mock take‑off.
I 've found out later that this pose is typical for their courtship dance.

This Common Grackle is testing my ability to be truly inclusive in the bird kingdom. I worked hard to make our backyard welcoming for the local birds. This spring the Chickadees are back making their nest in the nesting box they used last year. I found the Robin’s nest in my Yew tree and I am hoping the young birds survive this year. The Cardinals are nesting in my neighbours yard but the birds come to our feeder everyday. Last year, we had a Chipping Sparrow’s nest with tiny eggs that hatched. This year, the Grackle has decided to nest in the tall cedar in our backyard. This is not a bird I really want in my yard. They can be noisy and bossy. They look sinister with that glaring eye. Yet, we are learning to accept the couple in our yard. What else can we do? They are letting other birds eat from the feeder. Usually, the Grackles will spill seeds to the ground and then eat from the ground while the other birds take their turn at the feeder. The Grackles haven’t been too noisy this week. I’ve never seen juvenile Grackles, so this could be interesting to see. Sometimes we need to let nature take its course. I don’t find it easy to like these birds but I’ll give them a chance. When the sun shines on their feathers, it reveals their beautiful blues and greens and it softens that dark look they can have. If they can get along in my garden, I guess I can too.
A BNSF rack train runs north through the approach to the Eads bridge and up Terminal Railroad's high-line at an obvious location.
Sucky, washed out colors courtesy of about a million western wildfires that have made St. Louis and just about the entire continental US appear to have a permanent overcast. I'll have to try this again when blue skies are back, probably after the election.
Checking out a new (to me!) lens: a Canon EM 18-150 before it was put back in its box to be wrapped up for Christmas!
I like to travel light and my current (& significantly heavier) Canon ES 28-105 needs a Viltrox adapter to fit the M50 making it a tad cumbersome & front heavy.

So, i got a new toy, one of my first flights and only really just getting the hang of it. Lots of ideas... :-)
Minette est décédée, nous l'avons accompagné tout au long de sa dernière piqure en la regardant dans les yeux et en la caressant jusqu'à son dernier souffle. Nous faisons beaucoup de photos de nos animaux domestiques car ils sont toujours présents à côté de nous et par amour. Elle a été mon modèle pour tous mes tests d'objectifs et d'appareils photos, elle ne disait rien, et jouait le jeu et tous ses câlins qui vont me manquer. Elle avait 17 ans. Merci !

Bella, cautiously testing the chair only days after I adopted her. The chair had been empty for a few months, Bella needed a new home & I needed a cat. Now, she “knows” the chair belongs to her, though I’m usually allowed to share it!
Happy Caturday
