Wires In The Way

Taken at my friend's ranch near Quesnel, British Columbia, Canada.
This Alder Flycatcher continually and vociferously declared that he offered 'free beer!'...'free beer!'...'free beer!'...I politely tried to tell him that I was a teetotaler, but to no avail. He continued unfazed by my candid remark again offering 'free beer!'...'free beer!'...'free beer!'
You wouldn't have any non-alcoholic ginger beer would you? I am kinda partial to that, after all.

I appreciate your comments and views. I will be off here for about 10 days will be commenting as I can . Have a great day everyone.
This is the exit point of the Wire Pass trail (which passes through a narrow slot canyon) at the conjunction where it enters Buckskin Gulch in Utah's Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument. I love walking in slot canyons. Note the hiker near the far wall for scale.
For Macro Mondays #holes theme
Just one hole visible here (which I think is ok for the theme), and I'm kind-of excited that you can actually see all the way through it. Unfortunately, there's not much of interest on the other side, so it really isn't worth bothering to look. Plus looking closely would probably draw far too much attention to the detail, including a thread that I couldn't get rid of :-(
An interesting theme; got me thinking about how important holes are. Nice for them to get a bit of attention :-)
oh and I'm conscious that my photostream has been a bit monochromy of late - not quite sure how that happened :-) ; trying to get back to some colour soon, but this shot kind of lent itself to subtle toning
naked wires, their thoughts exposed for all to see,,
in darkness they are safe, but here, now they stand vulnerable
This is the first swallow I met this spring. Swallows are back and they are now building their nests with mud and hay. This one is taking a rest, from its work. Notice the beak (its tool for the constructions) covered with mud.
Wires on an old fence covered in tiny ice crystals from days of sub zero temperatures and heavy frosts.

The Conemaugh and Black Lick pulls seven cars of steel wire along the Conemaugh River to the former Bethlehem Steel wire mill across town, now operated by Liberty Wire.
#104 was one of at least fifteen EMD SW7s delivered to the C&BL in the late 40s and early 50s. During the days of Bethlehem Steel, they had as many as a dozen switchers active during the day.

This is one of many photos I’ve taken from the passenger seat as we drive twice each week to my neurofeedback appointments. This practice of seeing, appreciating and capturing my surroundings from the moving car can sometimes be very helpful for me.

Kruger National Park
Photographed at the remote Grootvlei Dam in the north-eastern part of the Park, very close to the border with Mozambique. The great distance between the Shingwetzi and Letaba Rivers makes the dam an important halfway water source, especially during the dry season.
Dutchmen Pipe Leaf vine wrapped around the barbed wire in the late evening bokeh as the sun went down through the trees and the light shining in .I like the way the vine wraps around the barbed wire mingling together and I enjoy the spider webs that are not seen until you look close, My sister gave me this Dutchmen pipe vine many years ago
