A buzzard basking in the last light of the day, Halesworth, Suffolk.
Buzzard on a wooden post, with a streaky sky behind.

Happy 50th anniversary to the iconic high speed train/HST/Inter City 125, which still operates on Scottish services, test trains and charters. #HST50
Collage of six images of the HST, in various historic liveries, including Inter City, East Midlands Trains, Virgin East Coast and Great Western. A HST with buffers. A Midland Pullman HST charter.

Surely the biker dog deserves chips, too?
A couple of cyclists, one wearing a hi-vis jacket, eat chips on Mumbles pier - watched by their dog, who is also wearing hi-vis.

Office wisdom.
A sign on a wall that reads: "Rage Against the Machine never specified what type of machine they were furious with, but I reckon it was probably a printer."

Who knew castles were dangerous? Heritage health and safety for the hapless.
A warning sign showing someone falling down stairs. A warning sign showing someone bumping their head. Two warning signs - the top one showing someone falling down stairs and the lower one showing someone with their hand to their forehead, having an existential crisis.

Climbing the dune.
A woman is sat down with her dog on a beach. She is looking at her phone, while her two small children climb a tall sand dune.

The atmospheric ruined tower of All Saints' Church, Gillingham, just over the Norfolk/Suffolk border from Beccles.
A ruined church tower, surrounded by trees. Looking up to the sky through the roofless church tower. Trees framed by the arch of the ruined church. The stone window frame of the ruined church, with trees beyond.

Oystercatchers live on coasts and shorelines worldwide.
Because young oystercatchers lack the strength and skill to pry open hard-shelled prey like mussels, clams, and limpets, both parents continue feeding them for up to 6 months while they master these complex feeding techniques.

The gleaming green machine - Deltic D9015 Tulyar at Birstall on the Great Central Railway today. She sounds as good as she looks. @jedkendray.bsky.social @pickgs.bsky.social @gerbil1978.bsky.social @rangercaps66.bsky.social
A green diesel loco fills the air with smoke as it hauls its train up an incline and past the trees.
