This P43 Explosives Van is located in the Donald Lions Heritage Train Park. Vans such as this were constructed 1953-1959 at the Newport Workshops and were typically used to transport goods to and from the ICI plant at Ardeer. When loaded with explosives, departmental regulations required "safety" wagons coupled between the loaded P vans. These vans were also seen on the Stawell line delivering explosives to the mines and on the Mildura line carrying detonators. They were painted a much brighter shade of red than the usual VR freight red.

Donald Trump. Would you be my Valentine?
Oh, wait. I am sorry, I so apologize to everyone. What I meant to say was, That old tree stump. Would you be my Valentine?
Happy Valentine Day to all my lovely Flickeroos.
I think with that tag, I might get a lot of views.
I found Donald and his duck at a goodwill store sitting on a shelf. I loved his sou'wester and mac, a style much more fitting to Cornwall than New Mexico.
He was just a couple of dollars and at last I've found an occupant for the little chair we recycled a couple of years ago.
I don't think I would've called him Donald but that's his name on the label.
Donald MacAlpin, or rather Domnall mac AilpÃn in the Gaelic of the time (Modern Gaelic: Dòmhnall mac Ailpein), was a king of the Picts who reigned between 13th February 858 and 13th April 862. The brother of Kenneth MacAlpin, who according to the national myth was the first King of Scotland, he is known in most modern regal lists as Donald I.
The Chronicle of Melrose says of Donald, "…in war he was a vigorous soldier...." and while little is known about his military activity it is probable that he would have had to use some force to consolidate the MacAlpin’s dynasty as kings of the Pics. He is best known for overseeing the introduction of laws known as the laws of Aedh (or Aed). These included the law of tanistry, under which the successor of the king was elected during his lifetime from members of his family. This meant that brothers or cousins of the king could be next in line for succession rather than sons.
The events surrounding Donald’s death are uncertain. According to the Chronicle of Melrose he was murdered, but there are no other sources that support this. The location of his death is also unknown, either being at the palace of Cinnbelachoir, which is thought to have been near Scone, or at Rathinveralmond, the location of which is again unknown, but could in fact be the same place. He was buried on Iona.
Although Donald is generally supposed to have been childless, it has been suggested that Giric, who was king between 878 and 889, was his son. He was succeeded by Constantine, his nephew and son of Kenneth MacAlpine.

Donald the Muscovy duck has developed quite a bond with me. He responds to his name and will come to me when called. He goes through quite a ritual of bobbing his head up and down, hissing and making a grinding teeth like sound and unlike the other ducks doesn't mind being touched. I'm starting to think this is some sort of mating ritual...perhaps he sees me as an overgrown duck.
This shot was taken from the Royal Adelaide Show as well~ It has been quite a while I do not upload any B&W photo, so here it is~~ =)
Have a wonderful Thursday my dear friends!

One can easily recognize the different DOF of the small Kodak sensor and the MFT sensor of the Olympus.
Eared Grebe. A life bird for me. Oak Lake Manitoba. 6/8/2017.
One of my adult daughters saw this picture and she queried "Is this for real? Those birds look like Donald Trump!"
Similar looking in non-breeding plumage H0rned Grebe and Eared Grebe are much easier to tell apart in breeding attire. The ones that look like the Donald are the Eared Grebe, contrary to what his fiercest detractors might think.

I mean no disrespect to anyone but once I saw this image on my Mac I could only see a menacing Donald Duck in a party hat.

Il a vu s’enchaîner une crise sanitaire historique, une envolée du chômage et la résurgence des démons raciaux. Un printemps meurtrier au cours duquel il n’a rien fait pour apaiser une nation ébranlée. Gilles Paris
‪Donald avait envie de projeter une image d’homme plus viril que doux. Nous avons donc travaillé en ce sens au cours de la séance... ​‬
