This Red Shouldered Hawk was huge. I was walking along a path at Felts Audubon Preserve in Palmetto and he swooped down from a tree slightly behind me. He cleared my head by about 5-10 feet and then found his perch where I captured this emage.

Waiting but fully alert with muscles tensed and ready to run as soon as his master gives him permission. Beside the Round Pond ( now with fountain) in Christchurch Park, Ipswich. And yes, he soon was just a streak in the distance.

Our world-class engineers in the Communications System Control Centre (CSC) centre manage all access to the Eutelsat space segment.
Controlling and co-ordinating client's services, the engineers monitor transmissions both visually and via an automatic control system that continuously measures signal quality.
They are immediately alerted to any decline in service quality, allowing the problem to be swiftly diagnosed and the service restored.

This is the alert facility, or "mole hole," where bomber and tanker aircraft crew in the Strategic Air Command (SAC; USAF) lived while they were pulling alert duty during the Cold War. As I recall, crew members were typically on alert for 10 days of every month. They could go out of the facility to visit family, go to a movie or the BX, but the whole crew had to go everywhere together.
This one is at the old (now closed) SAC base near Blytheville, Arkansas. My family and I were stationed here from about 1964 until 1970. My father was a pilot in SAC throughout his career (bombers and tankers); he and the other bomber and tanker crews spent a whole lot of time, away from their families, living in this bunker.
The alert force aircraft remained parked just outside this facility (on a ramp, over to the left); there were armed airmen patrolling the ramp at all times. When the klaxon sounded, the aircrews scrambled to their aircraft, and got a radio code to start their engines; after the engines were running, they got another code that instructed them either to shut down, and go back to the alert facility (in which case it would be called a Coco alert), or to taxi (that would be a Bravo alert). On a Bravo alert, while taxiing the aircraft, the pilot was waiting (and hoping!) for another radio code that would tell him to turn around. If the alert force had not received that second "stand down" code, they would have taken off; and (as we saw it, back then) if that happened, very soon, we would have been in the midst of a nuclear war.
Here's a little blurb about the alert facilities themselves (aka "mole holes"): "The SAC alert crew quarters, like the SAC command post, were partially below ground structures. Of reinforced concrete and concrete-block construction, moleholes were of two-story height, with one story below ground. These windowless alert quarters were identical everywhere, with tunnel-like egress covered in corrugated steel. In selected cases, due to ground water table conditions, the moleholes were built fully aboveground, with the lower story earthen bermed for semi-hardening."
