This bush tit spent some time pulling at this small branch - never did figure out why, and it gave up eventually and flew on.

The pied bush chat (Saxicola caprata) is a small passerine bird found ranging from West Asia and Central Asia to the Indian subcontinent and Southeast Asia. About sixteen subspecies are recognized through its wide range with many island forms. It is a familiar bird of countryside and open scrub or grassland where it is found perched at the top of short thorn trees or other shrubs, looking out for insect prey. They pick up insects mainly from the ground, and were, like other chats, placed in the thrush family Turdidae, but are now considered as Old World flycatchers.
They nest in cavities in stone walls or in holes in an embankment, lining the nest with grass and animal hair. The males are black with white shoulder and vent patches whose extent varies among populations. Females are predominantly brownish while juveniles are speckled.
Within a short time the grasshopper has been decapitated. Comparing the size of its legs to those of its captor shows just what a big & impressive creature the bush cricket is.

The heaviest bird capable of flight is the kori bustard, Ardeotis kori.
These southern African birds can weigh up to 19 kilogrammes and have a wingspan of up to 2.75 metres.
While they can fly, these hefty birds spend most of their time on the ground foraging for food such as caterpillars, dung beetles and a variety of grasses and seeds.

Went to a local airshow to take some shots for a publication and website, These WW2 buffs are friends and co-workers and hopefully they like my work as I sort thru the shots.
This is a replica of George Bush Sr.'s TBF Avenger Torpedo plane that he flew in the South Pacific. I had no clue that he had been such a skilled and decorated pilot and this aircraft was amazing. I think I might be hooked on airshows now!
