Since I posted a pic of his mother yesterday (see prior post - she's amazing!) - I wanted to share one of my favorite pics of Royal Knight - he's 5 months old here and such a doll!! I was recently offered the opportunity to co-own him with his breeder/owner, unfortunately with this economy, I couldn't make that big of a commitment at this time - how sad am I --- I would have loved nothing more! I will continue to follow his accomplishments as I know he will be a wonderful show horse.
Note: Due to a series of unfortunate events in my personal life I had to take a week off from the project. So, I'm starting up where I left off.
Sara's husband just got back from his second year long deployment to Iraq with the National Gaurd. Before he left he decided that he wanted to get a tattoo of a wedding ring so that he wouldn't have to worry about wearing his real ring while in Iraq. Sara decided to get a ring tattoed also. They decided on a celtic knot because their wedding was Irish themed. Sara works with me at Point Defiance Zoo.
A series of images based on the concept of "Agony & Ecstasy" the purposeful pain an athlete will endure in order to succeed.
He’s in the water here, but failed to make the grab.
This is a sequence taken a bit later of the Green Heron that was on the old board floating in the water. Since the tides were extremely high he was not have much luck hunting. He jumped over to the riprap near the pier and was doing a bit of fishing for there. Once they commit to diving completely into the water, the photographer had better be prepared for some extremely quick moves as they spend very little time in the water. He did this about 4 or 5 times and had little success, but it never stopped him from trying. They will literally do anything to catch a fish.
I will just add that I only wish I could capture the moment of impact, but this is like trying to capture a snake strike as it happens so quickly.

Today, 13th August 2019, the Red Arrows performed a display at Ottawa-Gatineau airshow as part of the WEstern Hawk tour.
The Royal Air Force Aerobatic Team, The Red Arrows currently deployed on Exercise WESTERNHAWK 2019.
It is the first time the Red Arrows have been to North America since 2008 and the deployment will be the most ambitious tour of Canada and the United States ever undertaken by the team – going coast-to-coast. With stops across the continent, the tour comprises a combination of nearly 20 aerobatic displays, several iconic flypasts and 100 separate ground engagement activities – from business receptions to sessions aimed at inspiring young people.
Each show is a demonstration of creativity, engineering excellence and innovation – not just hallmarks of the Red Arrows and RAF but of the proven capabilities, strengths and skills of the UK.
The tour is an indication of the UK’s continuing commitment to enduring relationships, mutual prosperity and extensive security cooperation in the region. Moreover, the tour provides chance to celebrate and enhance international trade and investment between the UK, Canada and the US, worth more than £208 billion in 2018.
Speaking at the Royal International Air Tattoo (RIAT), Gloucestershire, Minister for the Armed Forces, Mark Lancaster, said: “The United Kingdom shares a deep and enduring defence relationship with both Canada and the US.
“Sending our world-famous RAF Red Arrows demonstrates the UK’s global ambitions and will provide a unique opportunity to strengthen our partnerships with two of our closest allies.”
Wing Commander Andrew Keith, Officer Commanding, Royal Air Force Aerobatic Team, said: “Tours by the Red Arrows have always been an important role of the team – aiming to demonstrate RAF expertise, helping to highlight UK excellence across a range of sectors and celebrating close connections with friends and allies.
“The men and women of the Red Arrows epitomise the skill, agility, teamwork and precision of the RAF and we are relishing the opportunity to travel overseas, display in front of hundreds of thousands of people and be ambassadors for a global Britain.
“A key aim of the tour is to inspire people through safe, dynamic and visually-exciting shows. However, we have also planned dozens of ground events, where we hope to meet countless individuals and showcase the importance of science, technology, engineering and maths – the STEM subjects – in our work.”
Officially known as the Royal Air Force Aerobatic Team, the Red Arrows showcase the excellence of the RAF and represent the United Kingdom both at home and overseas. The team consists of 11 pilots, nine of whom fly in the display, and more than 100 support personnel and technicians. Each of the pilots has previous fast-jet, operational experience flying the Tornado, Typhoon or Harrier, enabling the RAF to secure the skies and protect the nation and its interests, 365-days a year. One of the world’s premier aerobatic teams, the Red Arrows had completed nearly 5,000 displays, in 57 countries, by the beginning of 2019. Flying Hawk T1 jets, the team is based at RAF Scampton in Lincolnshire.
On 29 September 2020, David Shearer, the UN’s top envoy in South Sudan said that tangible progress in the peace process across South Sudan is a crucial issue, while speaking at a press conference held at the UNMISS headquarters, Juba.
Other key issues that SRSG Shearer briefed on included unhindered access for the UN peacekeeping operation to conflict hotspots, economic stability for the South Sudanese as well as the ongoing re-designation of UN Protection Sites into more conventional camps for the internally displaced.

...I find among the best performers across virtually every field is a single-minded passion for what they do, an unwavering desire for excellence in the way they think and the way they work. Genuine confidence is what launches you out of bed in the morning, and through your day with a spring in your step."

Ward underscores America’s commitment to advance security, stability and peace in Africa
By Army Sgt. Wayne Woolley
WASHINGTON, D.C. – Gen. William E. “Kip” Ward, commander of U.S. Africa Command, on Wednesday told a gathering of senior military leaders from 32 nations across the African continent that America is committed to forming and maintaining partnerships that advance security, stability and peace in Africa.
“We want to listen, we want to learn from your perspectives and we want to be a partner in collaborating to address the challenges you face,” Ward said. “You are our partners and I respect all of you.”
The senior African military leaders gathered for the inaugural African Land Forces Summit for five days of discussions about ways they can form stronger relationships among themselves and with the United States to protect borders, fight extremist groups and collaborate on humanitarian assistance and peace keeping missions.
The summit is sponsored by U.S. Army Africa, which was created last year as a service component command under USAFRICOM.
“We intend for this first African Land Forces Summit to be just the beginning of many more to come where we can gather on a regular basis to share ideas,” Ward said. “We want to ensure the programs and activities we conduct on the continent of Africa are helpful in building your military capacity in ways that support your regional and national interest.”
The best way for the United States military to do that, Ward said, is to listen and respond to the concerns of African military leaders.
“You have seen over the past few years how we do business. Not dictating to you. Not directing you,” Ward said. “But listening to you and then doing our best to do those things you have asked us to do. What you say matters. I hope this summit is proving that to you.”
