Not quite what is seems. These two Wrights Handybus Darts were actually members of Dart, Paisley's fleet, not Stagecoach Glasgow. These vehicles had the flat, single piece windscreen rather than the London-spec split / raked screen. Stagecoach Glasgow had franchised certain routes to Dart, who operated them with vehicles in the original candy-stripe livery.

The Cobham Bus Museum Spring Gathering in April 1991 took place in Addlestone. Entries included Centrewest Dennis Dart / Wright Handybus B26F DW43 JDZ2343 complete with Gold Arrow branding.

Ruddy Darter...male - Sympetrum sanguineum

Twenty brand new Alexander 'Dash' bodied Dennis Dart 9.8SDL were delivered to Hastings Buses between December 1991 and March 1992. This influx of vehicles enabled the mass withdrawal of mark 1 Leyland Nationals. Seen here in Hastings on June 22nd 1994 is 503 (J503 GCD).

Territorial fight between Darters

An Australasian Darter in Silhouette, the shot was taken as the sun went down at Yerrabi pond in Canberra. I positioned myself as close as I could with the suns reflection in the water behind the subject.

 

The darter was being a good poser, which gave me time to be in the right place with the camera. Date taken: 14/6/2010. Also see this image at www.denishawkins.id.au

Another shot of the pair of USAF Convair F-106A Delta Darts from the 119th FS New Jersey Air National Guard making a gear-down fly-by at the McGuire AFB Open House on the 16th August 1987.

 

These two were 57-0240 with 59-0034. Sister ship 59-0049 was parked in the static arena that day. (see below)

 

One of the 'Century' series of fighters, F-106's were used by the USAF as part of NORAD as interceptors, eventually passing to the Air Guard units before eventual retirement to AMARC or more likely converted as unmanned QF-106 aerial drone targets ending their days in a flash and a bang!

It was a hot day at a pond on the Ohlsdorf cemetary, almost no dragonflies in sight and I was about to leave when this ruddy darter (Sympetrum sanguineum, Blutrote Heidelibelle) crossed my path.

Black darter...Sympetrum danae. immature male. Crowle Moor Nature Reserve, Lincolnshire, England. This specimen seems to have a little dent on one of its lower abdominal segments, never observed this in a Dragonfly before, possible brief encounter with a birds bill?

A southbound DART heads along the coastal stretch between Dublin and Dun Laoghaire.

 

The Martello tower in the background was one of 28 built to protect the Dublin area coastline in 1804 and part of a defense network of almost 50 constructed around Ireland, and many hundreds throughout the British Empire.

 

With extremely thick walls that could withstand many days of cannonball attack, a large gun on top and two above-ground levels accessible by a door partway up one side (via a ladder that could be removed by the occupants), they were superb defensive forts until rifled artillery was developed.

DART 8140 arrives into the recently opened Grand Canal Dock Station, with the impressive Aviva Stadium in the rear of the photo.

What a revelation this electric sets were when introduced on Dublin's commuter belt, replacing clapped out diesel carraiges.

8140 is one of the original 8100 class, built by GEC and Linke-Hofmann-Busch & later upgraded by Siemens.

Amongst the large gum trees on one of our local creeks the Darters appear to have bred well this season. From one vantage point I counted 4 nests. This being the closest and most visible. Here Mum is having a rest in the light rain whilst the chicks look on....patiently awaiting some activity that may signal a feed.

 

Darter "Anhinga melanogaster."

Also known as.....Diver, Needle-beak Shag or Snake bird.

The Darter is a fishing bird related to cormorants with a stiletto like bill and snake like neck. They swim underwater and often impale small fish etc with a sudden thrust forward of their neck and open bill.

On the surface, Darters swim with their body submerged and only their neck and head visible, hence the name "snake-bird."

  

Common Darter - Kendal Park, Hullbridge, Essex. Hopefully making use of the new pond for future generations!

Part 3 of my “models from 2021” posting. This year my models had be invited to attend the Strathtay Scottish running day held by Angus Transport Group and Dundee Museum of Transport. The three models pictured here were completed in time to be featured on my Forfar Prior Road diorama during the event. Pictured are a Leyland Tiger, East Lancs Myllenium Hyline rebody, an East Lancs Spryte Dart and a Leyland Leopard Alexander Y Type in the modern livery - the only time a Strathtay y type wore this livery was in promotional artwork, and now with this model. Finally, I added to my Travel Dundee fleet with this code 3 Dart Pointer, finished with Sunrise transfers.
