A rear advert on Dart 62 for highlandwear styling at its best and I wouldn't
mind going to the George Hotel for champagne cocktails with these two and
their inviting eyes!
It's absolutely super isn't it and surely one of the most eye catching bus advertisements around. So very French. Tres sexy pour moi...e vous?

The Dennis Dart in MTR Bus Department are very special. It is because they all have a Northern Counties bodies. In Hong Kong, only a few buses have a Northern Counties bodies.
Poor photography but interesting behaviour ? Male and female darter getting in some late egg-laying - bobbing about the pond as they do - when suddenly a rival male flew into the attack. The female held by male #1 was up-ended and thrown across the water while the 2 males had a real set-to. It's a tough world out there.
broad scarlet, common scarlet-darter, scarlet darter and scarlet dragonfly, Crocothermis erythraea, Vuurlibel
Distinctive Australian fishing bird, drying its wings on the river bank.
The plumage is sparse and easily becomes wet, so they must dry their wings conspicuously.
Other names: Diver, Needle-beak Shag, Snake-bird
Anhinga melanogaster
The GL-Scout Darts main function is to spot and target enemy forces but also has a powerful cloaking field that can even hide other frames around it
The color on these frogs is to warn predators away and let them know that they are toxic. it is thought that they are poisonous because of the incests that the eat. these frog tend to live in the rainforest in trees as well as under leaves, logs, and rocks on the forest floor.
The 8501 / 8601 Class were built by Tokyu Car Corporation in Japan in 2000. They are formed into 4 car sets with the following formation:
8601 (DTS) + 8501 (DMS) + 8502 (DMS) + 8602 (DTS).
Four, 4 car sets were initially built with a further three, 4 car sets arriving in 2002. They often worked in multiple with the 8201 / 8401 Class.
DART 8616 is from the second batch of units, which arrived in 2002.
The original Dodge Dart (1960) was also odd-looking, especially in its grille and front bumper arrangement. Overall effect, however, was reasonably pleasing------something I can't honestly say about this '61. The 1961 POLARA, too, came off more successfully, in terms of styling, than the cheaper Dart, by virtue of its better-integrated and more eyecatching taillight-in-a-fin theme.
LHB DART unit 8133 leads a 4 car set around Killiney Hill and past White Rock with the 16:10 Bray – Malahide.
Poison dart frog (also known as dart-poison frog, poison frog or formerly known as poison arrow frog) is the common name of a group of frogs in the family Dendrobatidae which are native to Central and South America. These species are diurnal and often have brightly colored bodies. Although all wild dendrobatids are at least somewhat toxic, levels of toxicity vary considerably from one species to the next and from one population to another. Many species are threatened. These amphibians are often called "dart frogs" due to the Amerindians' indigenous use of their toxic secretions to poison the tips of blowdarts. However, of over 175 species, only four have been documented as being used for this purpose (curare plants are more commonly used), all of which come from the Phyllobates genus, which is characterized by the relatively large size and high levels of toxicity of its members.

The yellow-winged darter, Sympetrum flaveolum, is a dragonfly found in Europe and mid and Northern China. Breeding is confined to stagnant water, usually in peat bogs. Although not resident in the United Kingdom it occasionally migrates there in some numbers. Such 'Invasion Years' occurred in 1906, 1926, 1945, 1953, and 1995. On each occasion a small breeding colony appeared, but they have invariably died out after a few years.
An almost unmistakable darter, red-bodied in the male, with both sexes having large amounts of saffron-yellow colouration to the basal area of each wing, which is particularly noticeable on the hind-wings. Other Sympetrum species may have limited yellow-orange colouration near the extreme wing-bases, especially in females, but never so extensively as in this species.
Sites which are likely to attract this species have thick rushy margins. The yellow-winged darter tends to make quite short flights when settled at a site, and frequently perches quite low down on vegetation.
A better shot of the bird on the mirror. I'll call it Chewie since it has a tag that sez 'dog toy' on its butt.
