Having no surviving son, the baronetcy passed to a cousin Thomas Spencer of Eardington and has since become extinct.
The heirs to the estate were his 4 daughters Jane, Elizabeth, Constance and Katherine. Jane died in 1686,and her share of the property appears to have been separated from her sisters' and became the property of the Swetes, the remaining three-fourths were bought by Sir Robert Dashwood in 1695 for £31,000.

I guess this sign says it all. A streetcar ran along the Seattle Waterfront long ago. It was revived in the 1980s and ran again for over 20 years. It stopped service at the end of 2005, a year after its visionary and champion died and plans to address damage from the Nisqually earthquake to the adjacent viaduct developed. I don't know if there are plans for incorporating the streetcar into the new waterfront plan once the Alaskan Way Viaduct is removed and a new traffic corridor is reestablished, sometime around 2018. Right now the #99 bus line has replaced the streetcar route. Meanwhile, the old streetcars are covered in shrink wrap and stored out of sight and their route signs are wrapped in vines.

'Endangered and Extinct' by creative recycling artist Val Hunt, an exhibition at Gloucester Cathedral, Saturday 26 September-Sunday 1 November 2020 in the Cloisters
From the Cathedral's website:
"This exhibition presents a subtle message about recycling and preservation, raising awareness of why the creatures on show are endangered or extinct...
Having worked for the past 29 years as a professional maker, Val Hunt continues to be amazed at the versatility of creative recycling. There is an enormous variety of discarded material just waiting to be reconstructed and given a new identity, especially Val's favourite material of drinks can metal. Intricate constructions and interesting textures are key elements found in her work, humour is also an added ingredient whenever possible.
Through experimentation, ingenuity and skill her work is always changing as she discovers new techniques and ways of constructing recycled materials to signal a new meaning. Her works recycles a diverse selection of throwaway material, from these she creates a fascinating selection of large and small sculptural pieces which are both appealing and informative.
Despite her use of manufactured materials, her main inspiration comes from the natural world. Val has a special interest in endangered and extinct species and most of her work reflects this. She makes animals, exotic birds, dinosaurs, insects and species of flora all on the edge or now extinct.
The increasing awareness of the effects of pollution, climate change, plastic in the Ocean and environment destruction on the habitat have influenced Val's work. She now dedicates her making to highlighting the plight of species that are on the edge or gone forever in her touring educational exhibition 'Endangered and Extinct'...
Val's work has been shown in exhibitions around the UK, Denmark, Japan, United Emirates, USA and toured overseas with the British Council. She has work in many permanent collections."

Still considered extinct in the wild, the Scimitar Oryx exists only in captivity nowadays. However, it breeds well in captivity, and reintroduction plans for this large antelope species is well underway in places like Morroco, Tunisia and Senegal. This animal was seen in the Paris Zoological Park, in Paris, France.
Good Morning All, I hope everyone is enjoying the weekends. Last night I went to Taronga Zoo with my friends to attend the Zoofari Ball 2014, a fund-raising event to raise money to save Sumatran Tigers.
Those who don’t know about Sumatran tigers, they are a rare tiger subspecies that inhabits the Indonesian island of Sumatra. Because of heavy deforestation and poaching this beautiful creatures are closer to being extinct. If this continues this noble creature could end up like its extinct Javan and Balinese relatives. There are only 400 of them left in the wild and their population is dwindling rapidly. But despite increased efforts in tiger conservation including law enforcement and anti poaching activities the market for Sumatran tigers are high in Sumatra and rest of Asia. Zoos around have joined the battle to prevent this creature from extinction, but the prospect of losing the last of the world’s wild tigers within the next five years continues to loom.
The event was a huge success. I don’t know how much they raised as they still didn’t posted any info on their website. Most of the fund raised will be spend on breeding programs, research and other activities. This photo was taken at Taronga Zoo just before the event. This guy was already sleeping when I visited his cage. I guess he had his dinner early. I had to knock on the glass to get him to look the camera. Excuse about the quality. This is the only image I got him to look at the camera. I got really excited that I didn’t look for focussing properly. Feel free to share the photo. Enjoy the weekend.

I am waiting for the right moment (and some info on developing the Perutz) before I bring them out for a shot…
