This pack leader stands on guard for a threats that might harm the colony. The most important role a Meerkat plays is that of sentry, watch guard. The Meerkat depends on group cooperation to survive their environment. Many groups have 20-50 extended family members in large underground tunnels. One meerkat will stand on its hind legs, propped up by its tail, and act as a lookout while the rest of the mob is outside looking for food and frolicking in the sun. The lookout scans the area for predators, including hawks, eagles, snakes and jackals. If a predator is spotted, the guard lets out a distinctive bark. At the sound of the warning bark, everyone sprints to the nearest tunnel entrance.

 

The imposing crimson-robed Akazonae Royal Guards are next to join the Samurai General’s side in this Japanese feudal take on the Star Wars legacy.

 

The Akazonae Royal Guards come wielding not only the iconic force pike-esque staff, but traditional Japanese-style katanas and long bow as well.

The guards marching at Buckingham Palace

In der Rassebeschreibung von Havanesern steht immer, dass sie leicht zu Wachhunden zu erziehen sind. Zumindest sieht es so aus wie wenn er meinen Fotorucksack bewachen würde.

Welcome to the world of Mouse Guard, the graphic novel, comic and role playing game by David Petersen. These great stories follow the adventures of Lieam, Saxon and Kenzie. Three of the Guards finest guards mice. Their duty is to act as guides and guardians to the common mice living in all the out lying villages. They face many dangers in their adventures and never back down when challenged by a predator.

This Lego model was inspired by the book "Fall" and took 6 weeks to complete. It was debuted at Brickcon 2014 in Seattle where it won the "Best Art" and "Best in Show" awards. Seattle's ArchLUG will be presenting more classic Mouse Guard LEGO creations in 2015 at Emerald City ComicCon.

Came over this friendly dog in the outskirts of Tbilisi while exploring old buildings.

This guard tower stands at the southeast corner of the old Territorial/State Prison in Deer Lodge, Montana. In 1867 the US Congress authorized monies for express purpose of building a prison in the newly formed, but largely lawless Montana Territory. The territorial government chose the ranch town of Deer Lodge for the prison. Construction started in 1870 on what was planed as a 3 tiered structure with fourteen cells per tier. But due to lack of material and high construction costs only one tier was originally built. The prison opened on July 2, 1871, when US Marshal William Wheeler took possession of the first nine prisoners. Finally in 1885 monies were appropriated in order to built a three story cellblock with 42 double-occupancy cells which opened in 1886. The Montana Territorial Prison was finally completed to original specifications, just in time to be handed over to the new State of Montana in March 1890. The prison remained open until 1979 when a new state prison was constructed outside of Deer Lodge.

 

Some say the old prison is haunted. Visitors report strange sounds and the sensation of being touched by invisible beings. Some say “Turkey Pete” Either still haunts cell number 1. Eitner spent 49 years incarcerated at the prison for murder before dying of natural causes in 1967. Some think the spirits of 2 inmates, who organized and died in the 1959 riot, still haunt the halls of the prison.

 

The prison was added to The Register of National Historic Places on September 3, 1976. Today the prison operates as part of a Museum complex in Deer Lodge. We didn’t tour the interior of the prison on this trip.

Abandoned Coast Guard Station

Cleveland, Ohio

The Royal Guards (Swedish: Högvakten) is the King of Sweden's cavalry and infantry guards of honour of the Swedish Armed Forces, tasked with the protection of the Swedish royal family. The Royal Guard is normally divided in two parts, the main guard stationed at the Stockholm Palace, and a smaller detachment at Drottningholm Palace. The Royal Guards units has continuously guarded the Swedish royal family in Stockholm since 1523.

 

Between April and August, the mounted squadrons in light blue full dress uniforms and silver pickelhaube helmets and the companies in dark blue full dress uniforms with black pickelhaube helmets, both of the Life Guards, can be seen in Stockholm street parades and around the Royal Palace.

Taken on my recent trip to Norfolk between Boxing day and New Years Eve. Mundesley beach is one of my favourite beaches in Norfolk to photograph. It has a multitude of contrasting surfaces and angles to work with and in this shot i think i got them all.

The largest structure on the administrative site is the guard station building. It even has a basement. It’s ready to go as a working guard station when the forest service needs it. Sometimes it has a volunteer acting as a caretaker. But we never saw anybody during our five day visit.

Our Daily Challenge - Makes you smile

 

The Masked Lapwing is sometimes referred to as the Spur-winged Plover because each of its wings is armed with a yellow spur at the ‘elbow’ (or carpal joint)... Lapwings use these spurs when diving at potential predators or intruders during breeding season, while chicks are running around or when the eggs are just about to hatch. While these attacks are quite unnerving, the birds seldom actually strike their ‘victims’, preferring a close approach to scare them away.

As the tea salon came to a close and Knyaginya Dashkova retired to her private apartments to inspect her son's history lesson, "Count Shurshin" revealed himself to be some sort of rebel, now threatening the safety of both court and the Empress personally, shouting nonsense about Polish invasion, all whilst taking as many refreshments as possible!

 

Vitze-Kantzler was quick to call in guards, and the young Alexandra von Engelhardt under Grenadiers' protection was swiftly escorted out of the salon. The intruder was arrested and will await strict "investigation" soon.
