The Grumman E-2 Hawkeye is an American all-weather, aircraft carrier-based tactical Airborne Early Warning (AEW) aircraft. The twin turboprop aircraft was designed and developed in the 1950s by Grumman for the United States Navy as a replacement for the E-1 Tracer. The United States Navy aircraft has been progressively updated with the latest variant, the E-2D, first flying in 2007. Small numbers are also operated by other countries, the largest foreign operator is Japan.
The aircraft was nicknamed Super Fudd because it replaced Willy Fudd (the E-1 Tracer). In the present day, it is most commonly nicknamed the Hummer due to the distinctive sound of its twin turboprop engines.

Not the best shot in the world, but I figured that I should present one of the rare looks I get at our 'resident' Cooper's. He hunts our yard fairly frequently, although I've rarely seen him get anything (unlike the red-tail who has taken out at least a half-dozen pigeons and a squirrel that I know of).
Not sharp at all, but I like the weird moire-like effect the tangle of branches created around him/her.
Another of The Avengers in non-TLG form, this time it's the man with sharp eyes - but shaper arrows!

Kodak Brownie Hawkeye
620 film camera
Produced 1950-1961
Purchased for $8 from Gordan's Antiques in Asheboro, NC (EV info sticker added by me).
Great cheap simple little Holga/Lomo alternative.
EV13:
~f/16 ~1/30s
I run 120 film through this guy simply by trimming the edges of plastic 120 spools with finger-nail clippers and a nail file (being careful to avoid light leaks) and feeding it into the original metal 620 spool.
This is currently my best seller. It is a 1x1" square glass tile pendant featuring my fine art print of my Brownie Hawkeye. Perfect for the vintage camera lover! Available in my shop.
Bought the Brownie Hawkeye online a while ago but had no time to play around with it. Cleaned it inside out today, just need to get a 120 film converter and some film.

Kodak Hawkeye Flashfun camera is a cute little thing, very similar to the Brownie Starflash I use to have as a kid. I would love to try some film through it one day. I read somewhere that it was a promotional camera, and not for retail sale, it was manufactured from 1961 to 1967, picture size was 4 x 4 cm, 12 exposure.
The University of Iowa baseball team has had a good season, with a 39-16 record and nationally ranked. We were in Minneapolis and caught one of their games in the Big Ten tournament, which unfortunately wasn't so good as they lost to Indiana 10-2.
Parked in Nashotah Siding on Thursday, these two cars provided some excitement in an otherwise dull DFW with NS power parked in the usual spot at Nashotah West. Not too often that you see two passenger cars in the middle of a freight train.....
The Hawkeye Valley Mill was listed on January 23, 2013 in the National Register of Historic Places for its significance to the history of agriculture in South Dakota. It is located south of Wessington Springs, in the Hawkeye Valley of the Wessington Hills. Elwood C. Lyle built the mill in 1894, a period of economic downturn and drought, after having homesteaded that quarter-section in 1889. The structure is a good surviving example of “power” windmills, once relatively common across the Great Plains, that could perform tasks like shelling corn, grinding feed, and operating small machines for the owner’s and neighbors’ farming operations farms.
