Anyone know what year. It looks like a 47 or 48 to me.
A mother tigress and her cub walk away into the jungles of India. We saw this mama tiger and her three cubs one early morning. It was difficult getting of picture of them as they crossed the road and walked into the Indian jungle. We did see them again later that day and had the sighting all to ourselves :-).
A mother cheetah and her young cubs rest under the shade of a tree. This photo was taken in the Masai Mara in Kenya.

January 31 is International Zebra Day! Celebrate by sharing some fun facts about zebras with your friends and family.
A zebra’s stripe patterns are unique to each individual, just like a human fingerprint.
Animal experts believe the disorienting pattern of the stripes deter biting flies from zeroing in on zebras. Flies navigate by perceiving the light reflecting off of surfaces, and they prefer to land on solid dark surfaces. They will typically avoid zebras altogether.
Even at birth, a foal’s legs are already almost as long as those of an adult. Within 20 minutes of birth, the zebra is on the run and uses this amazing ability as its primary method to evade predators.
The hind legs of zebra can deliver powerful kicks to break the jaw of a predator, like a lion, and they can even run at top speeds of almost 40 miles per hour.
This lovely herd of Plains zebra (Equus quagga), was photographed during a photography safari on a late evening game drive in a downpour around Lake Nakuru National Park, Kenya.

One of my projects. Needs some work.
The International 184 tractor was built by International Harvester in the USA from 1977-1980. It features a 18 hp (13 kW) IH engine.

Perhaps nearly thirty years ago in the middle of winter, we had to travel from southern California to Chicago in order to sort through my uncle’s belongings after his passing. A lifelong bachelor, there was no one other than us to do that. We went through everything, leaving nothing unexamined.
My uncle worked for and retired from Stewart Warner Electronics as an electronics technician. One of the artifacts we found in his apartment was a membership card for IBEW, the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers.
The photo above shows three retired trucks, all Internationals, all workhorses in their day. I suppose that in a way, the three trucks shown form another kind of IBEW, the International Brotherhood of Erstwhile Workhorses! (Haha! Just joking!)
According to the U.S. Embassy to China, the country will be building 108 new airports between 2004 and 2009 -- including what will be the world's largest: the Beijing International Airport, designed by Foster & Partners. Set to open at the end of 2007, in time for the Beijing Olympics in 2008, the airport terminal will cover more than 1 million square meters, giving it a bigger footprint than the Pentagon.
It's designed to handle 43 million passengers a year initially and 55 million by 2015, figures that will probably push the new facility into the ranks of the top 10 busiest airports, going by the 2004 numbers from the Airports Council International. Given the scale and traffic, Foster & Partners focused on the traveler's experience, making sure that walking distances are short, for instance.
Building on Foster's experience designing Hong Kong 's new mega-airport, the massive Chek Lap Kok, the sprawling Beijing terminal is housed under a single roof. To help passengers distinguish between different sections of the vast space, skylights cast different shades of yellow and red light across walls -- a subtle but innovative navigational aid. The architects also kept sustainability in mind: An environmental-control system reduces carbon emissions, and skylights situated on a south-east axis lessen solar heat, keeping the building cool.
Oleg lies on the sofa for his afternoon nap ....
