A total throwaway character in Aliens Vs. Predator, I think the Elder Predator is a really, really cool character. This is a three-inch-tall Japanese figure, by the way, not the good-looking McFarlane one. Though for what it is, it's all right.

I caught this Nuthatch just as it had landed and although not very good focus I had to put it up as it struck me funny how much it reminded me of the Alien from the Predator movie, he was a bit of a bully with the other birds too ò¿ò

One of those super rare and weird looking creatures from our Rain Forest, Hawk moth larvae who mimics when disturb the shape of a viper snake for its own protection against natural predators.
Special thanks to the nature guides from Selva Verde and la Selva, friends that always help me finding spectacular objects for me and my clients to photograph.
The Predator is our newly designed rig for the Canon C100 that offers three points of contact with one being our Grip Relocator. The Grip Relocator positions Canon’s grip on the C100, C300 to the Zacuto handgrip to easily control the camera without removing your hand from the rig. With this rig, we recommend using a Z-Finder, optical viewfinder, for the C100 camera. Coming soon!

History of the MQ-1B "Predator"
The MQ-1 "Predator" is a medium-altitude, long-endurance unmanned aerial system (UAS) that was employed primarily to collect intelligence and secondarily to engage enemy targets. Beginning its service with the Army in 1995 and later used by the U.S. Air Force, the MQ-1 was deployed in every major U.S. conflict during this period until its retirement in 2018. The MQ-1's capabilities made it uniquely qualified to conduct irregular warfare operations.
The Predator was part of a remotely piloted aircraft system. A fully operational system consisted of four aircraft, ground control station, Predator Primary Satellite Link, and spare equipment, along with operations and maintenance crews for deployed 24-hour missions. A Predator crew consisted of a pilot to control the aircraft and command the mission, an aircrew member to operate sensors and weapons, and a mission coordinator, when required.
The Predator and Hill Air Force Base
In 2004, the U.S. Air Force used the Utah Test and Training Range (UTTR) to assess the Predator's ability to strike a moving target with munitions. Crew members guided the drone remotely from Indian Springs, Nevada, and struck two moving tanks with Hellfire missiles. Because of this testing, the Predator was later used in combat to engage enemy targets. The Ogden Air Logistics Complex at Hill also provided software development and sustainment in support of the MQ-1 when in active service. Extensive UAS activities continue today on the UTTR with several different services and platforms.
The MQ-18 on display first flew on 31 January 2005, and was later assigned to Indian Springs Auxiliary Field, Nevada. During its service life, this Predator took part in combat sorties in Iraq, Kuwait, and Afghanistan. After flying 28,069 hours and over 1,600 combat sorties, it retired from service in 2017 and was delivered to the Hill Aerospace Museum for display in 2020.

I swapped the arms to give him better muscular anatomy. The biceps and triceps looked all wonky since the arms where on backwards.
Años y años que llevo tras esta pieza ... al final el sueño se hizo realidad.
Junto con mi busto 1:1 de Predator, mi 2º pieza favorita ( ¿o la 1ª? )
I could hear the wading birds squawking and fussing - then I found out why - Mr Osprey was overhead!
Tiger Crane Fly (Nephrotoma wulpiana)

This crane fly is partly translucent, and the light shining through it gives it this golden glow. This attractive and harmless insect was not safe though - its was about to be attacked.
