In lovely condition despite having covered 132,000 miles. Very rare now.
Are these a badge engineered Mazda?
Just below the summit of Legges Tor, which rises above the central plateau of Ben Lomond, we come across some interesting equipment. The ski lift is obvious enough, but my title reflects a little confusion as to the origins of the solar panel on the right.
My first thought was a weather station, but that seems unlikely since we lack the means of measuring rainfall and wind speed (there's no anemometer). Is it an alien probe? My guess is that it in fact measures seismic activity and relays this information electronically.
Interestingly enough, this is the only place on the entire mountain that has mobile phone reception. So one would think that our phones can tap into whatever signal is being emitted from this "probe". Any suggestions warmly welcomed.

A kōlea probes the damp soil for earthworms. A Pacific golden plover patrols the Oahu shoreline and reestablishes his territory after a five-month summer breeding season in arctic Alaska. With his seasonal mating plumage fading this shorebird looks for food to replenish his body fat. The return trip traversed approximately 3,000 miles of open ocean requiring an exhaustive 3 to 4 days and nights of nonstop flight. Incredibly, some kōlea will continue their marathon semiannual migration to oceanic islands of the southern Pacific resulting in an annual round trip total of about 15,000 miles. Their fledglings set off from the tundra searching for an island and a suitable territory a month or two after the adults have departed. Many fledgling birds probably miss landfall and perish at sea. Survivors are superb navigators with territorial fidelity, using the stars and the earth’s magnetic field to find their way over the featureless ocean to the same small patch of land every year. Like most transoceanic migratory birds, they may use the earth’s magnetic field visually with the magnetoreception molecules of cryptochrome in their retina.
Black crowned Night Heron
"A heron can use a Probing
technique by quickly and repeatedly moving its bill into and out of the water or
substrate, in a method more typical of ibises. Probing is a non-visual, tactile foraging
technique. A more common behavior is Pecking. The heron merely picks up an item
from the substrate, often repeating the movement. The substrate may be the ground, a
plant, or surface of the water. A specialized method is Scooping used by the Boat Billed
Heron. By Scooping, the individual walks forward with its bill partially submerged,
thrusting forward and Scooping with each step.
Prey are caught in the bill either by Impale Capture or Grasp Capture. Impaling
means the bill tip goes into or through the prey. This occurs mostly on large and wide
prey, and mostly by herons with bills large enough to withstand the stress of impaling
and landing a larger prey item. Grasping is the more common capture method in which
prey are caught in a tweezers grip."

Inside a massive, closed warehouse. One could spend days wandering this cavernous space. After closing, this building was intentionally left to rot with the plans of demolition. Workers are slowly removing valuable equipment but there is a long journey ahead with the environmental cleanup of the entire property.
Very tidy example seen on the way home from a Saturday morning show and autojumble, making for a pleasing '90s scene with my Lexus.

Today I'm presenting you my newest creation,
the Viper Probe Droid.
The build didnt take long, but it was very fun building all the eyes and sensors.
Hope you guys like it:)
I look forward to hear critics or comments,

This Pacific golden plover has been probing the rain soaked ground for earthworms and insects. There is mud on its bill and head. But my favorite detail is the adorable eyelashes. (View large.)
Camouflaged for ground nesting, the Kolea (Pluvialis fulva) annually migrates from breeding grounds in Alaska and Siberia to tropical Pacific islands over thousands of miles of open ocean. After 3 to 4 days and nights of non-stop flying it arrives at the first landfall, Hawaii. A magnificent navigator, it uses the stars and the earth’s magnetic field to find the exact same location each year. This one winters in Hawaii. Some continue on into the southern hemisphere as far as New Zealand.
