Kestrel - Falco tinnunculus (M)
(Double click)
The common kestrel (Falco tinnunculus) is a bird of prey species belonging to the kestrel group of the falcon family Falconidae. It is also known as the European kestrel, Eurasian kestrel, or Old World kestrel. In Britain, where no other kestrel species occurs, it is generally just called "the kestrel".
This species occurs over a large range. It is widespread in Europe, Asia, and Africa, as well as occasionally reaching the east coast of North America.
Kestrels can hover in still air, even indoors in barns. Because they face towards any slight wind when hovering, the common kestrel is called a "windhover" in some areas.
Unusual for falcons, plumage often differs between male and female, although as is usual with monogamous raptors the female is slightly larger than the male. This allows a pair to fill different feeding niches over their home range. Kestrels are bold and have adapted well to human encroachment, nesting in buildings and hunting by major roads. Kestrels do not build their own nests, but use nests built by other species.
Their plumage is mainly light chestnut brown with blackish spots on the upperside and buff with narrow blackish streaks on the underside; the remiges are also blackish. Unlike most raptors, they display sexual colour dimorphism with the male having fewer black spots and streaks, as well as a blue-grey cap and tail. The tail is brown with black bars in females, and has a black tip with a narrow white rim in both sexes. All common kestrels have a prominent black malar stripe like their closest relatives.
The cere, feet, and a narrow ring around the eye are bright yellow; the toenails, bill and iris are dark. Juveniles look like adult females, but the underside streaks are wider; the yellow of their bare parts is paler. Hatchlings are covered in white down feathers, changing to a buff-grey second down coat before they grow their first true plumage.
Data from Britain shows nesting pairs bringing up about 2–3 chicks on average, though this includes a considerable rate of total brood failures; actually, few pairs that do manage to fledge offspring raise less than 3 or 4. Compared to their siblings, first-hatched chicks have greater survival and recruitment probability, thought to be due to the first-hatched chicks obtaining a higher body condition when in the nest. Population cycles of prey, particularly voles, have a considerable influence on breeding success. Most common kestrels die before they reach 2 years of age; mortality up until the first birthday may be as high as 70%. At least females generally breed at one year of age; possibly, some males take a year longer to maturity as they do in related species. The biological lifespan to death from senescence can be 16 years or more, however; one was recorded to have lived almost 24 years.

From the bullhorn advertisement: "Ladies and gentlemen, today marks the seven-year anniversary of the Iraq War. Over 100,000 civilians have been killed in this war. Over 5,000 United States troops have been killed in this war. So what if there were no WMDs? So what if al-Qaeda had no connection Saddam? It's still worth being over there! The war is not over yet and our government needs your child for sacrifice today. And if you join today, you'll receive these great benefits: Free college! Adventure of a lifetime! Job security! These are fantastic benefits, and all of them can be found at the military recruiting station behind us. However, I am required to note that as great as these benefits are, they do not apply to the dead." www.ivaw.org/

Are you light on your toes, ready to zip through the forest and take enemies by surprise? Are you smart and whimsical, creative and clever? Do you have what it takes to ride a Unicorn Bomber, tackle the difficulties of communicating in Faery-speech (fairies only talk in words of one syllable, in case you didn't know, and they capitalize everything that seems important), or flit through the undergrowth helping wounded Faeries while wearing a pink tutu?

A participant in the Texas Fort Muster poses during the 2019 event in the Stockyards in Fort Worth, Texas. The Texas Forts Muster celebration was created in 2001 to celebrate the heritage of Texas’ Frontier fort settlements, like Fort Worth. The Muster brings together authentic wagons, flags, music, colorful uniforms and military gear from several Texas frontier landmarks, as well as, reenactors, musicians and other folks interested in Texas’ frontier history. The period of time covered by the celebration was the Texas frontier from the days of the early Republic in 1836, through the settlements on the frontier to the closing of the frontier by the late 1890s. I had a great time talking to reenactors and taking photos at the event.

Prompt: create an ultra-realistic digital fine art painting that preserves all existing subjects, proportions, wardrobe, snow, forest setting, soft diffused winter lighting, and the calm interaction between Santa Claus in a red coat and the young deer. Maintain the same composition, eye-level angle, soft snowfall, misty atmospheric depth, and muted cool-tone palette. Enhance overall detail, texture, and realism while keeping likeness, clothing, environment, and framing unchanged. Render with refined brush-stroke texture, crisp micro-details on fur, fabric, and snow crystals, and natural light falloff matching the Base. Avoid adding or removing any elements, props, people, text, or logos.

Document: Nursing recruitment poster from 1964-1973 (INF 13/238 (18))
Description:
This poster from 1964-1973 encourages viewers with the catchy tagline: 'People remember Nurses'. Since the 1930s, demand for nurses has grown steadily, especially after the creation of the NHS in 1948. What kind of recruitment tactics does this poster use?
Our newest online lesson explores the recruitment and role of African nurses in the British health services: www.nationalarchives.gov.uk/education/resources/african-n...
After the Second World War, African citizens from Nigeria and the Gold Coast (Ghana) and West Indian citizens as part of the Windrush Caribbean migration came to Britain to assist with the growing staffing crisis across the healthcare professions. This came a time when immigration laws were becoming increasing stricter in the 1960s and 1970s. What does this poster suggest about the recruitment of nurses?
