A man's interest in a single bluebird is worth more than a complete but dry list of the fauna and flora of a town.

Blue Jays in the tree outside my living room window this morning. Shooting between the blinds and thru a window didn't help. There were two of them - but I never got both to sit still at the same time, thus "A Single Bluebird".

A beach tractor at Cromer in Norfolk UK. The title comes from the glove that is being used as a cover for something. To me it looks like the hand is going to drive the tractor.

The Antonov An-2 (Russian nickname: "Annushka" or "Annie" is a Soviet mass-produced single-engine biplane utility/agricultural aircraft designed and manufactured by the Antonov Design Bureau beginning in 1946.
In many ways I bet you this old plane design could replace the new modern Cessna Caravan plane that is used widely in the world today as a utility transportation plane. Might not be as fast as the Cessna Caravan but it could certainly land in areas where the other plane couldn't even think about landing and taking off. This old plane would probably carry more cargo in poundage. And add to the fact that is relatively inexpensive around $30,000 and up compared to the caravan that is probably over 1 million bucks this old design might have a lot going for it.
The An-2 is used as a light utility transport, parachute drop aircraft, agricultural work and many other tasks suited to this large slow-flying biplane. Its slow flight and good short field performance make it suited for short, unimproved fields, and some specialized variants have also been built for cold weather and other extreme environments. The Guinness Book of World Records states that the 45-year production run for the An-2 was for a time the longest ever for any aircraft
I talk to the owner who is restoring this old Russian Plane. He states it can land at about 35 miles per hour! Looking at "all" the manual flaps on this bird I can probably believe it. Looking inside it looks like a troop transporter as well design to land in rough areas.

I heard later it was sold to people down in Mexico.
