Sunrise from Double Head.
That bird sat there for about 2 minutes. The wind was blowing a gale and he didnt have to move. I actually was able to get about 5 shots off before he left.
Not a very impressive sunrise but it will do.

I needed to extend the forward wing root fairings to allow for mounting screws that would also go through the forward end of the aft fairing. The fairings I have are the polyester/gel coat fairings supplied by Van's. I hope they have gone to epoxy layups on all of the newer kits. I almost threw these away, as it was probably just as much work to build epoxy fairings from scratch. Time will tell as to how they will hold up.

So this was good and huge but I don't think I will make it often. Too heavy. The crust is awesome though. TVP sauteed in hot wing sauce and mozzarella cheese, bleu cheese for sauce topped with thin sliced raw red onions

The 2008 MCC peregrine chicks doing a little wing exercising on the ledge. I would suppose they are days from their first flight. I have a feeling that the chick seen exercising wings in this montage is a female and will be the second to fledge. The chick in the middle, I think, is another much larger female. The guy on the left is probably a male (best viewed LARGE).
Gov. Scott Walker and senior Wisconsin National Guard leaders joined families and friends in welcoming the Wisconsin Army National Guard’s 32nd Military Police Company back to Wisconsin after a nine-month deployment to U.S. Naval Station Guantanamo Bay, Cuba. There the Soldiers served as part of a battalion assigned to various responsibilities in secure detention facilities, ensuring the safe, humane, and transparent care and custody for more than 45 law-of-war detainees at the Defense Department’s only strategic detention operations facility. During the course of their deployment, the 32nd MP Soldiers also conducted custody transfer of more than 20 detainees, in accordance with presidential executive orders.

Red-winged blackbird, Agelaius phoeniceus, male and juvenile.
I don’t have a clue what that wad of yellow was, but it was too big for that gullet. Pop put it in, took it out, put it in again, but it wasn’t going down. Finally, frustrated Junior just dropped it (see the video).

The black-winged kite (Elanus caeruleus) is a small diurnal bird of prey in the family Accipitridae best known for its habit of hovering over open grasslands in the manner of the much smaller kestrels. This Eurasian and African species was sometimes combined with the Australian black-shouldered kite (Elanus axillaris) and the white-tailed kite (Elanus leucurus) of North and South America which together form a superspecies. This kite is distinctive, with long-wings, white, grey and black plumage and owl like forward-facing eyes with red irises. Although mainly seen on the plains, they are sometimes seen on grassy slopes of hills in the higher elevation regions of Asia. They are not migratory, but make short-distance movements in response to weather.
This long-winged raptor is predominantly grey or white with black shoulder patches, wing tips and eye stripe. The long falcon-like wings extend beyond the tail when the bird is perched. In flight, the short and square tail is visible and it is not forked as in the typical kites of the genus Milvus. When perched, often on roadside wires, it often adjusts its wings and jerks its tail up and down as if to balance itself. The sexes are alike in plumage. Their large forward-facing eyes and velvety plumage are characters that are shared with owls and the genus itself has been considered as a basal group within the Accipitridae.
The black-winged kite is a species primarily of open land and semi-deserts in sub-Saharan Africa and tropical Asia, but it has a foothold within Europe in Spain and Portugal. The species range appears to be expanding in southern Europe and possibly in West Asia.
Their prey includes grasshoppers, crickets and other large insects, lizards and rodents. Injured birds, small snakes and frogs have also been reported. The black-winged kite flies slowly during hunting like a harrier, but it will also hover like a Kestrel. It has on rare occasions been known to hunt prey in flight. Perches are used for hunting and for feeding but large prey may sometimes be handled on the ground.
