A Red-shouldered Hawk beats his wings hard, trying to climb and gain speed as he takes off from a low perch.

Hard to climb for a chick.
And hard to catch for the photographer !!
They are sooooo fast
You can see how fast it was for example if you watch to the falling droplets.

A westbound Santa Fe freight climbs Ash Hill at Klondike, California, while crossing the Mojave Desert on March 9, 1995. Powering the train is GE C40-8W No. 851, GE C44-9W No. 610 and EMD SD45-2B No. 5514.
Made by my spouse decades ago when then-Storage Technology gave away tiny chips. (If you're into geeky 'where are they now queries', Storage Tech was acquired by Sun Microsystems, which was later acquired by Oracle Corporation.)
But back to our wee 2cm chip. He is climbing a tiny piece of driftwood. That's a winter leaf or two behind him (he has very long horns or antennae, hence his gender). Bokeh balls come from a crumpled piece of foil some distance away. Tried this outdoors, but a strong wind toppled the fearless mountain goat.
I think perhaps Howard made EPROM earrings for me around the same time (see first comment).
In January 2022 I asked for help and a Flickr support hero removed both of my accounts from the Explore algorithm. I feel more relaxed and my jaw no longer hurts. I’m grateful to SmugMug for saving Flickr, and I have nothing against Explore; it just is not for me—especially during this pandemic.
The one on the bottom looks like she's climbing an invisible ladder
Hope you can see this on a large screen. The one on top is a crossbill
A westbound Burlington Northern Santa Fe freight train climbs Raton Pass at Gallinas, Colorado, on February 26, 1999, led by Santa Fe GE C40-8W No. 911 still looking pretty good in the railroad’s famous warbonnet livery.
Common Spotted Ladybird (Harmonia conformis)
I spotted this Ladybird caught in a spider web yesterday afternoon. I took a shot of it caught in the web and then set it free. It flew off my finger to the ground and beetled off to find a new home. I was interested to see that it chose to climb over anything in its way rather than go around.
Small springtime white flowers in the warm sunshine, with an even tinier insect making the most of this early food source.
Beautiful rose "Climbing Iceberg". Night shot in our garden.
Stay safe!

The climb up the Niagara escarpment begins for both of these trains. CP 247-31 ascends the 2% percent grade up the Hamilton sub as CN A43531-31 starts to climb the grade to Copetown. Sometimes the stars align and things work out. Not a bad way to end 2020. Cheers to health, happiness, and prosperity in 2021!
