Looking 'all-wight' ;-) is classic looking Dart 35153 its been like this since before lockdown (February from memory) guess it will gain the new Stagecoach livery at some point but at present needs must and it continues in use as is.

Darters forage by diving to depths of about 60 centimetres, and impaling fish with its sharp, spear-like beak. Small fish are swallowed underwater, but larger ones are brought to the surface, where they are flicked off the bill (sometimes into the air) and then swallowed head-first. www.birdlife.org.au/bird-profile/australasian-darter
Sympetrum striolatum on the lounger
They were still mating on 11 October! I was watching a pair in the hopes of a pic when suddenly the female vanished. I lifted a lily leaf to see if she had drowned and found her wings sticking out of a frog mouth...sadly it was off before I got a photo!

I made a shortish walk around my local reserve and surroundings this afternoon. Lots of butterflies were flying but I took no photos. Only a few dragonflies were seen and only darters stopped.
Here we see Stagecoach South West 35167 WA56FKU photographed at Woodville while rarely operating Barnstaple town service 12C.
Taken February 2022.
Somehow Citybus' Darts seem to defy the chop, just when a year or so when they looked to be on their way the remaining 7 continue to put in the hard work.
Sadly it looks as if most of the major ops are winding down Dart operation, FSW announced theirs will probably be gone by May and some of Stagecoach ones are failing by the wayside when major/multiple faults develop - a cost factor thing now I am sure.
Ironically earlier in the day before I took this, sister Dart no.60 was seen being towed after breaking down but did re-enter service so obviously nothing too major wrong!
Bit of a tight shot this, had to crop slightly as some bloke walked past to the right and his arm got in the shot!
61 is passing the entrance to Plymouth Gin Distillery to the left (note the repo but period appropriate street lantern) off to the right is where myself and the wife had just emerged from 'The Bottling Plant' which is now a restaurant/cocktail/drinks bar but was once the bottling location for Plymouth Gin!
I believe that this is possibly a Ruddy Darter Dragonfly. If any one can positively identify him I would be very greatful
The River Dart is the source of much folklore on Dartmoor, where it is traditionally respected and feared - the waters have a tendency to rise without notice following heavy rainfall on the moors above, adding to the dangers of its rapids and powerful currents. This gave rise to the couplet:
"River of Dart, Oh River of Dart!
Every year thou claimest a heart."

Darter waiting for the next insect to fly by. It caught around 10 small flies in as many minutes and landed in the exact same spot to eat them. Path to Ormesby little broad.
The DART trains rides through the Convention Center to the Union Station near the Reunion Tower in Downtown Dallas.
A vehicle I've been hunting down for years as it rarely sees the light of day at last showed its face in Hayward's Heath this afternoon, 29th January, 2025. P831 JPO is one of a handful of Dennis Darts never used as buses. It was bodied by Leicester Carriage Builders as a command unit for West Sussex Fire Brigade. It did have a twin which was tragically lost in a huge blaze at a firework factory near Lewes in 2006.
