Yep, most associate decoys with hunting and guns. Well we hunt, just with cameras :)
The Bufflehead, at least here, is a super skittish creature. Maybe this will get them closer?

In the twilight of their years, old spies of the Cold War era found themselves grappling with modern technology.
A master of clandestine Morse code, now baffled by the intricacies of sending a simple text message.
These veterans of espionage, once adept at outsmarting the KGB, faced their greatest challenge: surviving the digital age with their dignity intact.

Posted the inner image but designed this for a book. Loved the impact of how it turned out.

Expedition 68 Flight Engineer and NASA spacewalker Josh Cassada prepares a roll-out solar array for its deployment on the International Space Station's (ISS) Port-4 truss segment as the orbiting lab flew 262 miles above the Atlantic Ocean off the coast of Namibia.
Astronauts Frank Rubio and Josh Cassada conducted a spacewalk on Thursday, Dec. 22, 2022, for seven hours and eight minutes to install the new roll-out solar arrays to upgrade the station’s power system. The new ISS Roll-Out Solar Arrays (iROSAs) will increase power generation capability by up to 30%, increasing the station’s total available power from 160 kilowatts to up to 215 kilowatts.

SAN DIEGO (Jan. 5, 2017) The aircraft carrier USS Carl Vinson (CVN 70) departs from Naval Air Station North Island at the commencement of its 2017 deployment. The Carl Vinson Carrier Strike Group is departing on a scheduled deployment to the Western Pacific where it will conduct bilateral exercises in the Indo-Asia-Pacific region.

Another take on the Crazy Tuesday challenge: Childhood Memories. As an "Army Brat" for much of my formative years naturally playing with toy soldiers was a daily thing. These soldiers are not from back then all of those are missing in action. These are newer ones and not quite as cool as the older ones. Not much detail and not very well balanced.
Happy Crazy Tuesday!
When it's warm enough, the owners advertise sail boat rides and deploy the colorful sail. This has happened often as we walk by.
Pacino di Buonaguida or Bonaguida (Florence, c. 1280 - 1339 ?) - Tree of Life (1305-1310) - tempera and gold on panel 248 x 151 cm.- Galleria dell'Accademia, Florence
Il soggetto della tavola è tipicamente francescano e si ispira all'opuscolo di meditazioni del Lignum Vitae di Bonaventura da Bagnoregio, in cui l'antichissimo tema dell'Albero della vita si fondeva con la storia della croce di Cristo. Il testo infatti si divide in dodici "rami" o "frutti" e quarantotto capitoli o meditazioni, fedelmente riprodotti nel dipinto.
Al centro campeggia Cristo crocifisso, nella posizione realistica inaugurata pochi anni prima da Giotto nel Crocifisso di Santa Maria Novella, con pochi accenni espressionistici come il sangue che scende lungo il tronco dell'Albero. Da ogni lato dipartono sei rami, da leggere da sinistra a destra e dal basso verso l'alto, alternatamente rossi e verdi con notazioni vegetali di stampo miniaturistico (Pacino era infatti anche un miniatore), dai quali pendono a sua volta quattro medaglioni ("frutti") con storie cristologiche, simboleggianti le virtù di Gesù, enunciate nei cartigli che corrono lungo i rami. Fa eccezione l'ultimo ramo in alto a destra, poiché il capitolo quarantotto è rappresentato nella cuspide: il paradiso.
In the center stands Christ crucified, in the realistic position inaugurated a few years earlier by Giotto in the Crucifix of Santa Maria Novella, with a few expressionistic hints such as the blood running down the trunk of the Tree. From each side deploy six branches, to be read from left to right and from bottom to top, alternately red and green with plant notations in the miniature style (Pacino was in fact also a miniaturist), from which hang in turn four medallions ("fruits") with Christological stories, symbolizing the virtues of Jesus, enunciated in the scrolls running along the branches. The exception is the last branch on the upper right, as chapter forty-eight is represented in the spire: heaven.
Following a relatively brief development period, the C3 was formally accepted into service by the Canadian Army in 2024. The vehicle represented a major leap in capabilities from the old Leopard 1 variants they replaced, and its fire control system and 130mm ETC armament remain one of the most potent in all of NATO. Due to the intense rearmament campaigns in the west, surplus Leopard 2s were not available as anticipated, and American M6 Jacksons would also take too long to acquire. Its smaller size compared to its contemporaries also makes transportation relatively easier, making the vehicle a favorite among NATO leadership for organizing quick reaction forces. It also means that smaller recovery vehicles, like the ZEUS Boxer ARM can service and recover these vehicles, thus greatly improving recoverability and availability.
On deployment, the PAAWS (Passive/Active Armor, Wartime, Supplemental) kit is considered essential to survive against any sort of anti-armor threat. The pictured C3 is “in-theater” as part of NATO’s rotating Baltic security commitment in Lithuania, near the border with Kaliningrad. NATO works closely with the Nordic Defense Council in this region to serve as a deterrent against the ever-enigmatic West Russia. Of course, one could reasonably argue that West-Russia has some reason for its aggressive posturing, with its exclave surrounded by NDC Lithuanian and NATO Polish armor.
Canadian infantry accompany this vehicle, though in an actual war, such a position would be near-suicidal, as the vehicle’s active protection system would very likely cause grievous injury to anyone near it. Still, close-support tactics are essential to practice, as no matter how many optics or weapons one puts on a tank, the infantryman will always be the best anti-infantry support a tank can get.
couldnt believe my luck with giving my camera to the boom. This was taken with my handheld Canon SD1000. What an amazing effect!
It was close to sunset and we passed about 60,000lbs to this Bone who went off to hunt in the mountains. He passed by us after getting gas and descended into the mountains...I wish I had my camera up front at the time! This shot more than makes up for it though.

Over the weekend of June 17-18, 2017, engineers on the ground remotely operated the International Space Station's robotic Canadarm2 to extract the Roll Out Solar Array (ROSA) experiment from the SpaceX Dragon resupply ship. The experiment will remain attached to the Canadarm2 over seven days to test the effectiveness of ROSA, an advanced, flexible solar array that rolls out like a tape measure.
