KCS SD40-3 number 6600 is working the small yard at Neosho, Missouri on a clean spring morning in April, 2000.
A RCAF B-25 Mitchell bomber is given a Royal Navy Corsair escort over the Gatineau Airport - as part of Wings over Gatineau-Ottawa. First airshow I've attended in decades. Nicely done though - each aircraft was accompanied by music and news broadcasts from the era represented. The Corsair has been restored and dedicated as "Gray Ghost" in honour of, and as a flying memorial to, Lieutenant Robert Hampton Gray, Royal Canadian Navy, the last Canadian to earn the Victoria Cross during World War II. He lost his life when piloting his Royal Navy Corsair in an attack on Japanese warships in their home waters. www.navalandmilitarymuseum.org/resource_pages/heroes/gray...
Gray Ghost on his favorite perch by the end of the trail, with good lighting from this direction (and a little later in the morning).
Harriers, unlike most hawks, hunt with sound, and their facial feathers make make a disk-like antenna shape that 'collects' the sound, like an owl's facial feathers do. This photo shows this well.
I had the pleasure of this beauty hunting. I am glad I could capture few frames. FIRST PROCESSING FROM MY NEW MAC. Please share if it looks fine. 27 inch MAC calibrated with Spyder 4. Thanks for looking :)

John Mosby is my name.
Okay, that was a pretty obscure title, but bonus points for anyone that understands it without Googling. Hint: You must be pretty old to remember this.

NORTHERN HARRIER - MALE -01203616
I saw this male harrier on this branch on 4 different trips to Point Reyes. He posed nicely every time!
The Great Gray Owl has also been called Great Gray Ghost, Phantom of the north, Cinerous Owl, Spectral Owl, Lapland Owl, Spruce Owl, Bearded Owl and Sooty Owl.
Great Gray Owls fly with soft, slow wingbeats and generally do not often move more than short distances between perches and seldom glides. They fly close to the ground, usually less than 6 metres (20 feet) up, except when flying to a nest. May be very aggressive near the nest. The

Look at the stars,
Look how they shine for you,
And everything you do,

I wrote a song for you,
And all the things you do,
And it was called "Yellow".
So then I took my turn,
Oh what a thing to have done,
And it was all "Yellow."
Your skin,
Oh yeah your skin and bones,
Turn into something beautiful,
You know, you know I love you so,
You know I love you so.
I swam across,
I jumped across for you,
Oh what a thing to do.
Cos you were all "Yellow",
I drew a line,
I drew a line for you,
Oh what a thing to do,
And it was all "Yellow."
Your skin,
Oh yeah your skin and bones,
Turn into something beautiful,

For you I'd bleed myself dry,

Look at the stars,
Look how they shine for you,
And all the things that you do
Gray Ghost in a tree between me and his favorite perch. The thin twigs were moving a lot in the wind and he didn't seem to like that tree much (screaming some) and went back to his perch. (Really, I won't bother you again fellow...) Most of the pix the burst mode got of him in the tree had leaves in front of his face but I really like the couple that I did keep.

Project 365+1 149/366 28may2008
Watching him sit at the door made me a bit sad. He looked like he was remembering what it was like a few years ago when he could see the world around him. My big man is now blind from his diabetes. But, don't feel bad, he is amazing at knowing exactly where he is in the yard and where the corners of the house are and where all the plant and chairs are.
He is my hero.
The two people taking pictures atop the rock at Coyote Hills seem oblivious to the low flyby of the male northern harrier
This beautiful Weimaraner was sitting there looking ohhhhhh so anxious patiently waiting in his seat lol. Get this..I was at the Hair Salon getting my highlights lol and I asked one of the stylists to go into my car and get my camera..(Thanks!) to take this photo of the dog...I went outside looking like le freak to get this shot!!!
"The Weimaraner is a silver-gray breed of dog developed originally in early 19th century for hunting. Early Weimaraners were used by royalty for hunting large game, such as boar, bears, deer, and foxes. As the popularity of large game hunting began to decline, Weimaraners were used for hunting smaller animals, like fowl, rabbits, and foxes. Rather than having a specific purpose such as pointing or flushing, the Weimaraner is an all purpose gun dog. The Weimaraner is loyal and loving to his family, an incredible hunter, and a fearless guardian of his family and territory. The name comes from the Grand Duke of Weimar, Karl August, whose court enjoyed hunting."
