Looking back through my files at photos taken over the last few years, I came upon a series of shots of a sparrowhawk, taken at Potteric Carr nature reserve. I remember scrambling for my camera as the bird landed under a tree, searching for prey which had vanished into the bushes. The sun was setting on a February day, backlighting the bird and creating lovely lights among the shadows

The prey are easy to see. The predator is hidden. But, the buck sees it. It was a few minutes until the little buck finally chased it away.

Komodo dragon (Varanus komodoensis) and Sunda sambar (Rusa timorensis) - Komodo National Park, Indonesia
A komodo dragon strides past the deer that are one of its main prey items. The deer do not appear to be particularly worried as they keep an eye on the dragon and give it some space. The dragon they can see is relatively safe but a surprise attack by one of the large monitors can pose a danger to these deer. For years there was a misconception that the bacteria living in the dragons mouth were responsible for killing its prey that it had bitten but not killed. In recent years this has been disproved, the dragons do possess some venom. In fact proteins that are present in their venom are known to inhibit blood clotting, lower blood pressure, induce muscle paralysis, and induce hypothermia, leading to shock and loss of consciousness in prey. How potent their venom is and how much of an effect it really has is debatable, most of the dragons prey dies of blood loss from the massive wounds sustained from the lizards backwards hooking teeth. Many of us have heard of water buffalo slowly succumbing to the infection of the bites wounds due to the bacterial flora of the dragons mouth but actually the infection stems from the filthy water in the pools they soak in rather than anything the dragon introduces.

As if you could out-run me!
As if you could fight me off!
I'm designed to kill...

Io sono il predatore più pericoloso che ci sia al mondo!
Ogni cosa, tutto, tutto di me ti attrae...la mia voce...la mia faccia...il mio odore perfino...
Come se io avessi bisogno di questo! Come se tu potessi sfuggirmi!
O potessi respingermi!
Io sono fatto per uccidere...

The Rules of the Game:
Posting of a detail fragment of a work of art will take place sometime after 8:00 PM EST, five days a week (Sunday; Monday; Tuesday; Wednesday; Thursday. There are no IDs on Friday or Saturday)
Correct answers are allotted points in the following manner:
First correct respondent receives 6 points
Second: 5 points
third: 4 points
fourth: 3 points
fifth: 2 points
Each respondent after that receives 1 point, whether the artist named is correct or not.. 2 points will be awarded if there were not 5 awards.
Incorrect responses will be awarded at least one point (there is no penalty for guessing...actually encouraged).
The opportunity to accrue points can only happen within a maximum of 24 hours. Once the full photograph of the work of Art is elevated and the artist identified, no additional scoring (for that work can occur). (In other words, regardless of pleas, points will not be awarded for a comment/ID made days after the posting) ( Also, 15 guesses does not generate 15 points...only 1 point )
A favorite of the photograph will also garnish 1 point ( only if nothing else is ventured by the participant,…1 point is not added to any other points awarded ).
A summary of scores for the top five positions will be published each Sunday, at the beginning of each set of five photographs.
Caveats / Understanding:
Postings may be held up due to circumstances beyond my control.
Delays in posting may occur each evening. ( sorry, no guarantee on 8:00 EDT, I’m a working stiff in the finance industry and there are late nights at times. – usually month end btw ).
In addition, as most of you are aware, part of the clues for each identity is a “presence/absence” notation about whether the artist has been in a prior Identity Set. Because flickr’s new format doesn’t facilitate the reading of a long list of names in a “Set’s” overview/description, those lists are also available on request. If you send me an email address that can receive attachments, I will transmit an Windows based Excel sheet with the names of the artists and the number of their paintings/objects. ( Be sure to specify which format you would like: xlsx; xls; csv; txt – tab delimited – if you don’t specify the default is xlsx MS Office-10). ( non-windows participants should request txt).
Also, sorry for the bias the timing provides those in the Americas but no matter how I thought about it… I couldn’t come up with a plan to assist Europe and Asia.

Did you know?
The number of cheetahs has decreased from 100,000 at end of the 19th century to approximately 10,000 today.
The cheetah has suffered from inbreeding, high infant mortality, loss of habitat, a reduction in its prey base, conflicts with livestock farming, and a reduced ability to survive in parks and reserves due to the presence of larger predators.
Yet, despite all these problems, the cheetah is the oldest of the big cats, and has survived the longest.
