Texas Raiders pulls into the parking area and passes a Lear Jet as it presents its profile and nose art to us.
This beautifully restored B-17G Flying Fortress is owned by the Commemorative Air Force and visits airports and airshows around the country. This shots are from its visit to Northwest Arkansas Regional Airport last September.
Profiles of some of my TT's if they were real cars. Top to bottom: Rogue Destroyer GTS, Winston W6 Longsword, Yamato RS-M. The Destroyer is based on a friend's own interpretation. Not 100% on it. Wheels are a tad too far apart and the sides look funny. Alright with the others, though.
I took advantage of a tarp as a background for a portrait of Stormy, the La Mancha goat. Guests who know that the zoo has eagles who have been injured in the wild sometimes speculate that Stormy lost his ears and horns.
In reality, La Mancha goats are naturally different! Their horns and ears are small.
Gambel's Quail seen at the Sonny Bono Salton Sea National Wildlife Refuge.
note: In 1998, the refuge was renamed the Sonny Bono Salton Sea National Wildlife Refuge to commemorate congressman and former celebrity showman Bono who was an early champion of Salton Sea remediation efforts.

Soil profile: A representative soil profile of Tornillo loam in an area of Tornillo loam, 0 to 2 percent slopes, occasionally flooded. Tornillo soils are stratified from depositional events. They are very deep soils. (Soil Survey of Big Bend National Park, Texas; by James Gordon, Soil Scientist, James A. Douglass, Soil Scientist, and Dr. Lynn E. Loomis, Soil Scientist, Natural Resources Conservation Service)
Landscape: An area of Tornillo loam, 0 to 2 percent slopes, occasionally flooded. Tornillo soils are on alluvial flats and very susceptible to water erosion. Tornillo soils are in the Loamy ecological site, Hot Desert Shrub vegetative zone of MLRA 42—Southern Desertic Basins, Plains, and Mountains. The background is the Rosillos Mountains, located in the northern area of Big Bend National Park.
The Tornillo series consists of very deep, well drained, moderately permeable soils that formed in calcareous loamy alluvial materials. These nearly level to very gently sloping soils are on broad valley floors and flood plain steps. Slope ranges from 0 to 3 percent. The mean annual precipitation is about 11 inches and the mean annual air temperature is about 70 degrees F.
TAXONOMIC CLASS: Fine-loamy, mixed, superactive, hyperthermic Ustifluventic Haplocambids
Soil moisture: Ustic aridic moisture regime. Intermittently moist in the soil moisture control section during July through September.
Mean annual soil temperature: 72 to 78 degrees F.
Reaction: neutral to slightly alkaline
Texture: fine sandy loam, sandy clay loam, loam, silt loam, clay loam, or silty clay loam
Particle-size control section (weighted average):
Clay content: 18 to 35 percent
Rock fragments: 0 to 15 percent igneous and sedimentary gravel
Calcium carbonate equivalent: less than 10 percent
USE AND VEGETATION: Used mostly for livestock grazing. Present vegetation is creosotebush, mesquite, fluffgrass, slim tridens, tobosa, and threeawn.
DISTRIBUTION AND EXTENT: Southwest Texas in Major Land Resource Area 42. The series is of minor extent.

Ok, I have 19 dolls? I'm pretty sure I was down to 14 or 15 at one point, but then, I don't know what happened. >_>;
Anyway, all new portraits, all taken at relatively the same time in the same light! (It took me a few hours though, and I had several breaks.)
You'll have to go to my photostream to see all of them, if you are interested! ^_^
