Originally the Black bird was perched on the camera and I thought how it`s a bit ironic as we`re all being watched somehow and someway all the time.
Birds always have to be on the lookout for predators and food and these security cameras are always on the lookout for the mischief and mayhem that us humans have the potential to cause.
Then I thought to myself after uploading this picture what laws and by laws I may have violated just by photographing the camera.?
After I snapped a few pics of the bird perched on the camera it decided to spread it`s wings and take off resulting in this picture.

Lebanon has suffered from a civil war and a subsequent war with Israel. The latter ended with a cease fire, much like the Korean War, and technically the two countries are still at war. There are occasional skirmishes. The downtown area of Beirut, once a scene of heavy fighting, is adorned with police fortified posts. From these protected positions, the police could maintain control from a protected position and return fire when needed. These structures exist to this day and are maintained in the event they are again needed. The first picture, top left, shows a buidling riddled by gunfire. The 2nd photo shows a heavily armed Lebanese police officer. They are, in a word, everwhere. The security presence is both stifling and yet reassuring. The next 3 shots depict the various styles of fortified positions. The lower left show an armored vehicle. These are deployed all over Beirut and in the outlying areas as well. They are visible in sensitive spots. They are also amassed in numbers just off the main streets for rapid deployment. The bottom right shows a police checkpoint, complete with several reinforced positions and the customary concertina wire. This checkpoint is near the town of Baalbeck, which is the home of UNESCO ruins, as well as a Palestinian refugee camp, the latter being a Hezbollah stronghold. It is an area with tremendous potential, great people, and yet lingering regional tensions that can't seem to be resolved.

Tracks, barbed wire, utility structures, and a security camera sign form a quiet system of restriction — a place organized by lines, warnings, and distance.

Continuing the USAF Security theme, this photo depicts two airmen on security duty at an airfiled in the early 1960's.
There's not much needed to depict the airfield security team. The basic GI Joe soldier just needs black boots and a carbine in order to look like USAF Airfield Security from the 60's. The funky Fidel Castro style hat is right-on for the early 1960's. (I had no idea how common this was for this era Air Security until I started to research it. The cap is also known as a Ridgeway cap.)
This is a very common basic uniform for USAF security personnel of the 60's.
All figures and accessories depicted here are Hasbro 40th Anniversary GI Joe figures and sets. As a bonus, these two GI Joe Soldiers are from the JC Penny Mountain Troops set, which came with black boots from factory.

I bought that wonderful ceramic bear today. He was sculpted by Finnish ceramic artist Viljo Heinonen in 1955.
Pfc. Dylan Redecker, a rifleman with Company B., Battalion Landing Team 1st Battalion, 5th Marine Regiment, 31st Marine Expeditionary Unit, provides security during a bilateral boat raid as a part of exercise Cobra Gold 2013 here, Feb. 15. Cobra Gold is an annual exercise that includes numerous multilateral events ranging from amphibious assaults to non-combatant evacuation operations. The training aims to improve interoperability between the United States, the Kingdom of Thailand, and many other participating countries. The 31st MEU is the only continuously forward-deployed MEU and is the Marine Corps' force in readiness in the Asia-Pacific region.

I passed by this entrance of a commercial building on California Street and saw a cardboard security guard figure behind the revolving door. I thought that was cute and frame this shot with the backlight.
