Sharp Sky Associates have now risen into global awareness. With the massive deplete of DARKWATER troopers and facilities in Europe and the Middle East, Sharp Sky has made their move. Now Sharp Sky has bigger plans and will complete any task as long as the employer has a deep enough pocket.

For the Purge
Now while waiting for my minifigcat order, I thought I might showcase Sharp Sky troops.
Today was sooo exciting was out banding for the first time in ages due to scheduling conflicts and we only caught 6 birds BUT one of them was this Sharp Shinned Hawk-first time we've ever caught a Sharpie in the net
Couldn't actually band it....we needed ageolius' for that! I couldn't wait to post a shot right away-hope you enjoy!
Yes he did get pretty ruffled up-we should have made him look prettier!

Back Yard, Alberta
What would winter be without the return of the hawks to the back yard. Back for another season of hunting the birds that come to our feeders.
The 50th and final Showbus took place near Redbourn in Hertfordshire on 25/09/2022 and was attended by around 245 buses and coaches from up and down the UK.
My photos show some of the vehicles that helped make the day another big success.
The Gloucester & Sharpness Canal was once the broadest and deepest in the world. Even today, it stands out from other navigations because of its sheer scale and impressive engineering.
In this architectural detail of Pierre Vives in Montpellier, I isolated these striking white geometric elements against the black backdrop, creating a study in contrast and form. The sharp lines and angles emphasize the bold design of Zaha Hadid's architecture.

How would you guys feel if this was the last thing I ever posted?
Just a shot of the spines looking for a shot for SSC and this week's challenge is " Sharp " - and I can attest that they are indeed sharp . Out in the greenhouse the spiders are everywhere , hence the all the spider's webs here .
Not sure what variety this particular cactus is - maybe a Gymnocalycium or maybe an Echinocactus .

Commonly referred to as 'Sharpies', these migratory waders breed in Siberia & spend their Winters in Australia & New Zealand. Sharpies are usually found near water, in grasslands & mudflats.
sometimes when I am random things happen a yesterday was one such day
while walking around with people all around and getting a little attention from the reenactors, a total stranger a member of the public, aged early 30s Tall and not bad looking came across to me and in an American accent and said " just had to say you're looking really sharp"
oh wow that took me a little by surprise but hell did I feel good from his kind words.
These penguins come from Peru and are an endangered species. They rely on fish from the cold waters of the Humboldt current and if the water temperatures rise, it could affect the fish thence the penguins.
These ones can be seen at the Bioparc at Doué la Fontaine in Maine et Loire (49) France, a zoo dedicated to the protection and conservation of endangered species of bird and animal.
These penguins can give quite a sharp nip - as I saw when they were moved here from their old quarters !!
Sharp-tailed Shellsnatcher in winter plumage (aprillus foolus) ~ Fort DeSoto Florida
On my last trip to Fort DeSoto I had two lifers. The groove-billed ani and this shellsnatcher. The sharp-tailed variety are a west coast bird that sometimes can be found on Florida's gulf coast during migration. You can imagine how amazed I was seeing this one stroll down the beach making its notorious "chip-ip-chi-woo" call.
Happy 1st of April ;)
This Sharp-shinnedHawk which has become an every day visitor entertained me for several hours on a dark, wet day. I saw it 3 times between daylight and 2 pm yesterday (11/11) I am going to have to discourage it from coming to my home before it eats all of the quail. It sat here for at least an hour but surprisingly did not attempt to catch a quail even though there were quail below it several times. It did fly to the ground once when it may have been after a mouse. I think it already ate. This hawk was wet because it rained most of the morning. This bird was trying to get dry. IMG_6603
I went to check out Oyster Point on Sunday and came across this Genentech office building with very sharp corners. I pondered: what did they do with that space?

This is only the second Sharp-tailed Sandpiper I've seen in BC, the first being last year at Boundary Bay. They are such a beautiful sandpiper!
