Successfully used in combat in the Battle of France, accounting for about a third of the AdLA victories.
Typically French, the throttles had to be modified to operate in the opposite direction to aircraft for the US and UK.....
Just up the shoreline from the Least Terns, this is a Forster's I think. On this May Gray day, the lone fisherman nailed one. I was a little slow finding the water exit (behind it), but I'm still pretty happy with the 2x on my little 300. It's actually lighter than my big 200-600 zoom by a few ounces, my new walkabout lens.

My first successful shot of a bug in the wild (never mind the poor little jumping spider I trapped under a glass :)) He was so focused on the bounty of the sunflower he paid no mind to me. The breeze was bouncing the bloom around and I'm still a total rookie when it comes to metering but not too bad.

This successful cheetah mother, Neema, (Acinonyx jubatus) has successfully raised three of her original litter of four cubs.
Having three young cubs to feed she has to hunt daily as the cubs are yet to begin hunting and still very young, 18 months, to be left on their own.
This is one of her cubs, following Mamma who was on the prowl and was captured during a photography safari on a late evening game drive in the Maasai Mara Game Reserve, Kenya.
One storm passed, another one coming. This barn still stands though with little purpose now. For most of us, a successful life consists of learning how to endure the storms.
One of the most looked-to examples of successful wildlife overpasses is in Banff, over the Trans-Canada Highway. A study there shows that in just one two-mile stretch, wildlife-vehicle crashes reduced from an average of 12 a year to 2.5, reducing costs of crashes by 90 percent—over $100,000.Apr 16, 2019
Grizzlies and ungulates prefer the open sightlines offered by the overpasses.
"Over the span that they have existed, they've reduced wildlife mortality by 80 per cent, which is incredible. For deer alone and other ungulates, it's 96 per cent, so they're very effective."

The serval (Leptailurus serval) is a wild cat native to Africa.
The serval is a slender, medium-sized cat that stands 54-62 cm (21-24 in) at the shoulder and weighs 9-18 kg (20-40 lb). It is characterised by a small head, large ears, a golden-yellow to buff coat spotted and striped with black, and a short, black-tipped tail. The serval has the longest legs of any cat relative to its body size.
The serval is a solitary carnivore and active both by day and at night. It preys on rodents, particularly vlei rats, small birds, frogs, insects, and reptiles, using its sense of hearing to locate prey. It leaps over 2 m (6 ft 7 in) above the ground to land on the prey on its forefeet, and finally kills it with a bite on the neck or the head. Both sexes establish highly overlapping home ranges of 10 to 32 km2 (4 to 12 sq mi), and mark them with feces and saliva.
Having hidden her three very cute kittens, Mamma Serval went hunting and within 30 minutes she managed to catch a vlei rat which it quickly took back to it's very eager and hungry kittens. Captured during a photography safari on a late evening game drive in Maasai Mara National Reserve, Kenya.

765's Engineer has the binders on as it slows for North Glenview after coming under the UP at Techny IL.
I was very lucky to have got such a close pass from this Puffin during my trip to Skomer Island last weekend. I just love that place and these comical sea birds are simply great to watch.
Successfully riding through wind and waves takes a great amount of skill and strength, but the reward must be, I can only assume, very thrilling!
Pistol River Wave Bash 2014
After successfully shooting CPKC 418 with the duo of tribute units on the point, I crossed over the CPKC Clover Bar Yard on my way home. Looking at the units below, I could have sworn I saw the flashy new CPKC paint scheme. I took the next exit, and went to investigate. What I saw was, in fact, not a CPKC unit, but rather a CN unit. What I didn't expect, however, was to meet another railfan, who told me CP 7431 would be arriving shortly on a manifest. With luck on my side, I ventured up the CP Scotford Subdivision to find them. Around Fort Saskatchewan, I saw a line of tanks rolling in the distace. I had no idea if that was the train, but I didn't want to miss them, just in case. I turned around and set up at the closest crossing, where not only did I find out it was indeed 7431, but it also just happened to stop right in front of me! I took the opportunity to grab as many shots as I could, because I knew it'd be a while before I shot the CP side of things again. Eventually, darkness set in, and I called it a successful day.
