A vulture found a run over large rat a few days ago as I was riding by four-feet away when crows attract it in a coordinated maneuver. The vulture was at least four times the size but didn't stand a chance.

They can attack a full sized mountain goat, tossing it off a clif.
We have a lot of grain elevators that attract hundreds of pigeons. That has attracted a breeding pair of peregrine falcons. It is amazing to see the burst of feathers.

there was an instance of an eagle carrying off a baby around here the baby was killed as I understand it,seems like the nest was in a quarry,heard of birds carrying "yappy dogs " off,have heard of eagles killing quadrupeds attacking the back and severing the spinal cord( glad pterosaurs don't exist now!)

I have a glutton-knee in my hollow leg.
I am starting to get excited. I was the chief instigator for a gathering on the 15th. About 40 people, with lots of tots, will have a picnic in the wildflowers, sipping wine, flying kites, and do a kid egg hunt. It is an annual thing I started with 4 people 4-years-ago.

If people realized how fragile those dura aluminum tubes were perhaps they would reconsider sitting in one 30,000 ft in the air, the next thing people need to consider is how volatile hydrocarbon fuels are( rechargeable batteries are amateur in comparison.

I often see them at 30,000 feet and always wonder the destination. I saw one today at 60,000 ft headed toward Mexico City from maybe Anchorage today. Weird. Flights from NYC to Soul take a great arch. I always guess from where to where.

While I can understand it written, I would rather not get it spoken

On our first day touring Co. Donegal, we entered a local pub and asked the patrons where we could find a good restaurant. They pointed at the direction and said something about the details, OK for me. After Brix and I got off the pub and produced some cigarettes, a friendly man joined us for a fag and a little bit of chat. As I could not understand a word, I smiled at the man and told him he spoke too fast for me to understand anything. He smiled back and said something like 'If you think my English is too fast, learn that Gaelic is even faster!'

Mt. Errigal, the highest peak in Donegal as seen from the recommended restaurant.

English speakers in the Isles speak in so many accents and at such a different pace! If the words start to blend, I'm helpless. Having said that I need to also say a chat I had with a senior road cyclist in Margate was one of the easiest and nicest to me! Not only did the man speak a clear and elegant English but we also talked about something the most interesting to both of us: cycling Now, I know the road quality in England is not the highest: that's what he told me beyond any doubt!

Pi day, March 14 — as in 03-14-2026 — is just a week away. Not too soon to start appreciating all the important circular things in your life.

I can think of a few right off the bat.

The ship were are sending to defend Cyprus, HMS Dragon is stuck being fitted out because the shipyard had all overtime banned to cut costs.

Anyway this has resulted in a word play no one had considered before..
Its Dragin On.
Even worse weve had to be rescued by the French and their incoming mockery will be well deserved
