I watched a helicopter hovering over the river bottom, next to the airport. By the sound, I knew he was struggling. After a minute or two, he began to rise and I could see why. Suspended beneath him was a smaller helicopter. He picked it up and took it over to the airport and set it down. I didn't see any damage to the little one, but I was probably about a half mile away. I wonder if it was worked on by the same guy who worked on the little airplane a couple weeks ago

I'm sure a helicopter tow isn't cheap

I was thinking that wasn't in line with your diet when looking. That said, it did look rather yummy.

Caught this water spout while walking the dog at the beach. Only lasted a couple of minutes but it got my attention.



They aren't usually that dangerous but a few years ago one formed right off the shore about 3 miles north of us, ran up on land and turned into a tornado. The path went right through a camp ground and killed a family of 4.

So, yes, I did check my shorts when I got home.

A Roadrunner skittering across the bicycle path and an Osprey dining on a fish over by the stadium in Glendale Arizona.



Yesterday I watched three Northern Harriers ride a thermal from just above the treetops, round and round, higher and higher until they were completely out of sight.

View is south from Washburn Butte. Brownsville, where "Stand By Me" was filmed is in distance at left.

Grandson (12) just showed me a wooden geocoin he had found near Stonehenge last summer:



From the enclosed paper it may just be an advertising give away:



Impressed me anyhow.
