Red Tailed Hawks are Very Special Birds to Me

There is a special spot in my heart for red tailed hawks (Buteo jamaicensis) because my first falconry bird was a red tail. She had been injured and couldn’t fly well enough to be released back into the wild, but she worked well for short flight demonstration at the nature park where I worked. That’s why I’m always happy when I see one. I love being able to see them in the wild and image what my…

Nothing's difficult. Everything's a challenge!

Through adversity, to the stars.

From the last plane to the last bullet to the last minute to the last man

We fight. We fight! WE FIGHT!

it’s crazy how much diversity there can be in one species…these are all pictures of the same bird species (red-tailed hawk)

Hey, fun fact:

There's a George Lucas film based off of the Tuskegee Airmen that came out in 2012.

Just in case that's relevant.

Me? Encouraging pirating? Noooooo, don't be silly.

Jason Todd arrives to the Gotham after being brought back alive for the first time, and while building up his career as Red Hood, visits Harvey Dent in the Arkham. They talk in a surprising peace, discuss this and this, and Jason even shares some of his insane ass lore, because, honestly, who is going to believe Harvey Dent?

And no one doesn't.

But there is a problem. The next time Bruce Wayne visits Harvey, Harvey randomly drops a bomb on him by saying that he is so, so glad that their Jaylad is back, and he grew up so much, looks so much like Bruce now! He even tries to assure him that, you see, yeah, Jason was dead, but he crawled out of his grave, and then, the Lazarus Pit fixed him!

Bruce thinks Harvey finally had reached the end of his line. Like, low-key, the last stage of insanity.

Harvey: God, he is still so well-mannered. I feel so pleased that he came to visit old me first, though. I always thought I was his favourite over you.

Bruce, laughing awkwardly, while asking the medics to add some new medicine to Harvey: Ahaha, yeah, that sounds like our Jaylad.

Harvey: Super happy for him, seriously. I mean, look at him, getting himself a new career as a Red Hood. That's our son. Feel a little bit bitter that he is into Al Ghuls family now, but that's fine.

Bruce, frowning, because Harvey isn't supposed to know about Al Ghuls and their connection to Lazarus Pit or about Red Hood: Uh, had J-Jason said something else to you?

Harvey: Oh, damn, we spoke for the whole night. He was pissed at you, though. Like, for the Tim guy, whoever he is.

Bruce, turning to the doctors: ...Maybe, uh, give me the same pills you gave him. I feel like I need it, too.

Fashion| The Brooklyn Circus Teams with Randolph to Pay Homage to Tuskegee Airmen in Special Capsule Collection

New York’s fashion and design powerhouse, The Brooklyn Circus, teams up with Maine’s premier aviator-glasses designer Randolph, for a special capsule collection. The limited series is a homage to the amazing history of the Tuskegee Airmen who infamously wore aviator glasses as if it was a part of the uniform. The Tuskegee Airmen, a group of Black pilots from the US Air Force, also known as the…

History has it that this guy was assigned to the 332nd Fighter Group in the Air Force. In TFATWS Ep5, Isaiah Bradley did briefly mention the “Red Tails, the famous 332” when speaking to Sam. IRL, it seems, Wooten never saw combat in war even though he trained to fly the B-25s. The war ended before he could be sent overseas.

So perhaps the symbolism is that since Sam’s whole encounter with Bradley that evening ended with Isaiah warning Sam: “They will never let a Black man be Captain America. And even if they did, no self-respecting Black man would ever wanna be.”, the photograph might be a way of reminding Sam in CABNW to remain humble, to remember his roots, to keep in mind those who have served the country but whose history have been left out of the books, to remember his conversation with Isaiah Bradley, to remind Sam of why he does the things he does.

What do you mean Howard A. Wooten is canonically in the MCU??!

Is Sam related to him somehow? What’s the story?? Originally a Tuskegee Airman and later working at Boeing, he died in a scaffolding accident at age 28 and his photo was later used on Air Force recruitment drives?? Marvel what’s the story what??

Even the Birds Were a Little Chilly this Last Week

Cold Morning Like much of the rest of the United States, the last week has been much colder here than usual. We even had snow in the Florida panhandle and into northern central Florida. That’s not a once in a lifetime occurrence, but it sure isn’t the normal for us. And not only have we people been chilled by this unusual weather, but so has the wildlife. On my way into my office last week I saw…
