    Today’s Photo From Ted Grussing Photography: A Special Beauty While They Are In Flight

    … our friends with wings display a wonderful beauty when they are perched and waiting for a reason to fly, but the true beauty occurs when they leave the perch and enter flight. They have complete control over each flight feather as well as their ability to shape the airfoil of their wings. Each flight feather is controlled to provide maximum control over flight, take off and landing … sudden alterations in flight path when in pursuit of prey.

    In the top photo we have an adult Bald Eagle on his way to a quiet bay in search of food … below we have a hen Merganser on her take off run from very quiet water at Lake Pleasant. Both of these birds are fish eaters, but there is big difference in the size of the fish consumed.

    On Friday July 29th and Sunday July 31st, Michele will have a table at the Hummingbird Festival located in the Performing Arts Center 995 Upper Red Rock Loop Rd, Sedona, AZ 86336. She will be there between the hours of 12N and 1:30 in the afternoon on those two days. I will be there helping her and also handling Enedina, her new Saker Falcon that is joining the flying team of IRFC. Saker falcons are a large falcon and can reach very high speeds, second only to the Peregrine Falcon, which can clock speeds over 180 mph in a dive … the Saker falcon can clock speeds of 150 mph in a dive … think of it, bone, flesh and feathers at 150 mph!

    Paid Political Ad

    Hope to see you Friday or Sunday … into the weekend for me and the plan as always is to return Monday morning and I will have photos of Enedina (the Saker Falcon) to show you.

    Cheers, smile and give thanks for the privilege of being here … really, how awesome it is to be alive … to witness the beauty of creation and share it it with friends and family.

    Smiles,

    Ted

    Sweet summer, may I sing as thou, for every
    leaf of thine is pregnant with music in the soft
    winds, and every rose inspires the tenderness
    of song. I yield myself to the thousand
    enchantments of sky and field and wood,
    and play again like a child on the soft green
    of the earth.

    The Sad Lesson of Tyre Nichols
    By Tommy Acosta
    Having grown up in the mean streets of the Bronx there is one lesson we learn early on, and that’s don’t mess with the cops when they got you down, and outnumbered. The beating of Tyre Nichols at the hands of the police preceding his death at the hospital could have been avoided if only he had the sense to not resist them. People fail to understand that on the streets, cops are basically “God.” You can’t fight them. If it takes one, two, five, ten or twenty officers they will eventually put you down and hurt you if they have to in the process of detaining or arresting you. In the Bronx we would fight amongst ourselves but when the cops came it was “Yes, officer. No, officer,” and do our best to look as innocent as possible. People need to understand that cops on the street represent the full power of the state and government. Read more→
