Isn't that at least the second photo you've posted showing "COH" spray painted on something out there? Is there a "COH" gang or something? LOL.

Nice on the bus yeah!

I think its the same..."code of honor" tagging crew.

Wtf!

For some reason I really like this picture. Of a little Wisteria seed I grew last year. It died, then from nothing, came back again (I have 5 that did it). Maybe its the bed of seedums and their changing colours.. the isolation of this young little guy.

My latest addition to the poly tank, a nice 10" Ornate bichir. He's settled right in with the rest of the group nicely.

Bald faced hornet nest on the back of my garage. These guys are scary and stare at me when I go by. Luckily it's an area I don't need to frequent.View attachment 204268

I wonder if they'll completely engulf the light fixture before the season ends?

I have some good photos of these (saw a huge one on the underside of an electrical transformer a number of years ago, I might have a photo somewhere). Just the other day found one in a spruce tree about 3 feet off the ground. Very unusual location.

Those bald face hornets are hard workers, its amazing how fast they can build a nest. Few years back we had them build a nest the size of a basketball in our crabapple tree while we were on vacation. Nothing in the tree before we left but it was a huge nest by the time we got back just 10 days later :eek:

I thought our nest was a hornet nest but when I zoomed in...appears to be yellow jackets. Nest is very similar.

This is the one I saw under a transformer a few years ago. From a distance it was "what the heck"...

Old people birthday celebration today. Barcycle (trolley car thing with pedals) that takes you from bar to bar. Luckily it had a motor, so pedaling was optional!View attachment 204600
Good to see those are still allowed in some places of the world. Over here these cycles turned into bars themselves. Then they got banned because too many drunk people fell off and they crashed too often.

Lol, we did take coolers, but no injuries, and we had a driver.
