Bearded vulture
The bearded vulture (Gypaetus barbatus) is a very large bird of prey in the monotypic genus Gypaetus. It is vernacularly known as the Homa, a bird in Iranian mythology. The bearded vulture is the only known vertebrate whose diet consists of 70 to 90 per cent bone. It lives and breeds on crags in high mountains in Iran, southern Europe, East Africa, the Indian subcontinent, Tibet, and the Caucasus. The bearded vulture population is thought to be in decline; since 2014, it has been classified as near threatened on the IUCN Red List. Bearded vultures are 94 to 125 centimetres (37 to 49 inches) long, with a wingspan of 2.31 to 2.83 metres (7.6 to 9.3 feet). This bearded vulture was photographed carrying a piece of carrion in the Alps in Switzerland, where the species was reintroduced in the late 20th century after having become locally extinct in the early 20th century.Photograph credit: Giles Laurent

Confederate flag originally issued to the regiment
Confederate flag originally issued to the regiment

The 8th Missouri Infantry Regiment was an infantry regiment of the Confederate States Army during the American Civil War. In 1862, the unit entered Confederate service and participated in the Battle of Prairie Grove, where the unit's charges against the Union lines were repulsed by artillery fire. The regiment spent early 1863 encamped near Little Rock and Pine Bluff in Arkansas, and was part of the Confederate defense of Little Rock before retiring to Camp Bragg. In 1864, the regiment went to Louisiana to help defend against the Red River campaign. It was part of a failed attack at the Battle of Pleasant Hill, then sent back to Arkansas. The regiment took part in a failed attack at the Battle of Jenkins' Ferry, then was stationed at several points in Louisiana and Arkansas. After the Confederate Trans-Mississippi Department surrendered, the men of the 8th Missouri Infantry Regiment were paroled on June 7, ending the regiment's service. (Full article...)

Mount Rundle

Mount Rundle is a mountain in Banff National Park that overlooks the towns of Banff and Canmore in the Canadian province of Alberta. Geologically, it consists of limestones, dolomitic limestones, dolomites and shales of Paleozoic age. In ascending order, they belong to the Palliser, Exshaw and Banff Formations, topped by the Rundle Group, which was named after the mountain. Mount Rundle could be considered a small mountain range as the mountain extends for more than 12 kilometres (7.5 miles) on the south side of the Trans-Canada Highway eastward from Banff to Canmore, and has seven distinct peaks. The southeasternmost of these peaks is the East End of Rundle, pictured here from the trail to Ha Ling Peak, with Whitemans Pond in the foreground.
