Landing

Posted on July 6, 2022

Osprey landing
This osprey is landing into the wind. By spreading its wings, it creates drag to slow down. Too much drag would make it suddenly drop. So, it opens its wing feathers to allow enough air to pass through to land correctly.

A Well trained horse

Posted on July 4, 2022

Horse comes to a stop as part of calf roping.
After roping the calf, this cowboy’s horse has come to a complete stop. This allows the rope that is connected to the calf to become taut. The cowboy can then capture, flip over the calf and tie its legs together in a minimal time.
