          While waiting for my flight home from Zagreb airport a two ship of Croatian Air Force Mig-21's taxied past and took off, sadly too quite for a photo but they were wearing a very smart low-vis paint scheme with checkerboard tailfins.

            Yesterday, I was gardening, and heard a slow but loud noise building from the west, and then right overhead, an Avro Anson. Never seen one before. Some hours later from a south east direction a Mustang. It made a nice whine / whistle as it went over.

              A bee, on a mission buzzed in and made a perfect landing on a leaf looked around and decided to leave via the leaf. Took off in true VSTOL Harrier style and buzzed off and made its way to its next mission.


              Found out later it was named Honey with the distinguishing markings BEE.

                The Avro Anson is due to display at Cosford along with a Mustang, did you happen to catch if the Mustang had Sharkmouth markings?

                  Unusual make of aircraft, British Entomology Engineering, but a bit more popular in the summer months.
