This is Charing Cross Road, St Giles Circus, London, taken by Wolfgang Suschitzky, in 1935.
The Astoria then was a movie theater, later a famous live music venue, torn down in this century (sniffle) in order to enlarge the Underground station.
One or two search results called it an African Bee-Eater. I read as much as I could handle of wordy and almost but not quite identical descriptions of Bee-Eaters…
In another Lewis Carrolian naming convention, the differences lie in tiny patches of color here or there… My eyes were glazing over.
But I do believe the rusty feathers on its head distinguish it from the African, and the lack of blue markings means it’s not a blue Bee-eater, and the Arabian Bee-Eater has… um…. ZZZZZZZZZZzzzzzzzzz….m
…. «pop» ….schnork… um.. uh… where was I?
.. er…
Oh… and I bet that bee(wasp?)’s whole life is flashing before its eyes.

Robert Altman’s multi Academy Award nominated US American black comedy war film M*A*S*H which premiered 25th of January 1970, at the Baronet Theatre in NYC

The appropriately named Asian Bee-Eater, AFAIK.

“Look, Mom! I’m a ballerina!”
Yes… I was about to say that this tiny dancer is a 6-week-old baby macaque, or snow monkey, at the Milwaukee Zoo.
This was about 10 years ago… they were very happy because it was the first successful birth of a macaque in their breeding program.

Strange… Not only are bones and eyes repeated, the first bones one is the lower part of the liver entry, above…
When it repeats, that stuff has been removed.
And what medication is that gut hating, and what’s in the little packets?
I have other questions, like why your joints hate sausages, and your eyes hate candy… But that’ll do for now.

Hah! Maybe Nessie threatened that guy, or paid him to say it was fake.
What with all the new technology, she’s afraid of being discovered, and wanted a distraction.

find the bucket and the spade
I don’t think it’s a spoiler to tell you that they apparently mean a shovel, not a â™ .

This is why you read to them, from before they’re born till as old as they’ll sit still for it .
A love of books and reading is something to cherish and nurture.

Where’s the Roc? I’ll bet it has a grip of at least 1000 PSI. Just the same, I wouldn’t want any of these guys pictured to grab hold of me! Ouch!
