Maybe a Ruby-throated hummingbird (found in the eastern ½ of the United States, Florida being one of the states)

After viewing several of the sites you posted I think I have found her here (bottom picture):

The males have a ruby throat, the females don’t.

Thank you.

It's a ruby-throated. A dozen or so would commit suicide every year attacking reflections of themselves in windows at my friend's house in PA, and he would go out and sadly collect the little bodies for examination. Tried hanging things in the window to get them to stop, to little avail. My family lived just down the road, but for some reason at our house it was not hummingbirds but the male cardinals would do the same thing. Among birds the males of the species are often more beautiful than females, but otherwise their survival instinct leaves as much to be desired as the more plain males of other classes of animal.

It's a detail from this construction :

It's a 'mangosteen building' that should be used as a tourist center in Moo Ban Kiriwong, near Nakhorn Si Tammarat> I'm curious to see it finished, as it's supposed to have leaves and branch on the top too !

One mag jams after 19 rounds, the other after 21.

what calibre? 22?

maybe the springs are fooked mate, tried looking online for spare mags? could get them delivered to laos from china then pick them up from there ( i would imagine....

)

Standard 762.
The manufacturer doesn't exist any more.
Went out of business in 1989.
Have tried a Lancaster mag, but that falls out if you knock the gun.
Bit like early SA 80.

thinking about it, might be heat expansion causing the jams, tried giving it a good clean and maybe file down some of the rougher edges?

Here are 3 different shots of three different trees that I think are Gulmohar Trees.

This first tree is located on Samersan on the way out to the Thai NAvy Port at Sattahip.

This below second shot is in the same general area but of a different tree.

and this below third shot is on Eastern Star Resort/Golf Course grounds on perimiter road at the North end of the golf course/driving range.

From my brief stop over in Amsterdam on Thursday.

**The Fresh Prince** · 03-04-2010, 03:56 PM

^Probably a fake.

**Bobcock** · 03-04-2010, 04:05 PM

why you say dat Prince?

**The Fresh Prince** · 03-04-2010, 05:31 PM

Just jokin because of this thread.

https://teakdoor.com/world-news/68230...rdam-fake.html (Most beer sold as Heineken in Amsterdam is Fake)

**Bobcock** · 03-04-2010, 05:40 PM

Here's another one.....

I had a single Heineken on draft whilst there, it was very different to Thai Heineken. Less sweet, fresher tasting. I did drink a fair few belgian Beers and was in fact quite pissed when I got on the plane.

**patsycat** · 03-04-2010, 06:22 PM

Belgian beers can be quite lethal. La Mort Subite comes to mind. Tastes like fruit juice but has a kick like a great big dinasour sized mule.

**jizzybloke** · 03-04-2010, 08:00 PM

We normally go with a group of us and order each others drinks, it does get a bit messy sometimes

It's got everything you want in a beer, the good, the bad and the ugly!
