This tiger camouflage would make sense if this plane was flying over the desert. Did it fly?

Mig 21U (the trainer version).

Exactly!

if this plane was flying over the desert. Did it fly?

Yes, it flew over Błędowska Desert! the only one we have in Poland.

Nope. Ostrich eggs are rounder. :):)

What bridge is this ?
The grey structure on the left should be a clue.

@johnny reb

As you're always telling everyone, stay on topic. This thread is for Poland in photo riddles, not the US.

The U.S. but Karen is right, we must stay on topic because she could never guess this one.

goose eggs then

Yes, they are oval like a rugby ball.

What bridge is this ?

International bridge in Michigan. Easy. :):):)

Connecting Michigan with Canada

This tiger camouflage would make sense if this plane was flying over the desert.

It could have been painted that way simply for safety purposes or for special events.

In the case of this particular version of the MiG being used as a trainer the bright and contrasting color scheme would make it visually stand out better if it ever crashed anywhere on the Polish landscape.

NATO countries hold "Tiger Meets," multinational exercises and professional exchanges where participating aircraft, including those from Poland, are painted with tiger patterns.

Some Polish air squadrons traditionally used "flying tigers" as emblematic mascots since their first founding. I couldn't find any explicit explanation for this choice of mascot but it might be related to the historical use of animal furs by Polish hussars, who wore fur over their armor. While leopards are commonly cited, there are also historical depictions of tigers being used.

What can you see?

I presume that is snow in the background? It doesn't look like anything for snow clearing though.

I honestly have no idea. The teeth on whatever it is reminds me of old hunting traps but no way is it anything like that.
OP pawian  221 | 25662

Yes, there is snow.

The teeth on whatever it is reminds me of old hunting traps

Me, too.

Hint: this device is not manufactered industrially, it is a self made invention.

Besides, it is fixed on a vehicle. What for?
Feniks  1 | 609

it is fixed on a vehicle.

Presumably on the back?

Is it to mark out areas on the ground? Can't think why though.
OP pawian  221 | 25662

Not on the back but on the side. And it is fastened neatly so it can`t move.

See it at a distance.

So this thing is for cleaning mud off your boots when you get off. Am I right?

Not exactly. But you are close.

Even closer. Boots and get in (or rather on) are correct.
Alien  24 | 5891
10 Aug 2024   #420
Even closer

If it's not snow, then there's mud from the field.
