Thinking of heading to KC tomorrow to see the brown booby that’s been taking the region by storm. Why are you in the middle of the country, my guy? My roommate and mother think I’m crazy wanting to drive 4 hours one way for a bird, but…

Visited a heronry yesterday and saw so many young birds! Great egrets, little blue herons, black crowned night herons, and great blue herons were all mixed in. I took this shot of a great egret coming in for a landing and was particularly happy with it #birds #birdphotos #greategret
I want to get back to posting more photos, but things have been so hectic lately. New job, getting car fixed, and dealing with my cat having to have an extended vet stay due to obstipation… I’ve been drained
My boy Killua still hasn’t pooped, according to the latest vet update. Tomorrow the doctor will evaluate him and let me know where we go from here. I just want my boy healthy and home..
I’m livid. My boy Killua has digestive problems, and a week and a half ago stopped eating, was hiding, and was straining to poop. Our normal emergency vet was overloaded, so I took him to another one in the area. After a four hour wait, I was told he just had diarrhea (he had a tiny bit). They said
Started a new job doing software validation in the biotech industry. Having to learn some microbiology while I train for work! Haha
In good things, I found out they intend to offer me the job I interviewed for last week, so that cheered me up!

Busy day yesterday. Gas service restored, car insurance claim started, prescriptions picked up, unemployment services mandatory meeting attended… and then an early night because I found out the muscle relaxer I was prescribed sets off my RLS, so my earlier nap was everything but restful.
Something poetic about the gas getting shut off as I’m getting ready to go to a job interview *sigh*
David Duchovny played a transgender woman, Denise, on Twin Peaks in 1990 and when greeting Cooper, the show's protagonist, she says, "I prefer Denise, if you don't mind" and Cooper responds with "OK" and her identity is settled within a couple seconds and was a non-issue, 36 years ago.
Always love seeing a hermit thrush, and it was chilly on this particular day, so it was in peak borb form #birds #hermitthrush
Moved our domain and now I'm having issues updating my handle. If you see this, can you let me know what handle it shows?
One of my close friends requested I get back to making more bird posts here, so I’m going to do my best. More to come soon, but for now, here’s mama and baby mourning dove (its sibling was under mom for this shot!) #birds #mourningdove
I’m looking for work again. This time, I don’t have any severance, as I was on a contract position. With today’s job market, I don’t have much hope
Fanfiction doesn’t exist to be “good” it exists because something went horribly wrong with you while you were watching a tv show and you’re gripped by madness
On the way home through my neighborhood, I pulled over to let a car pass (due to parked cars, only one could get by), when my roomie started freaking out. Just off the curb in a little dog park was this barred owl, who had just caught dinner! We just got a quick photo and moved on so he could eat ❤️
Hope everyone is prepared and will stay safe during the big winter storm this weekend! We had bitter cold here today, but I spent a couple minutes outside and got a few shots of a chilly mockingbird. Hoping to post here more this year! 🦉
Sorry I’ve gone MIA here. Fighting severe fatigue so I haven’t been out much, but I’m working with my doctor to hopefully take care of it so we’ll see. I will leave you with video of a bald eagle flying around my mom’s neighborhood before snatching a squirrel and flying off (missed the snatch!)
Someone needs to tell my mourning dove pair that it’s a little early to be thinking about nesting…
Hello, I’m not dead, just still recovering from my Japan trip and adjusting to the sudden fall weather I’ve returned to. Slowly going through photos, which are mostly of brown-eared bulbuls, but I got some good ones at least!
I got the best photo of a carrion crow yesterday. I’ll try to get it edited and uploaded tonight if I have energy (doing soooo much walking here in Japan)

Was hit by someone who ran a red light as I was making a left turn. I’m ok, but I’m worried my car is totaled. I love my little car 😭
