    I was about 70% sure that this thread was the new underground. Kind of like having a file folder on your hard drive called "Typical Work Stuff: nothing to see here".

    It's actually birds and bird photography though. hmm.

    also saw a killdeer chick - he was so cute running around, "cheep"-ing and mom chasing after him :laugh: he's still all downy feathers but has the same coloration as the adults. was kinda comical watching him run around with his stubby little tail, and stubby little naked wings...

    Damn, that was fast!
    I wonder how my red-tailed chick is up at my project site. I haven't been there in a week and a half, but I'm going back on Wednesday. It'll be interesting to see the development!

    Been a Barred Owl hanging around the last few days , I always know where to find him , I just follow all the racket from the Robins trying to run him off .

    Today there was about 4 Robins yelling at him and he was in an old mossy maple tree in the creekbed with his eyes closed having a snooze , lol

    I watched him for about 20 minutes
