Tags: birds, sometimes, comu, wish me luck, they've been a nemesis for me this county-year, tried for them several times, but no dice, still a chance I guess, I think I might try going to the santa maria river estuary in dec, they've been reported off the coast there.

Tags: birds, well, sometimes, most of the time, and there they are, wata, my photos, wandering tattler, i go out to try to see a particular bird, usually to work on my county year list, and I fail, but once in a while, i'm not even technically chasing, i just know a species should be around, and i think to myself, i bet there could be one or two of them *there*, and i go there, that was this bird this morning, this puts me at 221 for the year, i'm 3 ahead of mark, but for the record, this whole gamification of birdwatching, is deeply silly.

Tags: also, sometimes, someone hauled an upright piano, to la cumbre peak, and left it there, I wasn't the first person on the franklin trail last sunday, some non-human persons were there first, a mule deer, and what I think was probably a spotted skunk, a wee adorable cute one, that followed the trail for nearly a mile.

That is a GORGEOUS photo.

You are super kind.

Here’s another patch of flowers (Black Mustard, I think, in this case) that I saw during my hike in the burn area. They made me think of you. See if you can guess why! 😜

A New Year’s resolution I would have been very well-served to resolve upon a couple of weeks ago

Don’t be so ready to give my opinion when A) I don’t know the whole story, B) it’s none of my business.

Tags: if I've recently given you my opinion, there's a good chance I'm regretting it, I should really learn, to shut the fuck up, sometimes, the couple of people in particular I'm thinking of, probably won't read this, but if they do, I just want to tell them again, that I'm sorry, and I'm working on not doing that again.
