Anyone still feeding birds?

Fingers crossed! Probably at 13ish feet up. Not quite as high as recommended but we’ll see what happens for this season.

I've always been fascinated with how the bboard handles pictures.

Thanks. What’d you do to right size them? I posted from my phone and that’s how they popped up.

I took a screenshot and rotated the resulting picture on my iMac. The computer seems to handle pictures better than my phone; gives me more control.

I could have saved the individual pictures and rotated them separately which would have probably been better, but I was, you know, lazy.

Yeah. I’ve had pictures post from my phone the right way at times but I can’t for the life of me figure out why they post right sometimes and sideways other times.

I find that (and this makes no sense) if I edit them in any way, then they post correctly. If I don't, they post sideways. So I always make a habit of cropping them, even if it's not much, and it works.

Alert to northeastern and mid-Atlantic (to Virginia) birders: expected to be a snowy owl irruption year, which means sighting possibilities.

This is so exciting. I was lucky to have about 5 visit our town last year - I posted some pics earlier in the thread. We had a number of sightings within 25 miles the last week and one about two miles away today. Going out hunting (with a camera) tomorrow morning. You are most likely to find them active at dawn and dusk and especially in beach like areas that remind them of their native tundra and are full of rabbits and similar critters.

we've seen them in past years in small gangs, like Canadian street toughs...interesting birds.

Gary Larson, is that you?

In other birds new, they aren’t real? This is a new one.

They tried to warn us in 1987 — until the commercial was banned:

I’ve tried to balance this out in the last half hour by also posting about Tom Waits, Fountains of Wayne, and Dr. Hook & the Medicine Show.

The accepted term is pan-generational, which you would know if you were a proto-millennial like me.

Well, I guess I’ll have to take down my owl box. Thanks.

You’re a late stage Xennial. De Nile is not just a river in Egypt, my friend.
