Last Winter I Stared At The Bird Feeder For Hours And Took A Bunch Of Pictures Every Time A Bird Showed

I love eating ice cream next to a fire. It’s like a race, you know? A race against time.

Chondestes grammacus - Lark Sparrow

Larus delawarensis - Ring-billed Gull

Sometimes these three would all turn their heads in the same direction at the same time. It was adorable.

Weird bird dream

Okay, so, I had a really weird dream last night that kinda turned into a nightmare. It was morning, and I woke up to the sound of a huge flock of starlings, so I got up and looked out the window and, as suspected, there was a huge flock of starlings, but then it just kept getting bigger until the sky was covered in birds. It wasn't just starlings anymore, it was crazy. The world got really dark, but once the birds passed everything seemed pretty normal. EXCEPT!!! There were all sorts of cool birds all over the place, a really rare bird came to the bird feeder, I can't really remember what it was, but it was so cool. I grabbed my camera and tried to take pictures of it. Key word: tried. My camera wasn't working and the rare bird flew away. Then I woke up feeling really disappointed.

@theuniversalchild You're such a great friend, I'm so glad we got to bird together today. We saw so many cool birds!

@teaformybee my bird friend birding for owls. What a great lady!

My desk spider has disappeared, the fruit fly population in my room has skyrocketed.

This is the jumping spider that lives on my desk. It just caught a fruit fly.

Mourning Dove

Right after I took this photo, they both flew off.
