PSA New Target birds are out.
The three new ones joined the family tonight. They are roosting with the rest of the Valentine’s Day birds and trees on the mantel.
Decorated for Christmas with Target birds. Mondrian bird house ski village, lining the mantle and the “sexy frog” has gotten into the action.
I finished season 3 of For All Mankind in Apple TV+.
It’s an alternate history of what happened if the Soviet Union won the space race.
It lives and breathes in the world of danger and drama of astronaut life on and off world. I really enjoyed it.
We got a bread maker from a thrift store that is basically new in the box.
But it came with a 250GB hard drive…
I hope it’s full of bread recipes.
Took an inexplicable open space between a bathroom and my office and built a wall. Now we are adding shelves on each side.
Office gets a Billy bookcase (because it fit perfectly) and the bathroom gets a Eket drawer (both IKEA) and custom built shelves because nothing is square.
The sky was lovely tonight.
Tonight is for cake. Dolly Parton banana pudding cake.
Sorry, you are too tall to ride this ride.
Who are airplanes designed for?
It’s not for someone 6'5". It’s not for someone a foot shorter.
These gentlemen decided to cool off under our trees in the back yard most of the day.
Peace Lilly in bloom this morning.
Some days need to start slow with a bunny munching greens in the yard.
Gold Finches are pure joy.
I saw three goldfinches in the back yard today. This fine fellow is from earlier this week as this morning’s trio were too quick to capture.
Seeing them is always a treat that brightens my day. It’s a job to play “is that a bird or a bloom?”
Podcast listening stats. In reply to @chrisjwilson’s post about listening stats
My listening has taken a huge hit in the past 18 months without much time in the car. I used to have a 60-90 minute commute each way. So I’ve spent many hours of quality audio time with podfriends.
This albino rock pigeon has been hanging out in my neighborhood for a few days. I always see it at the same house.
We have plenty of mourning doves but rarely do we see pigeons. And even more rare to see a white one.
On the bird front, our bright yellow flowers have attracted Gold Finches! I could not be more pleased.
