We had a freezing rain ice storm overnight here. The birds were everywhere and starving because they couldn't get to the feeders because they were covered in ice, and I bet all of their natural food is also covered in ice. I went outside and broke all the ice off their feeders and gave them double the food today. They have swarmed my backyard and are super active eating all of the food. It warms my heart.
@anaisfae I just got the bird art in the mail, and wow! It's really great! So detailed. Can't wait to frame it and hang it! The crow is also really cool. It feels like something a fortune teller would give me. Maybe there's a crow friend in my future? Thanks so much!
Neat film about The Bird Genoscape Project, where researchers collect bird feathers so they can sequence DNA to map out where different populations of birds migrate. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_p43ksRgIlk
My buddy Alex went to Florida on vacation and brought back this coconut he found in a parking lot. He didn't know that the "nut" was actually a much smaller brown thing inside the husk, so I decided to de-husk the coconut to show him: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T8g0M5QVbUE
We did eat the coconut after I opened it, but it wasn't that flavorful. Maybe parking lots aren't the best place to find coconuts?
