The last of my Osprey shots from yesterday when it was eating a meal. This one is my fave out of the three. I like the background and the light was a little less harsh.

The return of migratory birds like the White-Crowned Sparrow will be met with spring flowers!

Oh man, my sympathies. I un-fucked my external drive last month, another thing I don’t recommend.

I was so happy seeing my first Osprey hunt of the year yesterday. It flew off to a far off part of the pond for this fish, so I missed the action, but I did get to watch it eat its meal.

I would do lunch time walks a lot during my last job and got good at concentrating my time in the pockets of light shadow.

That’s how I think Bald Eagles look at me. Looking at me thinking, could I take him down?

Taken yesterday. A European robin stands upright on a mossy stone, its bright orange-red face and chest contrasting with soft grey-brown wings and a pale belly. The bird faces left with a slight tilt of the head, its thin legs visible against the rock, and a smooth green background blurred behind it.

Last capture from me today as I will be concentrating on #BirdOfTheDay

“ Walk tall, walk straight and look the world right in the eye, not the photographer.”

I think I made this most of this up, may just have heard it somewhere else. 😂 Taken yesterday. #birds #CaptionThis #ForJanet #ECK #Stunday

From ASCII to Unicode: How Computers Understand Text - Tiniaco Leyba Ever wondered why “é” sometimes shows up as “é” or why emojis break text? This a short guide to characters, Unicode, encodings, and mojibake—with Python examples you can run.

Long before #standards bodies agreed on how to encode diverse scripts and symbols, computers used incompatible character sets.

Understanding how modern systems evolved from #ASCII to #Unicode helps any developer, writer, or interested reader grasp the complexity in what looks like ordinary text.

This deer was being extremely playful last night acting like a dog with zoomies.
