  2. Wrapping up at the San Diego River Mudflats. Got to see the Black Skimmers skimming which was really cool as well as see several other tern including Caspian and Elegant Terns. I took some photos and will check back to see if any Royal Terns were in the mix. There...

  3. Just finished a hot hike in the sun at Lake Hodges and added 8 more species with a list of 24. The cutest had to be the covey of California Quail which included a bunch of babies. I also heard a few Bell’s Vireos. There was also a gnatcatcher though...

  4. Starting off strong. I spent about 2 hours at Guajome Park and saw 45 species! That does not include the domestic peacocks in the neighborhood. My favorite birds I saw were the Lawrence’s Goldfinches who were feeding on the side of the trail. They are beautiful birds I don’t get...

  7. My mind is currently stuck on if I should pre-order a Pebble Round 2 smart watch. I love a good smart watch but most I’ve tried haven’t lasted more than a year and a half so I’m hesitant to try again…

  11. I’m really excited to be attending IWC SD for the third year in a row. It’s a fun time to discuss what you can do with personal websites. While there are lots of technical problems discussed, I have found that solving the online social/communal problems are just as important. Plus...

  12. How long till someone holds Uber and Lyft accountable for false advertising on estimated wait times? It seems like “1-3 minutes” is always “20-30 minutes”.

  13. 🎵 Listening to Wood by Taylor Swift. Shout out to Stefan Pettersson from Sweden for his bass playing on the song Wood. Their own records aren’t quite my style but I’m glad they were asked to contribute. Really killed it on that song. I still haven’t decided how I feel...

  14. The backlash to the NFL Bad Bunny halftime show announcement is problematic for so many reasons: Bad Bunny is a top artist with 3 Grammys and 9 nominations Bad Bunny is an avid sports fan, playing in MLB and NBA celebrity games Bad Bunny is a US citizen by birth...
