Annoying my wife chasing down birds when we're supposed to be sightseeing. I maintain birds count as sights.

Another hummingbird. As I was getting this guy, I could hear another buzzing right by my ear keeping an eye on me. #birds #coloradosprings #birdwatching

I found a local hummingbird garden. There were tons of these guys, and they were very comfortable with me setting up my camera. #birds #explore #coloradosprings

Hummingbird feeding at a red flower. Head on.

It's called a helicopter, and it's much more dangerous than you'd think

House finch nibbling berries. Apparently they are MUCH brighter in CO. I keep being certain they must be something else.

As a Canada Day special, Stealing from Wizards Volume 1 (kindle edition) is free this week! 🍁

So I guess it's also a 'Merica day special if you go in for that sort of thing.

Found family and felonies, magic and misfits, what more can you want on this holiday weekend?

One of my favorite things about moving is it's an easy way to get new lifers.

Oh yeah, I get it. I was saying this isn't a case where you have to look at nuanced indicators of possible AI. It's a case where you can look at it and immediately say, "oh yeah, that's AI". It's like those tiktoks about how to tell if a car has been in an accident
