I've been slowly working through this year's Advent of Code solely in R (an insanely inefficient choice, I know) in my free time as a challenge. I'm sending my solutions to my neglected github: github.com/tfaits/Adven...
I just completed Day 13 - AoC 2024 #AdventOfCode adventofcode.com/2024/day/13

This is a Hen of the Woods, an edible mushroom that grows by the base of older oaks/maples in October. It doesn't have dangerous lookalikes, making it one of the safer (and most delicious) mushrooms to forage in New England. I fry it in butter until just crispy. #foraging #mushroom #henofthewoods

Advent of Code Day 6: Patrol Path

#AdventOfCode

When Herbert is *really* comfortable, he'll sleep on his back without even holding on to our fingers. #Birb #Parrot #Conure #Naptime #RainbowChicken

Herbert is exceptionally cuddly after a bath

Birds who are not my bird. There was a nest of baby Robin's in a local plant store's greenhouse. They were ery hungry and very sleepy.

Herbert is quite the acrobat when it suits him. He's working hard to get a cashew out of that toy.

Eventually, I will post things about my research (I work with brain organoids to study early neurodevelopment), but for now I'm going to post a bunch of pictures of my green-cheeked conure, Herbert.
