I wanted a birding adventure game & there weren't any.
Nearly 4 years into building this now. FT job, a toddler & a baby make it a marathon. But day by day we're getting closer...

Feather Trail is on Steam & you can wishlist it: store.steampowered.com/app/2857180/...

I have patiently reaped what I’ve sown and waited for my chickens to come home to roost. And I’ve finally saved up enough for a down payment on a brand new petard. Gonna hoist my ass up onto the barn roof and finally fix that leak

We were back in Kent for the weekend, and it was good to walk round Elmley and Stodmarsh again. Elmley is very dry at the moment but Stodmarsh seems have 'weathered' the dry weather well. Beardie from Stodmarsh this morning. #StodmarshNR

I think I lean pine warbler for this— dunno where you are but these pics are tough lol
- general impression: big for warbler
- no streaking, yellow breast to white undertail
- white on outer 4 tail feathers (all pics) black rest of tail (pic 2)
face contrast is stark but maybe just blame the phone?

I’m grateful I had the high school MySpace Top 8 to be taught this lesson in a straightforward if brutal manner

Roseate spoonbills will splash their wings through the water as part of their beauty routine. Here's one doing so mid-splash, facing straight ahead towards the camera. I really love this shot. #birds
