Faunascrolling--what's visiting where you are?

My first thought was do bugs use computation until I realized you probably meant do they count toward the topic. Duh!
Birds definitely count objects and arrange them by color.
Birds have so much to recommend them. I don't know why I never developed any particular affinity for them.
I believe mosquitos count as bugs and should be living in a circle of hell instead of the more usual places
I believe the park owner has decided another way to line his pockets is to cut down or eliminate bug spray. The mowing machines used to spray pesticide and no longer do it.
He's also saving money by not having the maintenance crews edge and trim.
There's nothing glorious about it but I weeded the rock beds today so the place can look its best after they install the new roof on Friday.

Wow! Beautiful!

Saw two Monarchs over the weekend. They're here!

I set up my Birdfy camera today. It's pretty cool. I like having just the camera; I can move it around easily. For now I mounted the camera to a piece of PVC pipe and stuck the pipe in a bucket of dirt. I can move the bucket around to my various bird baths to see which one I want to have under surveillance.
The sale price, with a coupon, was less than $80. The sale is over and it seems to be back to its "regular" price of $110. I don't know if the same LAGO15 code still works.
Will post a photo or video when somebody interesting shows up. Right now it's robins, house sparrows, and blue jays.

Ants. Carpenter ants. Just got some gel bait today and surrounded the house with diatomaceous earth.

Same here. Flying carpenter ants. Seem to have nested in our front window sill. Powdered and baited outside and in, I've had to cordon off our front room killing field the from puppy.
Outside I just spotted a yellow butterfly which flew off, likely a Brimstone

We have baby bunnies every year. Squirrels too.
Weirdly enough we have a squirrel this year with a ringed tail. I think aq racoon got hold of mom.

Until yesterday I had never seen Bighorn Sheep in New Mexico. We saw this group of females and young wandering on the edge of the gorge at the Rio Grande Gorge bridge just north of Taos.

Oh I regularly see the adult...
