    We went for a hike on the West Circle trail in the Hyde Memorial State Park a couple of miles north of our house in Santa Fe. Back at the ranger station, a group of Flycatchers were doing their thing. At first they were a bit stand-offish, but as they got used to me they came closer. That, plus a 300mm telephoto ... 😊

                What does your aerial do? Doesn’t look like the ones for TV to me. FM?

                  It gets terrestrial/freeview TV.
                  I ended our Sky satellite sub so we're using the old aerials plus free digital channels through the sky broadband.

                      I love the sound of the Wood Thrush in the grove behind our house ...

                          This little guy has made a little hollow under my red twig dogwood. He likes snipping off the stems of plants and leaving them without eating them. So, you know, basically an a$$hole. Good thing he's cute.
