@theineptbirder.bsky.social I went to the scioto audobon metropark after work yesterday. That place is great. Only had 45 mins, so I will definitely try to go back soon.

@wiscobirder.bsky.social You going to do any group walks at Biggest Week this year? I'm going the first weekend so I won't be there when your speaking.

I'm now watching Reacher through the lens of @theferocity.bsky.social We have never met, but you've doubled my enjoyment of this show. Everytime something ridiculous happens, I think of your response.

I had a dream last night where I argued that the play Hamlet was named so because it took place in an area whose population was less than that of a village.

#birders Is there a messaging app you use to communicate with other groups of birders? If you go to a birding festival, how do you keep updated on what's being seen?
