So... how’s your #Monday shaping up?

Never was interested in Geese… Was actually lying flat on my belly, waiting for the Killdeer to move when this dapper looking youngster sauntered towards me… I took this shot… but then heard a loud honk and felt a sharp prod and bite on my thigh😬 Hey.. come on…. I never went near your kid… he was the one who entered my frame… Well, you can’t reason with anyone after your have taken a photo of their kid without asking permission can you… I had to retreat rubbing my behind…

Happy Monday folks...

Black Capped Chickadee Getting Food From Its Hidey-Hole. Crazy fact: Chickadees have thousands of food caches to keep track of, and the location of these caches change every year as they form new social groups. So, to keep this really sophisticated spatial information in their little bird brains, every year fall they go through a really extreme neurogenesis, where they dump and reform about a third of their neurons. Who wouldn't like to be able to do that? They start out with new memory every fall!
