I'm in California for the week visiting family and spent a bit of time today taking pictures of birds I don't get to see back in South Dakota. Hoping to get some California Quail shots at some point while I'm here. #birds

While stopping for lunch during the local CBC, we found this Cooper's Hawk had also stopped for lunch lol. #birds #raptors

Found this Townsend's Solitaire during the CBC for my city this afternoon. Pretty rare to find these guys this far east, only the second report of one for the county. Lifer! #birds

I've been daily driving Linux for about 2 weeks now and if it wasn't for needing Lightroom(darktable and rawtherapee suck so bad) I'd just delete my Windows partition lol.

On top of the already free Cheesy Gordita Crunch from app points that I ordered with my Quesarito from Taco Bell today, they accidentally gave me a second free Cheesy Gordita Crunch for free. Just thought it was important to announce.

while not anywhere as dramatic as the dance that the Gary tornado did, the Henry tornado from 7-27-2025 also did a bit of a dance for a bit - SDS running hot right now

Weirdest snowflakes I've ever seen lol.

Honestly embarrasing to Windows how much snappier and faster Linux is. If I wasn't a gamer I'd just jump ship to Mac at this point.
I have now set up Linux dual boot(opted for CachyOS) on both my gaming PC and my media PC that exists solely for replacing smart TV functions because Windows is significantly too insufferable now.

I've walked past this tree probably hundreds of times while out birding and everytime I see it I always think to myself "Man that would be a great spot for a screech owl", and while out this morning I finally caught one in it with its meal from last night. My first red morph! #birds #raptors

Just after sunset isn't exactly my preferred shooting environment, but Short-eared Owls don't care. First one of the season, and pretty damn close to home too so hopefully I'll get plenty more shots of it. #birds #raptors

First day of winter definitely feels like it up here today.

7 years ago today I chased one of the most unique tornado outbreaks that I've ever chased in Central Illinois, having seen nearly 10 tornadoes on one chase while snow was still on the ground in places. It is the only day I've seen tornadoes in December and will probably remain so. #weather

Thankful for all the tornadoes and owls I got to see this year.

I do believe we have a @brendonme.bsky.social alert in progress

Good to see that the full-time chasers still think red traffic lights don't apply to them.

If you want to see just how baddly the dials are cranked to the right on the twitter algorithm though, just make a fresh account. Nothing but right-wing blue check grifting.
Forgot to log back into my twitter account after disabling before the permanent deletion kicked in after 30 days lol. Remade to hold onto the handle since NWS ABR actually takes my reports from Twitter and that's their preferred method of reporting.
