Oh, no. I forgot to post my "Good morning" picture this morning.
Oh well, it's morning somewhere, right?

Good morning then.

Y'all have a good evening.

(and this is not even the most beautiful part of the sky, the most beautiful part is over ugly buildings, I need to find a decent spot to show it to you one of these days)

Except that she's not walking her dog at all, she just wanders aimlessly and slowly in the part of the park where I usually see the crows in the morning and only that part (when she walks her dog, she starts with the park, but doesn't stay long there and […]

#crowupdate I went home a little early today and I got to spend some "quality time" with the crows. Because, I thought I was imagining things, but now I'm more and more convinced that the neighbor is trying to "crowblock" me. She usually walks her dog (and […]

On a side note, I also ran into "crow-by-the-sea" this morning. There was only one juvenile left (it means nothing) and I'm always surprised how unscared of me the adult is, especially compared to Mr and Ms Crow, who only rarely let me walk that close to them […]

Good morning Mr Crow. So... about that fish on my balcony, you don't think you could do something about it?

#crowupdate The whole family yesterday morning.
Yes, Kiddo is still here, but only in the mornings, I believe and I'm pretty sure it has to do with the neighbor still feeding them in the morning.
Worse, lately, she's been kind of weird. She saw me giving them […]

Mini #crowupdate I went for a walk this morning, in the "by-the-sea" territory. There was a crow in the small park, but it didn't react to my peanuts and soon left (I guess that park has become a neutral zone and not part of the territory anymore). But a […]

Myaku-Myaku lives!!! On my campus!!!!

This weekend is my university's yearly festival. Preparations are underway, and in a hall, the booth that was at the Osaka Expo was recreated. My university is not really known for anything, except maybe the development […]

A minute later, Mr and Ms Crow are eating their peanuts.

They got a bigger serving than usual, as it was raining and didn't feel like going on the balcony when I woke up this morning)

That's all for now.

Mini #crowupdate.

This morning.

Mr Crow to me "so, you're coming or not?"

This is what he does some mornings when he's already on the ground and sees me (see the update from a few days ago). Although this morning, he only did this after the first serving of peanuts.

Mini #crowupdate

Yesterday morning:

Me: "Kiddo? Why the hell are you still here? Don't you have people your age to hang out with or something?"

Kiddo: "Food..."

Yes, Kiddo is still here most mornings. I assume it's the neighbor's food that does that. Also […]

Hello Mr Crow. Nothing special these past few days, except that Kiddo still regularly shows up (but s/he's not here all the time) including right now as I'm typing these lines (on another pole near mom).

Okay, here is the thing. While I was in […]

In other news, tonight I stayed on campus until dusk and... apparently the buildings next to mine (mine too?) have become a gathering spots for quite a few crows (basically they all come from different areas of town, and gather there before all flying […]

Micro #crowupdate (that's difficult to say out loud). I hadn't seen the #crows since Saturday, and they didn't seem to have been around at all (peanuts on my balcony were untouched). But this morning Mr Crow was there, in the rain. And he was calling Ms Crow […]

On the day Windows 10 died, I received my Mini-PC. That thing is so small, I can't believe it. (human hand for scale, I don't have a banana at the moment)

I won't set it up just yet, but soon (I'm starting to find myself with many computers and not enough […]

#setouchitriennale update: Tonight, two ferries were running from #naoshima to Takamatsu. The "Seto" and the "Naoshima" (that's the ferry's name). It's true that I hadn't seen the latter in a little while. Did it have a technical problem? No idea.

Anyway […]

That is Ms Crow literally diving from that small pole, she usually only spreads her wings two meters or so from the ground to use them as a parachute. I wish I could film it one day, but I would need someone to help me with the peanuts. Maybe one day. ⤵️

That is take a picture of Mr and Ms Crow flying from their pole down to the park. Check this out.

And wait, there's more. While Mr Crow directly landed in the park, Ms Crow landed on a smaller pole in the park (maybe she didn't see where her peanut was) and […]

Good morning.
What a beautiful morning today. Temperatures are decent (20°C when I woke up, a bit higher now) no humidity. Real early autumn weather (but it'll be September weather again soon).
