We incubated more Quail eggs, out of 29, we got ten chicks that are now almost two weeks old. Some of the eggs I used were sitting on the counter for nearly a month, so I’m sure that’s why the low hatch rate. #birds #birdsofbluesky #quail

I’m now the proud caretaker of a Kenwood TS-690S. Fully loaded. I’m enjoying this radio quite nicely. I can add 6 meters into the mix now. #hamradio #kenwood

Update on the hen pecked Quail rooster. He’s gaining more feathers by the day. He’s looking so much better, but still has a long way to go.

Moved the radios around. Pardon the post move mess.

The Yaesu got moved across the room and got wall mounted with the control head on one of the monitors.

The Kenwood is staying where it is in anticipation of upgraded/newer equipment to play with.

Say hello Alfie. This pretty bird is nearly 50 and lives with my parents. This was a rare moment where he was in the cage. We've had him since I was a teenager (30+ years ago). He does talk, whistle, make random noises. He's hilarious and very much a member of the family. #Birds #parrot

Nice clean install in the Jeep. Someone removed the overhead console before I bought the Jeep, leaving the gaping hole between the visors. Made the perfect spot to hang the QYT 980D. #hamradio

I was cleaning the cage and this little one was yelling at me the entire time. #birds #quail

We have one isolated bird due to him being picked on by the others. He’s already regrowing feathers, but doesn’t like being alone. Sorry buddy, we need you fully feathered and healthy. #addbirder #birds #quail

Certainly an interesting day here. It’s turned north, towards Tokeland/Grayland/North Cove area. Our warning for this area has expired.

Currently monitoring my local radio network (Beachnet) for any ARES activations.
