Not sure where you're from, but here in Seattle, while 95% of coffee shops have great coffee, only 5 % have great food. Most are getting their food from the same suppliers and it ends up not being great. Shout out to Columbia City Bakery though.

God I wish this was real, would really top the year off for me

Feel like Westlake is perfect for a cafe with the old ticket booth right there

Oh that's so cool! I've always wanted to see a huge flock of them! I've only ever seen 1 or 2 at a time, but I love how they look and how they will mimic other bird calls or other random sounds like car alarms!

I love how you made a conscious choice to make them redwing blackbirds, do you have a particular hatred or rivalry with them?

MSA of Jacksonville, at least according to Wikipedia, is kinda bonkers, going well into Georgia. But considering 90% of Duval county is in Jacksonville borders, along with 95% of the population of say my point stands. The county and city governments merged in the 60s, they're essentially the same.

Jacksonville is cheating, it's a whole county.
