Brown-Hatted Chirper I’ve got a good stash of chipping sparrow photos (Spizella passerina)—plenty worth sharing every few days or so. This particular one had wandered into my chickadee folder, misfiled but not forgotten. If you enjoy photos of birds and other wildlife, take a look at my photo gallery. Sparrows are never overlooked—they're a valued and important part of my collection. Feel free to explore!

Good morning. 🪿🪿🪿 10 January 2026 Charlie and I skipped our Friday walk yesterday because the forecast called for imminent rain—rain that kept drifting farther and farther to the right on the hourly chart. I think it finally did show up at some point, but I was probably napping. I’ll pick up the rhythm again on Monday. I’ve said before that once you’re retired, there’s not much that truly has to be done right away. “Tomorrow” becomes a perfectly acceptable time to get things done. Tomorrow! Tomorrow! I love ya Tomorrow! You’re always a day away — from the musical Annie 🎶 I’d call it a three‑day weekend starting yesterday, but we had another new stove delivered, so I suppose it counts as a regular day. Not that we get new stoves every day. Well… we did for two days in a row, but we sent the first one back. I don’t expect any more stove deliveries for a while. We do have a new microwave coming next week, though. It’s funny how technology weasels its way into our lifestyles, isn’t it? We lived for decades without a microwave—or even the idea of one—and now it feels like a near necessity. I usually make ramen by tossing everything into a bowl with some water and popping it into the microwave, which is exactly what I was doing when I discovered ours had given up the ghost. I set it for eight minutes, watched the light come on and the tray spin dutifully around, and when I opened the door… the bowl was still cold. I had to cook it the old-fashioned way on the stovetop. So very 20th Century. “The time you enjoy wasting is not wasted time.” — Bertrand Russell “Never put off till tomorrow what may be done day after tomorrow just as well.” — Mark Twain “Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic.” — Arthur C.

A Return to the Sky This is a Brown Pelican (Pelecanus occidentalis) shortly after plunging into the ocean. Now airborne again, it’s climbing to an altitude where it can resume hunting. I chose this photo because it clearly shows the pelican’s short tail—a detail often overlooked in flight. If you enjoy wildlife and nature photography, check out my photo gallery here:

Universe of a Turtle This is a photo of a forest-fringed lake, with elephant ears lining the shore. If I look closely, I can see a turtle perched on a log near the center of the water, almost camouflaged among the reflections of the trees.
