    The scale was for the owl.

  • Update:

    The saw-whet owl we triaged a couple days ago was transferred to Cape Ann Wildlife, Inc for further care. She had two broken bones and is pictured here showing off her new wrap that will hTep steady her wing while it heals.

  • 'Ominous Owl'

    An embassy of owls stared down at the little hazel pixie 'What is it that you seek?' They hooted somberly, with all six pairs of unblinking, golden eyes fixed upon her.

    That took some digging! She has a ton of bautiful and whimsical stuff though, so it was worth it!

  • I do too. I see some people try to say they're used as part of their camouflage, but they seem way too small for that. I think they're more for emoting. They do help with looking angry and surprised!

  • The slowness is a little better now that I know it isn't me. We just don't have a large enough userbase to even out whatever causes the slump for a lot of people here.

    I do wish we had a more passionate commenting culture by now. Or at least some more on fun topics. I know people are still here, because they're all over the grumpy news and politics threads! 😅 I don't know if I want that particular crowd in here, but there's always people saying they want politic and US news free spaces, but I like to think we have something for everyone here and very minimal politics, so where are they at?!

    I'm still having fun, but I post here to interact with you all. I can read by myself all I want already. Growing the community and learning about you all and where you're all from and your languages and cultures is what I like to get back in exchange for the owl goodness. Nobody needs to be a subject expert to talk with me here. Ask all the noob questions you want, make a joke, make a reference, I like just about all of it as long as you're here to have fun.

    I'm excited to be going back to the animals. Still waiting for my rabies titer so I can handle those animals, so hopefully that comes soon so I can hold raccoons and foxes. Also still need to finalize some ideas for my owl station at open house.

    I got diagnosed with pretty bad sleep apnea in January. I was falling asleep at work and getting scarily tired while driving, and I just haven't had much energy for my hobbies, so I've been falling behind on my music and planning for the event. Everyone is really dragging their feet on getting me my CPAP so I can actually sleep, so that's been making everything extremely difficult. Hopefully in the next couple weeks that will be handled and I can get back in the swing of things.

    Well, I didn't mean to talk so much, but no one else is listening, so apologies on taking it all out on you! 😇

  • Nobody Here But Us Pine Spruce Cones 👀

  • Huh, we always just called them all pine trees. Thanks for getting me to look up the difference! I'll have to pay more attention next time I come across one.

    For anyone else that may not be aware:

    From Fine Gardening

    Telling the difference among conifers can be tricky. To me, they are all Christmas trees. But calling them such doesn't really mark me as a discerning gardener. There is, however, a quick way to tell these three common conifers apart.

    Look for the number of needles that come out of the same spot on a twig. If a twig bears needles in groups of two, three, or five, you can safely call it a pine. If the twig carries its needles singly, it's a good bet you've got a fir or a spruce. Pull off a needle, and roll it between your fingers. If it feels flat and doesn't roll easily, it's a fir. If the needle has four sides and, thus, rolls easily between your fingers, it's a spruce.

    There looks to be much more differences between cones, so I'll save that for another day! 😅
