Picture of the day!
Spent the last couple of days trying to do a wireless bridge for my netcams. Here is a picture from each of the two in the front of the house. They are working great, wirelessly.

Picture of the day!
I hate to make this about the bird in my backyard, but . . .
I was doin' yard work most of the day, since it was the first nice day in a week. As I was finishing up, I heard a low noise. In our backyard there are a lot of birds, at times it can be deafening. So I turn around and there is this Mallard, just a couple feet away, eating the dropped birdseed under the feeders. I started taking pictures and getting closer. I finally just left him alone and went about my business. He stayed there the whole time, and then I got real close and he flew away.

Picture of the day!
Woke up this morning to see a splash of orange. I grabbed a better set of binoculars. By setting the focus with them up to my eyes, and then holding them up against my phone, I can get a picture that is actually in focus. The oriole was a much brighter orange.

Tried something different. Held one side of a cheap pair of binoculars up to the camera on my phone. Check this out. The spring bird migration has begun. Finches, grossbeaks, tons of weird sparrows, orioles, and even a hummingbird. This is a goldfinch. Just a touch out of focus, but not bad?

Wouldn't it be nice if I could remember to take a picture of something in my life everyday and post it here. Well, here is a picure. Its is of a very tame sparrow that feeds off of our window feeder.
