When my wireless network goes on the fritz, adding another WiFi node fixes it. Then I remove it a few days later and there’s no instability 🤷♂️ It’s like Ativan for my network
Only 9am and already there’s an inch of rain for the day! Gotta pump the closed basin in our backyard again (it’s a couple meters from the house) #CaWx
Overnight rain total was 1.25”. That’s quite good for the Sacramento Valley! #CaWx

Some ducks had a bad hair day yesterday on account of the wind. These may have been Mergansers #Ducks #CommonMerganser #Birds #Fujifilm #SuperCropped
The new Dawn dish soap scent is… intense. And therefore bad. Didn’t they think of the poor oil sullied ocean critters??
~M5.7 earthquake just happened southeast of Reno, NV. I did not feel it but of course my Raspberry Shake did. #Earthquake #RaspberryShake 
A stunning clear day today. Here’s Mt. Lassen from the Black Butte Dam. Quite the change from burn pile smoke of the last several days 
A nice, if breezy, day at Black Butte Reservoir. It was not great for bird watching… unless you prefer seagulls and vultures

USGS reports a M6.6 off Cape Mendocino. Here’s my seismograph curtesy of Raspberry Shake. Be sure to log a Did You Feel It at the USGS site. #CaWx #Earthquake

A very grim story - it doesn’t candy coat the great human tragedy of airplane crashes: “Chaos in the Clouds: The Crash of TWA Flight 514 and Its Lasting Impact on NoVA”
Our first frost! And so the birds are having a lousy morning (re)discovering frozen water #Birds 🪶 
November 26 and we’ve already heard Last Christmas.
I nearly forgot to show-off this Ruby-crowned Kinglet that foraged in our backyard today. It loved the asparagus fronds, sweet basil, and grapes. It’s quite the rare to see their full crown! #RubyCrownedKinglet #Birds #Fujifilm #SOoC 🪶
