Day 076!

Friday, March 17, 2023

The Hummingbird has produced offspring!  Here is one of them. A bit closer (same photo). And I got some equipment I have been meaning to for a long time.  That Kingfisher video I took of him beating the fish on the branch pushed me over the edge!  And in the few times since I got […]

Day 2023011!

Thursday, January 12, 2023

I stopped down at the local watering hole, which is directly below the RV park we are staying in, and was shooting some Mergansers, when I spied a smaller bird on a limb… He was thumping that not-so-little fish pretty good.  You can hear it if you turn the volume up!

Saturday, January 1, 2022

Here is another eagle photo.  This one is clipped from a 4K video I took of it.  It is a 100% crop (actual resolution as taken, cropped down).  The first one is without editing. Pretty good quality for a video sample. ~Curtis in /\/\onTana! {!-{>

Day 363

Monday, December 31, 2018

The Dailylife Daughter #1 makes decorated tumblers.  She asked me to make a turner, so I did and gave it to her for Christmas…but I didn’t take any photos of it!  So these are all the DD#1’s. Basically it is a shaft on a motor (with a blazing speed of 3.5 to 5 RPM!) set […]

Day 364

Friday, December 29, 2017

On the next to the last day of the year we revisit the laser beams!  It is -11F and slightly snowing, so the laser beams show up without me breathing on them. Laser beams, but still no frickin’ sharks. For the video click this link: Day1736403. *** Coming up soon: Cool science experiments with soap bubbles, […]
