Seanbirds Posted August 25, 2022 Share Posted August 25, 2022 I just now randomly mis-read "King Rail" as "Big deal" ? Well, it fits! King Rails are a pretty big deal, at least here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lonestranger Posted August 26, 2022 Share Posted August 26, 2022 I was going to point out that @Charlie Spencer's post count is so high because it takes him an extra 2-3 posts to explain his jokes and word association jests. Then I got to thinking of the effort he puts forth and realized the sheer number of posts shows just how hard he really tries, and that deserves praise, not ridicule. I give @Charlie Spencer a big E for effort, and another e for entertainment value. Keep "Working on it" Charlie Spencer. ? 1 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seanbirds Posted August 28, 2022 Share Posted August 28, 2022 Here's a terrible joke I found ? One day a man was walking in the woods when he got lost. For two days he roamed around trying to find a way out. He had not eaten anything during this period and was famished. Over on a rock ledge he spotted a bald eagle. He killed it, and started to eat it. Surprisingly, a couple of park rangers happen to find him at that moment, and arrested him for killing an endangered species. In court, he pleads innocent to the charges against him, claiming that if he didn't eat the bald eagle he would have died from starvation. The judge ruled in his favor. In the judge's closing statement he asked the man, "I would like you to tell me something before I let you go. I have never eaten a bald eagle, nor ever plan on it, but what did it taste like?" The man answered, "Well, it tasted like a cross between a whooping crane and a spotted owl!" 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SirVive Posted August 28, 2022 Share Posted August 28, 2022 Anybody lost in the woods who can catch either a bald eagle or a spotted owl without weapons deserves to be able to enjoy a good meal. That's no small feat. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Connor Cochrane Posted August 31, 2022 Share Posted August 31, 2022 (edited) It's shaping up to be a great fall for migration out by me, but unfortunately I'm going to miss most of it being so busy with school. I chose to take 4 APs in addition to 2 honors this year, trying for a 4.85 weighted GPA. That comes with 4-7 hours of homework a night, in addition to 3 hours of water polo daily so I'm not really birding that much, unless I can squeeze out a small block on the weekend.

IKLland Posted August 31, 2022 Share Posted August 31, 2022 Looks like it’s going to be a pretty decent migration here as well, but I’m not sure how much I’ll get out birding…. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same here. I am hoping to bird the North Georgia Mountains soon. It is a great place to find migrating warblers. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not that bad, but there is zero breeze here, the sun is so strong this time of year, and I haven't seen a cloud in a few weeks. I should note that September is the hottest month of the year here. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seanbirds Posted September 13, 2022 Share Posted September 13, 2022 (edited) Oh wow.
