This is a short video from my June 2024 visit to the The Butterfly Pavilion at the LA County Natural History Museum. It was pretty fun.

Banjo the emu was harassing and chasing the wallabies around at the Santa Barbara Zoo in the Australian Walkabout exhibit. I think he was just playing and not really trying to hurt the wallabies. The Australian Walkabout exhibit is pretty cool because you can walk around inside the enclosure with the animals. (www.sbzoo.org/animal/new-australian-walkabout/) May 2024

This is a short video of the view through the window of my room at the Hilton Anchorage at midnight, June 20, 2022, the summer solstice. As you can see, it is still quite light out.

During my March 2024 visit to New Mexico, I took a hike on the Ancestral Sites Trail at the Pecos National Historical Park.

The Spanish worked to convert those people by establishing a massive church, which was burnt do...

This is a short video of the Reynisfjara black sand beach in Iceland from my visit there in March 2022. It's beautiful, but it is very dangerous to go near the water because of what they call "sneaker waves". www.visiticeland.com/article/reynisfjara-black-sand-beach-is-dangerous

I went out for the afternoon and when I got home and checked my ring camera, I found several videos of crows in my backyard. I often see crows in my yard, but they don't usually come up on the patio. Several of them looked into the sliding glass door and seemed to peck at it a couple of times. Maybe they thought the reflection was another crow. The camera comes on to record motion and then stop...

I caught a couple crows harassing a squirrel on my backyard camera.
