Things I should post about soon, but am not going to right this moment:


  • Garden update, with pictures. I have the pictures, I just have to edit them and write the post. Actually, several weeks' worth of pictures, showing the PAVOOM of growth we've had in the last couple of weeks.
  • Birdfeeder post, because we have FOUR NEW SPECIES since last Friday! A goldfinch, a nuthatch, two white-crowned sparrows, and a single white-throated sparrow, specifically. Also, a house finch checked in -- not a NEW species, as we had a single one last fall, but new this year. [edited to fix sparrow name -- thanks, [info]tigertoy!]
  • Guitar class stuff.
  • Book recommendations of things I've read recently. Short version: Christopher Moore's A Dirty Job and Julia Serano's Whipping Girl.
  • Summer semester class choices and such.
  • What I look like with short hair -- my userpic is increasingly inaccurate. :->

"white-breasted sparrow"? I'm guessing you mean a white-breasted nuthatch and some other kind of sparrow.

Nope, I merely misspoke about which bit of the bird's front was white. According to my Kaufman guide, the new species we've had in the yard are:

American Goldfinch (female), Carduelis tristis
White-crowned Sparrow (male and female), Zonotrichia leucophrys
White-throated Sparrow (male), Zonotrichia albicollis
Red-breasted Nuthatch (not dimorphic; one), Sitta canadensis.
