you forgot iii. Jimmy Stewart and his Exacta in Hitchcock's Rear Window.

Ha, that's right, that would definitely be considered creepy these days. Was it back then? Or did he just get a pass because he was Jimmy Stewart?I disabled signatures. -

Most people just listen to music and watch movies. I EXPERIENCE them.

I shared this with my wife, who sent it on to several 'gardening friends', who got a real kick out of it.

The picture is actually more vibrant than reality, but here’s the view from our dock about 5 minutes ago. Never seen the sky like this here in North Texas.

Very cool image. Going to be looking north later. Still twilight here in Oregon.

cloudy here all last night, so no aurora


pine siskin on the left and indigo bunting on the right
Fun fact about indigo buntings. They are not actually blue. They just look like they are.
https://abcbirds.org/bird/indigo-bunting/
i.e., no blue pigment in their feathers.A male Indigo Bunting in breeding plumage is a glorious symphony of shimmering blues, turquoises, and purples. But these beautiful colors are illusory: Like the iridescence of hummingbirds and the blue plumage of other species such as Eastern Bluebird, the male Indigo Bunting owes its glorious appearance to an optical trick — the diffraction of light through its feathers. In poor lighting, the bunting's glorious colors disappear and it becomes a plain, dark-colored finch.
Trickery.
