    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.

    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. B)
    https://abcbirds.org/bird/indigo-bunting/
    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.
    i.e., no blue pigment in their feathers.
    Trickery.

    @BlueBirdMusic @PSOVLSK - are these photos of Auroras? Did you guys know about this? I just saw an article that said this is a thing happening right now, talking about visibility as far south as Alabama.
    I disabled signatures.

    Yes, it is. I knew nothing about it either. We just happened to be sitting outside last night or we would have missed it. I thought it was much cooler than the eclipse…and lasted a lot longer.

    ^^^^ I was in Auburn Maine last night & the sky was clear & I looked to the west/s.west (over your way) & I could see the light rays. It was cool. Had it been clearer over your way I may have seen quite the show. Iirc it was around 10pm & 2am when I viewed it. I enjoyed what I did see

    :p

    That is their new location. I think the company was sold years ago and the name changed to modernize. They used to be located on Danville Corner Road in Auburn. We knew the former owner.

    Here is where they were located for decades:

    My bricks that I built my house came from Danville. I was across the road at the truck stop last night. You know the area I take it
