The Great Conjunction … with a few moons to boot. There’s Saturn, Jupiter, and our Moon. I still find it amazing that I can see 4 of Jupiter’s moons with a camera in Queens. I shoulda kept that telescope, because somewhere below Jupiter is Pluto … 🪐 🔭 […]

Caught the Full Hunter’s/Blue Moon rising last night, and setting this morning. As it rose, it was at 99.6%, and it was 100% full as it was setting at 5:15am this morning. By the time it rises again this evening, it’s not technically a full moon … But, […]
It didn’t take too long, before I had the Black-capped Chickadee eating out of the palm of my hand. It came down 3 or 4 times, as he gets used to me. He even flashed me a high-five to say thanks. After all, me nutz are the tastiest […]

Now, I’m working on getting the […]
A dedicated, religious NY Jets fan. And I suspect he can afford the additional charges. Not sure if praying actually works for the Jets, but one should try … 🏈

Praying Mantis having a snack. Spotted this guy munching on a bee. And if you look closely, that bee ain’t dead yet …
What the fork is that ??? I was watching this praying mantis, when some appendage from it’s underside started moving around, and side to side. I have no idea what it is, other than for either mating or the egg case function. Whatever it is, it reminded me […]
Caught this praying mantis as it was just completing it’s egg case. I’ve been trying to capture video of the praying mantis making her egg case. I have more video of it eating that I’m working on. This was the closest I’ve gotten. She was just finishing up, […]
