New recording in the field. More writing work.
Next week I might shift this to Monday. There is a lot getting written on Sunday and it’s starting to feel a little congested and toil-ish.
Got to get out in the field and make a new overnight recording. Spot checks sound good, can’t wait to (minimally) process and share it.
There were two projects (ok maybe “projects” ?) this week.
First, I carried around the camera on several mornings, hoping to make a photograph of the Great Blue Heron that we had sighted twice last week. But either because of the increasingly early sunrise, the change of the weather, or just the animal whims of the bird itself, I didn’t come across it again. I heard it had been seen in one of the nearby fields, but I haven’t gotten over there. I did make some (bad) pictures of quail (they’re fast little buggers).
Second, I hiked to the Peters Creek Loop in Portola Redwoods. Obviously I wanted to try and make some photos of the trees, the old car, and any other interestring forest things (fungus, face like patterns/pareidolia, water, whatever).
There have been some good clouds lately.
Recap: I am focusing on getting better at my high fiber diet this 30 days. So I found some surprising foods that are quite high in fiber, and I’ve been collecting them in a note so I can share.
Finished reading The Year 1000 by Lacey and Danziger. It was an interesting read!
After checking through a number of books on my to-read pile I selected How to Live by Bakewell. I’ll probably also read some Montaigne essays in between chapters.
More notes in the notebook, and the various post files. I think it will take a few weeks to fill up the buffer and start to skim off the more finished pieces.
I was also hoping to start to see some more isolated and self-complete shorter notes or observations. Nothing has felt immediately ready for sharing. I might just have to take some risks.
Replies by email are appreciated.
