    Does anyone recall how we made the viewing boxes with the pin holes that projected the image of the eclipse without the need to stare at the sun? Might save some eye damage. I noticed the glasses are getting pricey on Amazon and now might never arrive in time.

    Oh cool, a Rufous Hummingbird! Was this photo recent? I’ve only seen a few of them around this year. Lucky you to have gotten a photo of it nectaring!

    I live by Lincoln Park and this was actually right in my front yard Saturday before I left for the Mariners game.  I got about 20 pictures but this one was the best!

Sorry, comment time is over.
