  2. Scheduled power outage for utility line work has let me test my backup plan. The good news is that the transfer from on grid to was seamless. The bad news is that all the outlets on one side of the house are a single circuit, and the fuse isn't a high enough amperage to power to portable AC units at full power. Have to see if we can upgrade the fuse.

  9. A Toco Toucan at Birdworld in Surrey

    When I took the shot the angle of the sun was such that when it turned its head side-on its bill was lit from behind - as a result you can see some of the many blood vessels running through it.

    In 2009 scientists reported that the toucan can use its bill for thermal regulation, it's able to radiate heat through it to cool down: science.org/content/article/bi
