  1. For I have this cute American Robin (Turdus migratoris) perched on an old fence post in San Diego's Laguna Mountains.

    This immature bird still has the spots of a juvenile on his chest, and a lighter, more pale general appearance compared to an adult.

  2. #BirdOfTheDay : le thème du jour est #Raptors et l'alternatif #Corvids
    Une bondrée apivore très, très loin dans le ciel et une pie bavarde toute mignonne.

  6. Autumn is slowly arriving here in the Pacific Northwest. I've got a new blog entry with recent bird photography.

    This Merlin was taking a short break from scuffling with some crows.

  10. Falcon Silhuette
    I just really dig silhuette pictures at the Moment.  This is a common kestrel sitting in a tree in front of the sun.

  15. Reflections at Low Tide

    This image caught my eye partly because of the contrast between the sandbar and the tidal pool, but mostly because of the odd perspective. In the upper left, a ring‑billed gull walks along a sandbar from left to right. In the lower right, a snowy egret forages quietly in a tidal pool. The gull is farther away, yet somehow appears larger than the egret, even though the egret is the much bigger species. It’s a perfect example of how photography can bend reality and play tricks with scale.

    My photo gallery features over 1800 carefully selected images. While most are chosen for their visual appeal, a few stand out as novelty shots. Feel free to explore my gallery at:

  20. Good morning. 😴⏰☕

    22 September 2026

    Yesterday I received a new battery for an Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) that had given up the ghost. Well… not completely — the unit still powered on, but the battery refused to charge. This isn’t my first rodeo with UPS units, so I set about removing what I assumed was the battery access panel. On the bottom was a single screw practically screaming, “I secure the battery door!” So I removed it and tried to slide the panel open, only to be thwarted from every angle.

    Then I consulted Microsoft Copilot, which—helpfully—told me to do exactly what I was already doing. At one point it even suggested hitting the thing with a rubber mallet, a recommendation I enjoyed far more than I should have. Still, the panel didn’t budge.

    Finally, I removed every outer screw, pulled the front and rear panels loose, and discovered the truth: there is no battery access panel. Instead, the entire UPS is a two‑piece clamshell, and the only way to reach the battery is to split the case open.

    The molded plastic design didn’t help matters. It looked exactly like a battery door existed — complete with that screaming little screw on the bottom — but the actual battery compartment was on the opposite side of the chassis than the screw suggested. Not that it mattered, since there was no door at all.

    To add insult to injury, the owner’s manual confidently instructs you to “slide or pull the battery compartment cover.” Maybe that’s a practical joke. More likely, CyberPower changed the design somewhere along the way and never bothered updating the manual.
