Vanbrat, The Cornell app is the best I ever used in the easiest, and it’s free. Hard to beat that!

Maki2 - I cheated and looked it up on the Cornell bird ID app, and I think brewers blackbirds is right I just didn’t wanna put it on here and act like I knew everything because I didn’t, I had to check it out. there’s a real way to cheat with birds or to learn with birds if you want. Cornell...

Maki2. I’m glad you’re seeing birds but I don’t think you’re seeing the right ones. Unless you have a western species of cow bird that has a yellow eye. I’ve never seen one With a yellow eye, they usually are dark. And by the way, cowbirds do not nest. She lays her eggs in another birds nest...

Maki2 - I understand that. that’s what I do too. Got your priorities, right if you’re thinking about eating. God bless to nomads and keep them well fed.

Maki2, does your raven do aerobatics for you? They are the neatest flyers ,upside down and barrel rolls and all sorts of tricks. They are obviously playing there’s no other explanation for it, but it is fascinating. One of my campsites up in Perry County has a nest nearby and when I’m over at...

Hello van Brett, for the last 25 years I’ve taken at least 1000 pictures a week sometimes 10,000 a week. Secret to getting good bird pictures or any kind of pictures to take hundreds and find the best one because they move in the light changes, etc. unfortunately since I fell on August 3 and...

Hello friend, nice to hear you’re seeing so much nature. I have a lot of birds here at the pond I have a warbling, Verio, Orchard orioles, Baltimore orioles, and a common yellowthroat, and a lot of the other common birds around. I love to hear the red wing blackbirds sang. I’m glad you got to...

Today marks 31 days in the hospital including the last six in the rehab hospital. I had my fourth chemotherapy treatment today and it went well. While I don’t have cancer, they use the same drug for ITP as cancer. Tonight, now, I am. Van dweller again. I don’t feel like driving yet, but a friend...

Numbers up even further today - 37. Now it’s a big decision time. It was a nice try, but I think this is the end of my “nomad career” The doctor doesn’t want me too far away from him so he can monitor the situation. I need to remember and be thankful that that I got 3 1/2 years full timing...

Maki2 - Thanks for the lead on that hummingbird show. I’m a subscriber to “Nature” but I haven’t watched that one yet. As a subscriber, I can open it up anytime and see full episodes, I usually wait till I can’t find anything else that I fall back on that one. Today my platelet count is 37...

Hello nomad friends, I miss spoke about the “stroke“. One of the people around here in a uniform was saying TIA, which is same as stroke. I found out now it was bleeding in the layers of covering of the brain not the brain itself, so thankfully, not a real stroke, but some of the same confusion...

Goes without saying it’s been a long time since I posted. I’m back in the hospital with a blood problem. I had zero platelets and therefore bruising and bleeding and I’m under treatment with IV steroids. You gotta do what you gotta do. Now even my doctor is telling me I can’t live in a van...
