    Thank you very much!  It's an awesome site.  I was checking what birds were migrating at night through my county and the rose breasted grosbeak was the third one on their list.  Yesterday afternoon, I happened to look out my kitchen windows at the bird feeders and there's a brightly colored male rose breasted grosbeak (and likely his more drably colored girlfriends) at my sunflower feeder.  

    You’re very welcome. I’m addicted to it this time of year lol. It’s so cool!!

    Pretty awesome site that shows how many birds are migrating through where you live at any given time. Peak season going on right now (at night). These frigid temps for late April are keeping the traffic low for now but on Sunday when it was in the 70s , I saw that 380,000 or so birds were flying over the 607 at about 3:00 am or so.

    It’s unfortunate the amount of mockery and sarcasm that both of the schedule threads are being flooded with

     

    While not the biggest group of people, there are certainly more than a few here that actually enjoy discussing the schedule and how it lines up, myself included 

     

    Feels like it’s not even worth speculating in either of these threads as people would just mock it 🤦‍♂️ 

    Also for those of us who are planning an away game it’s a pretty big deal too so we can start planning and booking. Dates are helpful for that lol

    Watched the first couple episodes of Reacher on Amazon Prime. If you have read any of the Reacher books by Lee Child (and there are a ton of them), the series does a pretty good job of capturing the overall feel/vibe of the character...loner, complicated past, always comes out on top, etc.

     

    If you know the books, then you know that while the Tom Cruise movies were decent entertainment, the character he was playing was NOT the Jack Reacher. Cruise is 5' 6" with heals and maybe 150 lbs. Reacher is 6'5", 240lbs and a menacing dude. This series, for the most part, at least gets that part right. I was hoping the actor would be a bit more brooding and weathered and a little less handsome and chiselled, but after 2 episodes it's working for me.

     

    One note - if you are a fan of the books, then you know that the stories often rely on wild leaps of faith, impossible coincidences, and a general suspension of logic, all of which are present in the series. It makes Jack Ryan look positively by-the-book. But it works! The books are well-written, pulpy fun, and so far so is the series.

    Roscoe is a dime piece and was pretty pumped (and surprised) she had a nude scene!

    Finally watched Episode 1 of "Squid Game" on Netflix last night.

     

    I liked it well enough, though it took a long time to get to the actual "game" part of the show.

     

    Is everyone else watching this?

     

     

    Autumn called and it wants its show du jour back. I kid I kid….I watched it and really enjoyed it. Interesting take on society and humanity.

    Bills Jets officially flexed to 4:25p

    What is the reasoning for flexing? I get moving a primetime matchup to a night game. But why change a matchup like Bills/Jets to 4:25? 

    My guess is it technically is a larger viewing audience for the 4:25 slot and the division is in fact on the line. So anything even remotely on the line will be better viewership from a networks point of view.
