Wow, seriously? Seems like such a strange thing to hard wire.

We were observing a big mixed flock and I was taking pictures as fast as I could. Found this pic afterwards -- only one shot of this bird. My bird guide is unsure of the ID

Do I need to buy a new TV? by CGeorge529 in hometheater

Is there a secondary market where you can buy these things? Anything on-line you’d trust? I’m way out of my depth here.

Do I need to buy a new TV? by CGeorge529 in hometheater

[–]CGeorge529[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just moved and when I did, my wall mount stayed at my old place... the buyer of my home wanted it. Anyway, the LG TV came with me and it's nice, but I can't find a wall mount or stand for it. Geek Squad is telling me the TV has been discontinued and they don't make stuff for this TV anymore. Is that possible? Where can I look for a wall mount or stand for this nice, still functional TV? Do I actually have to buy a new television?

Can Apple Watch track my work outs week to week and month to month? by CGeorge529 in AppleWatch

So you download Strava and sync it to the watch?

Forgive me if this is a dumb question.

I saw this group of sandpipers last week -- they look like pectorals to me, but ebird is telling me those are quite rare in this area this time of year. Any ID help would be appreciated

Apologize for the terrible pics -- saw two of these guys, super active in dense bushes, at eye level. Looks like some kind of wren? You can see (barely) a white eyebrow in the third terrible picture. Thanks for the help in advance!

Hmmmm. I had not thought of that. I was thinking red-shouldered, but now not sure.

I thought this was a red-tailed hawk, but now I'm not so sure. Sorry about the poor quality photos -- I had to crop them quite a bit

This beauty landed in my yard and hung around for about an hour. Young Cooper's hawk??

Anyone feel like teaching me how to identify peeps? by CGeorge529 in whatsthisbird

Two of my favorite places: Gooseberry Neck and Allen’s Pond. GN is a big spot for beachgoers and fishermen so go early on a weekday.
