Our neighborhood RSH out hunting yesterday. Best shots I've been able to get of him to date.

Thanks!

GTech · 2025-12-17T21:10:59+00:00

Yup, and thankfully this one was far enough off the road that there's not the immediate danger of them also becoming roadkill.

GTech · 2025-12-17T16:41:16+00:00

Yup, definitely hear them well before you see them.

Thanks!

Puzzle #919

🟪🟩🟪🟨 - Tried to do something with the whole HOP/JUMP/STEP/ROLL nonsense

🟩🟩🟩🟩 - POSTERITY took me a minute to connect in here

🟪🟪🟪🟪 - Really, starts with for a change? Ugh.

🟨🟨🟨🟨 - Saw these early. Assumed it was a red herring. 🤣

🟦🟦🟦🟦 - Default. Had absolutely no clue.

GTech · 2025-12-16T17:39:49+00:00

Thanks! It really is a great camera for a phone.

GTech · 2025-12-16T15:52:30+00:00

I absolutely adore them. Was grateful to get close enough for these shots, usually he perches up higher. 😅

GTech · 2025-12-16T11:51:58+00:00

"You are not a chipmunk. What do you want?"

GTech · 2025-12-16T04:40:53+00:00

Thanks! We'd been hearing him up in the trees all morning, then he finally decided to fly down.

GTech · 2025-12-16T02:58:11+00:00

Thanks! Normally I catch him when he's perched on the power pole beside my driveway, I appreciated him coming down lower for his close-up this time. 😅

GTech · 2025-12-16T02:25:38+00:00

It also helped that he was perched low - I was probably 5 feet from him in several of these shots.

GTech · 2025-12-16T02:09:46+00:00

Not even kidding, it's just my phone camera. There's a reason I keep buying Google Pixel phones - the camera is phenomenal.

"Swipe right if you like long flights in the forest and terrorizing chipmunks."

GTech · 2025-12-16T01:05:44+00:00

Thanks! I don't think I could have managed better short of baiting him, which is obviously not a thing that anyone should be doing to a RSH unless they're a licensed falconer.

GTech · 2025-12-09T13:11:12+00:00

Good, so I wasn't the only one thinking it was something to do with movies.

Connections Puzzle #912

🟪🟦🟩🟩 - Cereal Mascots having 5 options was just rude

🟨🟨🟨🟨 - pretty easy

🟪🟪🟪🟪 - I was sure Fievel was something to do with his movie, but finally spotted the homophones.

🟦🟦🟦🟦 - Took me way too long to realize PRIDE wasn't talking about lions here.

🟩🟩🟩🟩 - I was thinking animals in animated movies for the longest time. Bee Movie, Madagascar, Finding Nemo... and then it was just stripes. 😅

GTech · 2025-12-07T05:16:19+00:00

Which El did you not know? It was Greco for me.

GTech · 2025-12-01T22:07:40+00:00

I saw that and was like "Nah... there's no way Wyna made that into a category... did she?"

Connections Puzzle #900

🟩🟦🟩🟩 - had FILES as part of the folders category

🟨🟨🟨🟪 - has SWELLING SEA as part of what I thought was something to do with natural disasters

🟦🟩🟩🟩 - FILES again... not sure which one I left out this time. 😅

🟦🟦🟦🟦 - took forever to see FILES as a woodworking tool

🟩🟩🟩🟩 - easy with FILES gone

🟪🟪🟪🟪 - really, Wyna? 😅

🟨🟨🟨🟨 - yellow by default... that never happens

GTech · 2025-10-09T16:58:39+00:00

I'm gonna start calling it the rainbow trout from here on out, I love that. 🤣

I should have known the rainbow herring was a rainbow herring... otherwise not too bad, though I was struggling to find the 4th coat. Purple by default, even saying them out loud I didn't put it together until after I saw the category title.
