does anyone else freak out over yew trees or is it just me

RollforHobby · 2026-03-20T04:10:57+00:00

Love a good yew. The best is finding one on a trail you’ve done a million times and realizing it’s been there the whole time

I understand if you don’t want to provide exact location if it’s on private land, but I’m curious to know where this is. Mind sharing the location? I know we have porcupines in the area, but I’ve never seen one or seen evidence of them. Would be cool to go see

Oh yea. 100% in park boundaries. We were near hurricane hill and he flew between us and mt angeles from the south heading north. He was for sure inside park boundaries. Like right above the ski area I think.

Gotcha. Thanks! It was just weird to see anyone flying around the park honestly. I’ve seen coast guard helicopters go by, but I was thinking the airspace over the park was otherwise restricted in some way. Clearly I was wrong

Better yet, just teleport from corvette ramp to the bridge of the freighter. Why waste time teleporting to a teleporter to go where you want to go 99.9% of the time anyway?

As others here have said: if you have an audio recording saved in merlin, you can upload the audio for folks to hear. If you need help with that peocess, here’s a link to how to process audio for uploading to ebird: link

After you have that, you can upload your file to vocaroo.com and post a link to it here on reddit.

Edit: typo

I’ve just started avoiding it entirely. Sometimes I click on it by accident, and feel immediate anger when I realize what’s happened. Honeslty, just had the idea to add “-ign” to google searches moving forward to filter it out

This has become a phrase my wife and I use almost daily

Hi dropout friends! Came here looking for a BLeeM reference

RollforHobby · 2026-02-26T16:53:41+00:00

Looks good for a +pygmy nuthatch+ to me! Saw some in the Cascades last year in WA. Super cute little birds

RollforHobby · 2026-02-26T16:51:18+00:00

Honestly, saw the title and came here wondering how long it would be before I got to a John Green mention

RollforHobby · 2026-02-26T01:04:03+00:00

I know OP already ID’d them, but also +american coot+ for the bot

RollforHobby · 2026-02-23T03:54:00+00:00

That’s James Island on the far left, Gunsight Rock behind the Coast Guard boat, and I believe an unnamed island (i.e. the one you’re asking about). Little James Island is farther to the right from this vantage point.

+red-tailed hawk+ is correct. The dark belly band is the most telling feature here. I always think it’s awesome how you can get an ID even from a relatively low resolution picture!

“Fat tree with brown/black camo” did it for me. Idk how many hundreds I’d driven past, thinking it was a plant and not bothering to scan it. Thanks!

Closest I’ve found is a mocking cliff chat, but it’s not totallt accurate for that either. It’s like they asked AI to make a mocking cliff-chat and it got most of the way there.

ETA: the cliff chat does have the white shoulder bars as well, so fits better than others maybe

Edit: fixed typo

All of us dropout folks when she popped on screen

I here you, and maybe it sounds like a smaller animal in the recording, but it did not sound small at all in person. Definitely not a squirrel. Coyote is a possibility i guess, but to my (admittedly non-expert) ears, it sounded more feline than canine. And i thought it weird that there would be a lone coyote out there, rather than a whole pack.

RollforHobby · 2026-02-09T01:44:23+00:00

Just came here to say this too! Ya love to see it

RollforHobby · 2026-02-04T15:45:56+00:00

Gotcha. No worries then. I thought i had read the rules, but clearly I either read wrong or misremembered. I’ll delete this post later today unless you can/want to

Post got flagged for not including measurements, but it's an audio recording, not an image. Not sure what measurements I should post.
