I set up my MBP’s Hazel to sync the latest Fujifilm X RAW Studio camera profiles from my Mac Mini. Now if I’m on the go I’ll be set. Glad they’re simple JSON files (easy to edit too).


First roast of the winter!

Yellow Rumped Warbler in the grapes this time!

Got a Kinglet in one place for a few moments!

Close up of the pea sized hail and frost. The hail didn’t melt overnight!

First major frosty morning here.

Pea sized hail in Orland!!


Some kind of Kinglet, maybe a Ruby Crown Kinglet, in the grapes this time. Was moving fast as birds do.

It’s hilarious to me that it’s easier for me to use the Sonos app to listen to the latest Apple Music Strombo Show. Sonos app can put the show front and center while Apple Music makes me search for Strombo cuz the Radio tab is garbage.
