Peregrine Falcon

· Maine Event

Yes! A Peregrine Falcon visited the mortuary next door to the office today. What a treat and what an amazingly beautiful bird. I didn't get a picture because I was too dumbfounded. Work was super duper busy, and I could barely catch my breath. That said, I think we will get an app update out the door tomorrow. Also, other tech problems got resolved today, and so life is feeling better.

Rainy in the morning, but it turned into a glorious afternoon and evening.

UFOs are still a thing?

The male Anna’s hummingbird is considered the fastest vertebrate relative to its size, reaching speeds of up to 385 body lengths per second (roughly 60 mph) during courtship dives. This speed surpasses that of fighter jets and peregrine falcons in relative terms.

This is the tree view of my first turn off on my walk from work to BART. Not bad. Those clouds are from somewhere else. Lovely.
