▲ 3 r/birds

I took this photo whilst sitting on the toilet so sorry for bad quality.

I live right next to a forest in northern Virginia, and recently got this suction cup feeder. It’s great because no other animals can reach it 30 feet up. I don’t see birds too often but today I saw this cute cardinal chomping away.

I’m not a bird person but something I realized is that apparently wild birds don’t like the nutrient pellets that pet bird food includes. All the millet and sunflower is gone but all the pellets are left.

Anyways, just wanted to share this

This monster is 100x185mm, or 4x7.3in.

Although evidently released as a commemorative or collector piece (I cannot find any evidence of any of these with circulation wear,) it’s still awesome and part of my mega size set

This massive note is the largest sized bill released by Mongolia.

At a massive 100x185mm (4x7.3in), it dwarfs any modern currency.

The reverse is very reminiscent of late 19th century Russian notes with multicolored scalloped design

I cannot find any indication that these were ever used as you cannot find any for sale in circulated condition, so although it’s more of a commemorative/collectors note, still a sight to see.

I have no idea what historical Mongolian exchange rates were, but today 100 togrog is 0.02USD
