Psycho Sharon continues to make progress despite her release date being postponed until Sunday, (today), due to inclement weather. She was allowed an extra therapy session to deal with this frustration. However, her yard time today was cut short due to a heated arguement between her sister from another mister and herself which resulted in a food fight, attempted sparing through the enclosure, and a brief neck grab executed by her shit starter stepsister. She was removed and replaced back in her holding cell, which has been upgraded to one that includes more sunlight and visibility. Unfortunately, she became extremely vocal when the wardens children and 6 of their friends tried turning the garage into a workshop for their dirt bikes. They were scolded and were ran off quickly by the warden, because the wardens scares the shit out of them. The covered gate was brought around until she stopped screeching and got her anxiety under control. She was then allowed indirect sunshine and a fan to have a comforting passive breeze flow over her as she awaits her release at 730pm tonight. Stay tuned to her channel to get the most current updates as she will be released wearing LEDS to allow tracking if she takes off towards the nest in the woods. Video footage of yard fight was not available due to warden intervening as soon as shit went down and stopped recording.

I caught these two piping plovers stacked on top of each other and thought it was really cute. Is this normal behavior for plovers or did I catch something unusual?

She and her partner spent a full day building a nest on our windowsill under the air conditioning bracket. The next day there was one egg, the third day there was a second egg. Now it’s day 4 and she hasn’t left the nest for more than a couple seconds at a time to change positions. It’s a very small ledge so I’m not sure if this will end in tragedy or not.

This fellow stopped and hovered 30 feet in front of me for a couple seconds. I quickly snapped some shots without time to frame anything. Got lucky on this one.

Poor thing actually looks kinda scared tbh

Showed up in my neighborhood and I was able to catch a glimpse of him facing forward.
