"It doesn't interest me what you do for a living. I want to know what you ache for – and if you dare to dream of meeting your heart's longing. It doesn't interest me how old you are. I want to know if you will risk looking like a fool – for love – for your dreams – for the adventure of being alive."

Last night's Owl Prowl was a huge success. I didn't think it was going to work, playing owl calls through bluetooth speakers, but it totally did, very quickly. Amazing to see 3 or 4 Barred owls swooping from tree to tree silently then perching and calling back to the speakers, just like the guide hoped they would. Huge birds flying silently then vocalizing loudly and repeatedly. Magical.
Hold on I'm starting to see websites block me because I'm the E.U. and they can't bother to enforce GDPR? What the heck? You're just gonna start excluding entire continents now!?
