I did almost 15K steps today, pretty happy with the accomplishment. All I wanted in the morning was to stay in bed and not do anything, and wasn’t that far from attempting it. A couple of highlights:

  • The difference between Rook and Western Jackdaw is enormous, once you see them next to each other. However, neither posed for a photo. I was not fast enough (bottom photo, 5 seconds too late)
  • I have a new photo of the void but will share it as a separate post because it is worthy

I’m a mild believer in the intermittent fasting. It’s not because of any science behind this diet but rather because if I don’t try doing it, I can eat all the time, particularly sweet things.

I watched the following reel and it deeply touched me. The comedian is also right.
