Bored, rainy/icy outside...

My boring default picture looks rather scared actually.

 

I love the way they really point out that they think you are a boring person if you are a default person. Apply social pressure to get people to change the default.

Probably my best bored sketch so far.

With a bold green head and eyes, the boreal snaketail dragonfly is sure to catch the eyes of many. There are two ways to determine the sex of the species. First, the females have a strip of green coloration on their black legs while males' legs are solid black; secondly, unlike most species, the males have dark horns on their head, while the females have a set of horns in front and behind their eyes. This species is found primarily across Canada and along the northeastern United States. Mainly feeding on mosquitoes and other aquatic insects, snaketails can be found near streams, rivers, and other small pools of water where their prey reside. With a lifespan of up to five years, the secret behind their success could be in the way they feed. Mid-flight, dragonflies spot their prey and capture them with their long legs, consuming them while still flying.

 

Dragonflies play a significant role in freshwater ecosystems, and this role starts as soon they hatch as nymphs. The nymphs spend a lot of time underwater consuming mosquito larvae helping to control the population of mosquitos. Studying the size and density of populations of dragonflies can help researchers determine the health of the ecosystem in that area. Dragonflies do not like polluted water and will leave to find new water sources. In New England waterways become polluted by storm water run-off, sewage pollution, pharmaceuticals (paint killers, mood stabilizers, anti-depressants, birth control pills, hormone medications) cosmetics as well as pesticides from domestic lawncare and farming. April 27 is national Drug Take Back day, run by the Drug Enforcement Agency (DEA) and many states have year around disposal programs. IN addition, maintaining wetlands to help off-set storm runoff will aid in keeping the water table clean.

I almost deleted this picture. It feels boring, but after spending 4 years at this place, it felt like an appropriate capture.

A gargoyle in the old episcopal holding court in Bamberg. He looks really bugged out and bored due to the fact he had to be there for several hundred years and no end in sight^^

Sorry if I tricked my Ontario contacts...this is not a bird seen this year. It is an archive shot that I tweaked a little bit. I hadn't noticed the eye looking at me before. Branches are often part of the deal when trying to photograph small owls in thick conifers.

A shot from my self innitiated project 'Bored Ghosts'. The narrative features two adolecent ghosts trapped in an abandoned hotel, being slowly consumed by boredom and repition.

A rather bored looking angel garden sculpture, found in the courtyard of a shop in Cirencester.

 

This photo was used in an online non profite cultural magazine called Il Pendolo www.ilpendolo.info/?p=652 - in Italian, in a piece on boredom as analysed by the Swedish philosopher Svendsen.

  

The still photos weren't doing this little guy justice, and then I remembered I had video capabilities on my camera. I initially posted this as a 'spring peeper,' thinking that was a generic name for these loud spring frogs, but a birding contact, Mike Duchek, who knows a bit about frogs as well, let me know that this is in fact a chorus frog, or according to the Wisconsin DNR, more specifically, a boreal chorus frog. Good to know, and glad to pass along the correct information.

At the library, and this is what happens when you end up getting no new mags to browse!

 

I haven't uploaded anything new in a while. Hope to catch up with my contacts pretty soon. Peace V

In the Piazza Navona shortly after the rain had stopped. These young ladies looked thoroughly bored.

 

Boring bar adapter. 0.5" O.D., 0.375" I.D. Mates my 3/8" boring bars with my 1/2" boring head. The slit was cut with the 4" saw depicted elsewhere, using the arbor I made. The inside was reamed to size using a 0.3750" straight-flute reamer, and the outside was turned down to 0.5" using a normal tool followed by a finishing cut using a tangential tool.
