    ʻā! Two final lifers

    My conference paper was about eBird and how its gamification elements might skew the data. So the colleague who had organized and led the session realized that I was a birder and introduced himself as a colleague also in that regard. So, on my last day on Oahu, he and I rented a car and drove to...

    Watching and photographing these was a way to pass the time while getting evacuated from the devastation of Hurricane Maria. I was an extremely hazy day with a weird light, but I think the AF did ok. This is not a crop, this is how close this bird got (equivalent reach 700 mm). I am likely to...
