It was super cute, although unfortunately we had to put it in a box and take it away before its mother could come and collect it. Squeee, baby owls!! I assume since you collected it in a box, you intend to take it to a wildlife rehabilitator so they can care for it, am I right? Do you think you could post a picture?

Yeah, although we didn't actually take it anywhere. A bystander was willing to take it up, but we had to prepare for a concert. I don't have any photos, but I plan to get them off a friend. 1
Seonid he/him Posted July 5, 2017 Posted July 5, 2017 So...I have a job interview for tomorrow! Background: I've been out of work for two months, since I graduated and moved out of the city we were living in. I quit my full-time, exceptional benefits job, and moved down to a new city to be closer to family. My wife found a part-time job, but it's very stressful on her, so we're both really hoping that this job works out. It was a good thing, ultimately, because I got out from under a bad boss - in fact, that's the only reason I considered moving to a new city when my wife suggested it. And this new job is actually related to my field of study, and pretty much is the textbook definition of a perfect job for me. So I'm excited about the interview and extremely nervous at the same time. On net, this is a good news type of post, though. 5

I hope you get the job, since from your description it sounds like a great fit for you. Also high five for escaping a toxic boss!

Sunbird she/her Posted July 7, 2017 Posted July 7, 2017 Hummingbirds I took these pictures on the 4th of July, and they're all of males because the males are the prettiest. XD Broad-tailed Hummingbirds (2 photos): Spoiler Black-chinned Hummingbirds (2 photos): Spoiler Rufous Hummingbird (1 photo): Spoiler Believe it or not, he was actually flying away from the feeder in this photo, and yes, that means he was flying backwards! Hummers are just awesome like that. 5

A Budgie she/her Posted July 7, 2017 Posted July 7, 2017 @Sunbird those are so precious! The broad tailed hummingbird with the red chin was stunning. 1
+Slowswift Posted July 7, 2017 Posted July 7, 2017 (edited) I don't think I can recommend Spiderman: Homecoming enough. Honestly. Got to go see it after work yesterday, and it was one of the most enjoyable theater things I'd seen in quite a while. Edited July 7, 2017 by Slowswift 3
A Budgie she/her Posted July 9, 2017 Posted July 9, 2017 So, some of you might remember that I'm currently on a music tour. Well, for part of that tour, we went to a festival/competition in Europe. My guitar ensemble got a gold score and we were the best in our category. I am a happy budgie. ^-^ 7

This year I passed basically everything, which I'm super hyped about. US Gov: 5 Psychology: 4 Stats: 3 (I'm still super psyched that I managed to pass in the first place) Calc BC: 2 (and happy that it wasn't a 1) AB subscore 3 (YAY!!!!) So that means that I've now passed 10 AP classes Now I'm moving on to college, should be great 1
Elenion he/him Posted July 9, 2017 Posted July 9, 2017 @The Flash Well at least you have a girlfriend... @Left 10 AP classes? That's pretty crazy. My school doesn't even offer that many classes!

I can hardly handle the three I had this last year
StrikerEZ he/him Posted July 10, 2017 Posted July 10, 2017 Last year, I got a 5 on the AP Human Geo test. This year, I got a 4 on the AP Spanish test and a 5 on the WHAP test. I'm pretty proud of myself this year.
Kered he/him Posted July 10, 2017 Posted July 10, 2017 Got another cat today. My 3 cats now outnumber my 2 dogs. My girlfriend has finally won the slow game we've been playing over the past few years.

Sunbird she/her Posted July 10, 2017 Posted July 10, 2017 Congrats @Left, @The Flash, @Elenion, and @StrikerEZ on your successes with AP tests!! I have another small batch of hummingbird photos to share Rufous Hummingbirds (2 photos): Spoiler Male: Female: Broad-tailed Hummingbirds (3 photos): Spoiler All males: Zoom zoom! Black-chinned Hummingbird (1 photo): Spoiler Male. This was the only shot I got where you can actually see the purple on his throat. Female hummer that I'm not 100% sure what species she is: Spoiler Look, you can see her little tongue just barely poking out the end of her beak! I think she's a Broad-tailed Hummingbird, but she could be a Black-chinned either, since the females of those two species look very similar. 3
Erandeni he/him Posted July 10, 2017 Posted July 10, 2017 I passed the hardest subject in my career! Yay 3
Hood he/him Posted July 11, 2017 Posted July 11, 2017 Graduated. Now I am officially an Electrical Engineer. 9
