Approximately 47 years ago, back in May of 2020, during the ‘early days’ of the pandemic, we had a bird strike. This was the most exciting thing that happened that week—most definitely the most exciting thing for the cats.
I noticed a small bird on our 2nd floor balcony. We called the local Dept. of Natural Resources, who informed us that we should let the bird sit for about an hour. They usually recover in that time period. If not, chances were slim that the bird would survive. They also gave us some locations we could take the bird to if it needed some sort of care, though the guy asked what type of bird it was. His reasoning was that if it was a nuisance species, whatever bird sanctuary we took it too would probably kill it. Merlin Bird identified it as a Brown Creeper.
We decided to let birdo sit on the deck, and sure enough, about an hour later, it started moving around. It hopped across the decking a bit, pooped, and then decided to scale the screen door. When it started to move, the cats noticed it. They lost it. It was quite humorous, as both cats wanted to get the bird, but when Neutron got too close to Alice, Alice would swat Neutron, and Neutron would get offended that she didn’t have unfettered access to the window to watch the bird.
The bird rested on the screen a bit, pooped again, and then flew off.
Well, I guess we better get this one started. sigh

Hello Tim, I was a bit unsure how to reach you, so I try it this way, although my question is regarding your very helpful „Thoughts on Color Negative Scanning“ here: https://125px.com/articles/photography/digital/colorneg/, particularly removing the orange mask with VueScan. Paragraph 6.) is clear to me, but number 7.) „Do the same for blue“, does it mean I should divide red by blue or divide green by blue ? That ´s my simple question. Among various recommendations and suggestions for scanning and VueScan I noticed yours one of the best. Thank you for a short answer, greetings from Austria, Helmut.
