Birds of Presidio Discover and track the birds found in Presidio, San Francisco, CA! This is my own little project to keep track of them. Anyone should feel free to join!

Currently very limited in the projects it supports until @inaturalist provides some APIs for searching for projects by location but feel free to start a new project for your location like this one and I'll manually add it! :-)! www.inaturalist.org/projects/bir...

I've only managed to see 56% of the birds of San Francisco so far, and y'all gotta go catch 'em all!

First earthquake alarm clock of the year 😬

Since 2020 I have been capturing seconds of my life every day.

Didnt think I could be discliplined enough to get through a year. Instead I've found the practice to be a form of meditation that helps me pause and stay present.

Habits can make us better.
