When the starlings run off the little birds at my feeder I spend a lot of time knocking on the window to scare them away. Helping me out is a pileated woodpecker, and when he shows up the Starlings head for the trees.

Mostly doing planetary imagine, weather permitting. I mostly focus on the Sun and document activity I see on the Sun

@bsky.app Is there an FAQ page that answers common questions I can refer to. First thing I'm trying to figure out is how to restrict who can find my account. I only want followers to be able to interact, and I want to approve followers first.
