Below is a compilation of bird videos I posted to Instagram throughout February 2018. These were taken at either Mason Mill Park, or along the South Peachtree Creek PATH in Atlanta, GA. The video labeled "Song Sparrow" actually depicts a Field Sparrow, I believe.

A sampling of some of the items I've found left behind during my early morning walks along the South Peachtree Creek PATH and Stone Mountain.
Brown Rabbit
Some video of a rabbit I encountered along the South Peachtree Creek PATH trail, 9 June 2017. It stuck around long enough for me to get this video. I was maybe four or five feet away, using the zoom.

Universal Deism
Science shows us what makes up the world around us, but it's not always so concerned with the metaphysical why. Water is a basic building block for life on Earth, for instance. Does it matter why hydrogen and oxygen combine to create water? Was there some sort of divine plan underlying this behavior? A divine … Continue reading Universal Deism
