@ukuku #CarsonCity Nevada has one at their community center just a block from downtown. Again, not fast, but with Lunch and a little shopping it is enough to get my M3 #Tesla back to Sacramento.
As and aside, the Nevada State Railroad Museum is worth the drive if you like that kind of thing.
Went for a quick ride with my Dad along the river before it got to hot. Heard lots of birds in the wildlife habitat protected area, but only saw Starlings and Mahpies

The other day, I was down at Ross Gold Park in Carson City and saw several bird families swimming about the pond. Caught these two looking silly cute.

Visited the Carson City WWTP Wetlands, between the freeway and the sewage plant (I know, lovely location) where a lot of different birds settle in to enjoy the many reeds and ponds in the area. Tried using eBird again and, while I like having the record, it's just a pain to try to keep count (and putting X on everything seems less than ideal). I like that iNaturalist pulls the metadata from the photo to tag the date/time/location vs having to select a vague location to submit a checklist.
Did meet with a few others out photographing the birds. One gentleman from Carson Valley had a super fast camera to snap multiple pictures, as I was busy trying to focus. We stood around for a bit identifying different birds. Which is when I learned my new 10x50 binoculars are better than my camera! I could see ducks on the far side of the pond clearly that my poor camera could only get a fuzzy shape for. Hurmmmm, have to ponder this.
Trying something new. I'll post the best four pictures here and then if you'd like to see the rest of the birds I saw, they'll be uploaded here: https://metapixl.com/p/NevadaWolf/550849699829402094 (It's just an experiment).

Backyard birding and caught this pretty red-shafted Northern Flicker hanging out at the suet.

We got almost 8“ of snow in the last 24 hours here in western Gardnerville, and it‘s still snowing heavily. I shoveled this driveway 24 hours ago.

I do believe that there is a Golden Eagle.

Stopped by ducky park, really called Ross Gold Park, to have lunch from Panera and saw several American Wigeons swimming around while all the mallards were distracted by a family feeding them seeds.

#CarsonCity has a sweet indoor track and it’s totally FREE?? I wish I could #run indoors like this at home in the #winter.
Checked out the lights at the Capitol and at Silver Saddle Ranch this evening and then played Settlers of Catan with the kids at home afterwards #CarsonCity
