#birdapp 2021 - da war die Welt noch in Ordnung. Schumannfrequenz ballert ungestört.
Has anyone else been _unpersoned_ from Twitter/X? I've had two accounts now locked out. I'm neither a troll nor a bot.
There are times I do wish I hadn't deleted my 8k+ follower #BirdApp account and this is one of those times.
I was using #Bitdefender for my VPN, however the latest update, 27.0.3.35 is a POS! Not only does it randomly disconnect from the assigned IP, it also disconnects devices on my LAN! I reached out to support and they basically told me to change protocols, which fixed nothing!
Before the 31-May update the Premium VPN was solid, now avoid it at all cost!

#BirdApp now "allows" lewd content, seems like that manchild with his temper tantrum admitted defeat with the fight against the bots
The #RedEyedVireo was one of our far-away visitors here in #Maine!
Backyard Bird of the Month for May: Red-eyed Vireo
by Andy Kapinos
Birds, Maine's Naturalist, News & Notes · April 30, 2024
"Here I am! Where are you? Way up here! In the tree! So goes the song of the Red-eyed Vireo, heard in nearly every forested area between Kittery and Fort Kent from May until early autumn. True neotropical migrants, Red-eyed Vireos spend the nonbreeding season in the #AmazonBasin, especially in Colombia, Brasil, Venezuela, Ecuador, and Peru. Most depart South America during April, and over the course of a few weeks or a month, make their way up through Central America and the southeastern US, #migrating on clear nights and refueling during the day by feasting on the abundance of newly-emerged insects. The first males can reach Maine by the first week of May, but the majority arrive in the second and third weeks, just in time for the emergence of leaves and insects in the canopy of our forests.
"These canopy-dwellers are heard far more often than they are seen, and possess a huge vocal repertoire, combining various “syllables” into “phrases” that don’t repeat. In fact, there is often no similarity between the songs of males whose territories are right next to each other. While the males generally sing from treetops, Red-eyed Vireos forage and nest in the mid- and understory, and require forest habitat with layers of native shrubs and small trees. Their nests are usually built at these lower levels, with layers of foliage above to hide the nest from predators. They raise their young on insects, especially caterpillars and other larvae, before eating increasing amounts of fruit later in the summer, which they subsist on throughout the nonbreeding season. The return of Red-eyed Vireos to their breeding territories in Maine is a yearly reminder that conserving healthy forest #ecosystems is important not only here at home, but also in the neotropical #forests where they spend the rest of their lives."

In other news, I've been using the REAL #BirdApp -- #Merlin from Cornell Labs. So far, I've identified #HouseWren, #AmericanRobins, #NorthernCardinal, #TuftedTitmouse, #PurpleFinch, #EasternTowhee and #RedEyedVireo -- just from my backyard! Some of them are migratory. Will post more about them soon. The #AmericanRobin is nesting next to the house, so that one comes up a lot.

2 months of not using the #birdapp, wow it feels so much better to not see any ragebait
Ja, das war ja der Sinn von Musks 40 Milliarden Dollar Hobby, oder?

@rbreich Dr. Reich's surrogate: please take this post down. As others have said, referring to a post on the #BirdApp drives revenue into a apartheid supporting #RWNJ pocket. None of us here are interested in supporting the Muskrat!
For #Fediverse users, the story was posted on Mastodon yesterday.
Bird Buddy is the superior #birdApp. It's basically TikTok for internet connected bird feeders.
