Lot of open spaces and stocked ponds and lakes, we have many raptors in our area. Think most of them nest in the in the more remote areas, we don't see many immature birds.
Bald Eagle Vocalization is under the "quick facts" heading.

D north has a long and sordid history:
"2009: A pair of eagles establishes the Decorah North territory, building a nest in a white pine tree.
2011: The branches holding the nest collapse. The eagles build a new nest in a dead elm tree.
2013: The tree falls. The eagles begin a new nest in a white oak tree.
2015: Cameras are added to the North nest in very early fall.
2018 (August): The nest falls out of the tree.
2018 (September): .... Arnal and Amy Ries build a starter nest.
2018 (October): The eagles adopt it.
2018 (unknown): A female eagle we call DNF replaces Mrs. North

    Morning shinies :)

    Love your new tagline @Letitia :lol:


    Built the project x this morning. No idea if I've done it right, but so far it's not leaking, not dry hitting and is giving me awesome flavour :thumb: It's bringing out a completely different profile than the doggy does with the same mix, which is awesome.

    How is the airflow on it? Comparable to 2.3mm airflow in the Smidgy’s?

    Airflow wise, it actually vapes really really similar to the doggy, so it's probably around the 2.5mm id hole. I think it has 3 x 1.3mm airflow holes on each side. You'll love it ;)

    Guess the X will have to be moved from wishlist to next order list. I can't remember, is there a glass option yet?

    Morning Shiny's! :)

    Hope all have an awesome day. :wub:

    Waiting for the morning dew to dry so I can mow my lawn.
    Drinking my coffee earlier and was just daydreaming + looking out my kitchen window and I noticed a red tailed hawk in the yard. Was a big one, female (always larger than males). She just hung around for a while and then flew off. They are an amazing bird of prey.
    Here, not the one in my yard nor my photo...

    They are magnificent birds but I don’t want them anywhere near my yard. I’ve already had 3 land on my deck and garage roof. It was amazing how big they are really up close. I scan the sky and tree tops when I take the pups out because I have rabbits living under the addition which is a good food source but I also have 2 yorkies and red tailed hawks have attacked small dogs and cats. I absolutely won’t leave the dogs outside on their own. If I see one circling above then I scream like a nutjob to get my little ones in the house! It sounds funny but it was actually my vet who warned me about hawks. I had been living in Boston and we had pigeons flying around not dog eating predators!!

    And back to Shiny - my informed mail says three packages are coming and I have no idea what they are so I guess I’ll just have to be surprised.

    I did purchase the Cthulhu awhile ago and a couple of chips for it so it could be that. Other than that and some drip tips. That’s about all I can think of but I could’ve sleeped shop again so go only knows what’ll be in the mail.

    It feels like my birthday or Christmas which I don’t celebrate anymore. It’s get long in tooth celebrating by myself again.

    So the vape mail is my holidays! Pretty rationalization lol!!

    sounds like a rainbow would look good on your silver mods.:)

    I never was crazy about the rainbow finish now I have many of my favorite RBAs in rainbow. It makes it matchy match better.

    I also got a very very welcome four-legged shiny last night :wub: She's 13 weeks old, very shy, fluffy and sweet. She's being treated for conjunctivitis, so not looking her best, but she's just awesome :D

    Here's her adoption pic ;)

    Thank you enabler lol! I ordered it along with the 4ml extension kit from FT. Thanks for posting about it. Otherwise I wouldn’t have known about its existence :thumbs:

    Sadly not Letitia. Options are PMAA or PEI. If you look at the tank section of the PEI you can see why there is no glass option due to those small O-ring inserts.

    $2.90 Coppervape Replacement PEI Tank for Hussar Project X RTA Atomizer - 1.5ml at FastTech - Worldwide Free Shipping

    $3.35 Coppervape Replacement Extended PEI Tank for Hussar Project X RTA Atomizer - 4ml at FastTech - Worldwide Free Shipping

    Only other alternative is the standard 5ml Hussar with the full metal tank option. Flavour profile is very similar to the Project X, at least imo with fruity vapes.

    Another option is Evl Reaper V3, there is a glass tube on FT for that one.

    I'm a city boy. I thought Raptors were those Jurassic Park things.

    But I guess they sorta evolved from them so why not.

    And I don't care whether they're endangered, protected, or whatever, if one of those came near my dog it'll be deep fried and ready by dinner.

    I'm so happy for you. I bet Abby is/would be (depending on your belief system), too.

    And what a nasty dinner it would be.
