Cancer Posted December 10, 2019 Report Share Posted December 10, 2019 Not really, but it is more sociable than her other snake, a ball python she calls Buckwheat Pancake. And I do not know of any rationale for that name. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cancer Posted December 10, 2019 Report Share Posted December 10, 2019 Another day, another avatar. For reference, this is a turkey vulture that I photographed while we were at the Puye ruins about 18 months ago. (I was too absorbed in marvel when we saw the California condor at Grand Canyon a few days later to even attempt a picture of that.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cancer Posted December 12, 2019 Report Share Posted December 12, 2019 Meanwhile, just read that one of my old teachers passed away last month; other have before, of course, but this was the first of my undergraduate astronomy professors. (A couple of my grad school profs did not last long after I got my PhD.) My first postdoc supervisor passed away last April (he'd gone back to his home turf in Utah).
