He was the best guy. Just say there for a good 3 minutes which was enough time to switch to a telephoto and snap this picture. He even pissed* in a few different angles! Just wish the sun was in my favor

*Edit: this was supposed to be "posed" and I'm keeping it for comedic effect

I didn't realize I set myself up for this. What a privilege.

I recommend sharing this on the birding community on Lemmy. They'll like this.

That's a great idea! I need to look up cross posting rules

I saw that you are tried to post it, but the cross-post doesn't seem to have worked. Are you using Eternity by any chance?

[โ€“] [email protected] 3 points 10 months ago (1 children)

I sure am. Is there a better way? Should I just use the web?

Should I just use the web?

For now, that's probably the best option.

Is there a better way?

This bug has been noted and fixed by the dev, and will (presumably) be included in the next release.

Good advice. Thanks
