Another good capture Dave. I posted one of a Burrowing Owl in the last thread.
I've been having computer issues. A few days ago I tried to start the computer and nothing. After some trouble shooting I decided the box was shot, likely the mother board, and picked out a new computer to order. But I went back and did some more digging, including trying another power supply that I had in the closet, and got it to work again. I did have to order a new power supply as the one I was using did not physically fit correctly, but I was able to use it until the new one came. I ordered on with the same part number, but when it arrived one of the connectors had 6 pins rather than the 4 pins required, so I ended up having to cut the 4 pin connector from the old power supply and after selecting the correct wires from the new power supply, modify the 6 pins to 4 pins. While I had the computer all torn apart, I installed an 8TB hard drive to transfer my photos from the existing 4TB drive, which was almost full. It took all day to copy the photos from the old drive to the new. But I finally got it all back together and working. Not a fun way to start the new year.
