      My guess was a Great Horned from the overall shape and the color of the facial disc. The low classic hoot is going to be them.

              Sorry Santa Cruz, thought it was obvious since that’s where you were but I guess this community is not location-based at all! My bad.

                oh no worries, i just travel a bit for work, didn’t want to assume you were here.

                these beaches are great camping spots, no?

                also you’re not married to a lumpy dude, are you? your username is pretty close to what my wife would choose and i don’t like combing through people’s comments.

                  I mean my hubby isn’t thin (we’re in our 40s) but I’m not sure I’d call him lumpy, ha! My username is quite old, from when I was in high school and got mad when people would tell me blonde jokes, as I’d feel they were making fun of me. It’s from an era when AIM only allowed ten characters 😂

                    if you wouldn’t call him lumpy, it’s not me (surgical scars gave me some fun new lumps). no worries. my wife is a proud blonde too, and she uses similar reasoning to yours around blonde jokes. for some reason (i wonder why) it’s never a blond joke.

                    we like the one where (forgive the horrible delivery) there’s a blonde hopping alongside the railroad tracks chanting 34! 34! 34! and a brunette stops and just stares and stares until she gets hit by a train and the blonde starts chanting 35! 35! 35!
