    Lots of activity on the live cam (time of this posting). I’ve never seen 9 mourning doves feeding all at the same time. A couple of woodpeckers, too. Darn, something spooked them. (for now) See you there, if you happen by in the next 10 minutes or so.

    Love this quote by Endall Beall...

    "Where the modern field of psychology goes wrong is that it seeks to create harmony in the minds of disturbed and uncomfortable egos, seeking to heal and pacify the ego so it can fit comfortably back into it's world of illusion. Psychologists, as I have stated in my other works, are nothing more than ego repairmen."

    Mourning Doves Fill The Cornell Feeders - (under 2 min.)
    Mourning Doves are gregarious foragers, but they don't always pack the feeder platform as you see in the this clip. These small, plump doves forage for natural food sources almost entirely on the ground, and you'll often see them cleaning up scattered seed below bird feeders. [Live Cam here]

    Watch LIVE at http://AllAboutBirds.org/CornellFeeders for news, updates, and more information about the pond and its surroundings.

    This FeederWatch cam is located in the Treman Bird Feeding Garden at the Cornell Lab of Ornithology. Perched on the edge of both Sapsucker Woods and its 10-acre pond, these feeders attract both forest species like chickadees and woodpeckers as well as some species that prefer open environments near water like Red-winged Blackbirds.

Me observing through the window! Not sophisticated as you with the camera! I don't know if the dogs would be barking! They bark at everything else! Lol! The humming bird feeder worked halfway decent this Summer! I got a Cheap one and it started leaking! Fascinating! Hummingbirds! Will invest in a better one next Summer! Robins still nested in my trees out back! Maybe that is why, I didn't have so many worms in my garden! Lol! More bird stories? Would be appreciated!

    Question: “How do you discern genuine “entities” and what you call “players”?

    “In their presence I felt a calm sense of power in my own self that made me feel that I could stand completely alone in the universe I and would be ok and that is a million times more valuable than feeling emotionally “loved”.

    “When you meet someone, trust is something that is earned and something that is built between people. That doesn’t mean that every stranger is untrustworthy, but it means to exercise caution when dealing with strangers. The etheric realm is no different.”

    "In the material earthly realm, con-artists and sociopaths know from a psychological standpoint, how to sooth a person’s hapiym in order to gain that person’s trust. That is why con-artists and sociopaths play on the emotions"

    “None of us have all of the answers and someone else may have a perspective on information that we have floating around our heads that we never thought about. It is through the conversations that we gain a better insight into information we have an understanding on, explaining it to someone else, or having them share their perceptions that we all get a greater understanding of the information.”

    Definitions:

    Psoyca - Psoyca (sōy-kah) is both an acronym and a word with a broader definition for cognitive advancement. As an acronym mean Personal Sovereignty Over Oour Cognitive Advancement. Psoyca is a word that replaces the word spirit in the vernacular of defining advancing consciousness for the Second Cognition. Psoyca removes all the mystical connotations that the word spirit presents to the study of cognitive advancement. (defined here)

    Hapiym - Hacker Program in Your Mind - The Hapiym mind virus has controlled our consciousness since our species was created. It’s come about at the hands of the ancient gods and the inorganic hive mind of the cosmic hapiym collective has kept humanity subservient throughout the ages with all their doctrines of divine submission.


    In the early days on my path, I was so enamored with my ability to communicate with higher dimensional beings that I would speak to anyone who would speak to me. I had zero discernment where these entities were concerned. If they spoke to me in a manner of telling me how special I was and how loved I was, they were my new BFF.

    When I began working with my guide friends, after they went through their period of silence that I explained in my book The Energy Experience, I began to become more aware of how differently they treated me in comparison to how these other entities treated me. Although I felt a sense of comfort in their presence, it wasn’t an emotional feeing of love and they didn’t tell me I was loved. They didn’t tell me I was special, or that I had a purpose, or anything whimsical like that. They didn't massage my hapiym. They always spoke to me with a sense of pragmatism and a sense of patience. Energetically speaking, I didn’t feel energies from them that made me giddy and lose my senses to the feel goods of emotions. In their presence I felt a calm sense of power in my own self that made me feel that I could stand completely alone in the universe I and would be ok and that is a million times more valuable than feeling emotionally “loved”.

    [snip]

    Here in the earthly human realm, we are taught as children not to trust a stranger. We are taught this because humans, for the most part, cannot be trusted. When you meet someone, trust is something that is earned and something that is built between people. That doesn’t mean that every stranger is untrustworthy, but it means to exercise caution when dealing with strangers. The etheric realm is no different. Because of the way that we are conditioned as children and by society as an adult, we exercise this caution when dealing with other people, but because anything beyond the 3D realm is considered 'higher' than us lowly humans, people do not carry that same sense of pragmatism and caution when dealing with the higher dimensional realms. From my experience, that pragmatism and caution should be stronger when dealing with the outer realms because they go outside of your 5 senses so you must use your intuition as your main source of sensory determination and discernment. The obedience to authority syndrome is particularly dangerous when dealing with higher dimensional consciousnesses.

    In the material earthly realm, con-artists and sociopaths know from a psychological standpoint, how to sooth a person’s hapiym in order to gain that person’s trust. That is why con-artists and sociopaths play on the emotions of other people in order to gain their trust. If you stroke someone’s hapiym and make them feel good, they are going to let down their guard and extend trust…

    [snip]

    On my path, when I began to question the random “drive-by” entities about their messages or why they chose to seek me out to share their message, I would have one of four things happen:
    1. They would tell me how awesome I am (not in those exact words).
    2. They would answer my question with a riddle.
    3. They would do a red herring that is typical in politics, you know reroute the question back to their message without actually answering my question.
    4. They would get nasty with me and make personal attacks on my character, the same way every predictable hapiym does.
    More persistent questioning would always send these entities running for the hills. My guides, and guide friends on the other hand were different. They never riddled me anything. When I asked questions, I got answers I could understand and that made sense. They always answered my questions plainly and concisely without rhetoric and even when I got belligerent with them with the questions, they never got nasty with me or made any personal attacks on my character. Last but not least, they always came back when I had questions or just to talk. The greatest difference between the players and my guide friends is that they never lied to me, even if I didn't like the answers to the questions I asked. They didn't schmooze my hapiym.

    When you look at the channeled messages in the new age, you will notice the commonality between the different messages and how these entities speak in riddles. You will also notice how these New Age guru’s do the same thing. If someone asks a questions they will throw out riddles or enigmatic-speak because they do not have answers. When I asked my guides or guide friends questions that they did not know the answer to, they would tell me “I don’t know, but I’ll find out” and get back to me, until I reached a point in my development that they would ask me what I feel about it myself. Then once I pondered on it within myself, we would share what I get about it and what they get about it and we would have a conversation to work it out from our different or similar perspectives.

    We don’t have all the answers within in us, but we do have the capability to discover the answers for ourselves within our being, if there even is an answer. It takes critical questioning, even of your own perceptions of your own intuitional insights in order to get to the intuitive knowing. Sometimes it helps working it out with others in order to do that. That is what Endall and I do and that is what makes us a great team, even though we are individuals and perceive things in different ways and no, we do not always agree with each other on our individual perspectives.

    The same can be said for talking to other people on their psoyca paths. None of us have all of the answers and someone else may have a perspective on information that we have floating around our heads that we never thought about. It is through the conversations that we gain a better insight into information we have an understanding on, explaining it to someone else, or having them share their perceptions that we all get a greater understanding of the information.

    Hi Roy, I’ve got sort of a bird story or more of an update …

    I expanded the bird condo today. I added a couple of branches. Several days ago an early Christmas present arrived for them. It’s a 14” bird bath that’s low to the ground. I got excited when a sparrow took a few quick gulps.

    I added one way window treatment to the door and kitchen window for an up close view of the little ones. It was cloudy today, so it might be hard to make out these shots of cardinal and bluejay.






    Speaking of great camera shots and cardinals, this is a relaxing video of lots Eastern Bluebirds, some peck at the camera. There’s a male cardinal @ 23 minutes.


    Early morning of blizzard Juno aka Colbie
    With very little editing...mostly eastern bluebirds with a nice SNOWY male cardinal shot at around the 23 minute mark

    My little bird has left the nest for a whole month to join her love in Switzerland. First time in her whole life and in almost 21years for me that she is gone for so long (her dad never took her for vacations or Christmas holidays or even for whole week-ends). We have been pretty much together all these years

    The nest feels real empty...snif snif. But on the other hand I am very happy for her.

    Empty nest. It’s not an experience you can really know until you’re in it. Weird, huh?

    Mini-Flash isn’t so mini. We’ve watched her grow up through high school, college, record music, travel adventures to England. And now? A month long visit to Switzerland, experience love and partnership.

    How fortunate you both are to have a strong bond between mom and daughter. A daughter that’s bright, confident and beautiful inside and out.

    Ya done good, Mom.

First time in her whole life and in almost 21years for me that she is gone for so long (her dad never took her for vacations or Christmas holidays or even for whole week-ends). We have been pretty much together all these years

    The nest feels real empty...snif snif. But on the other hand I am very happy for her.
    Empty nest is a strong, deep feeling. I feel for you.

    I was a single parent, and when my son moved out, I cried a lot until I got used to it.

    If I could, I would sing you a song. Surely that would make you laugh cuz I can't sing!😲🎵🎶🎼

    Hearts to you❤️💙💛💜💚❤️💙💛💜💚Flash. That's big.

    Today I went for a walk and met 3 new people and spoke to a couple of others that I already knew. Book store, new coffee shop/restaurant with organic food, and a new record store. Small town...new community...something is building. It's another new phase for me, too.

    It's good to see new things emerging out of the 💩--news stories--that will soon be the past. Looking forward to our purified world. 👼

    Thank God for all the good people!😍😘😍😘😍

    Back to birdy-watching, I’ve seriously gone back to reinstating my birdy-paradise that went through vast drums of organic food in my olde garden, so now have reinstated Dad’s olde rockery, I am in a position to put pole feeders, to accompany the giant birdie bath now in situ. New nesting boxes ready to be affixed to my extension out of reach of naughty cats and marauding birds, with lots of covering evergreen bushes nearby. Exciting times for my local birdies..😀😀😀

    hard not to say yes.

    Hard not to think we have been given the ULTIMATE propaganda delivery method, one that is so tightly controlled that even though it seems like there are vast options to choose from, every option is designed or allowed with agenda.

    TV was too obvious, with the internet we FEEL like we are picking and choosing, sneaking propaganda (basically a form of mind control) in that way is much more sinister. And with the ability to monitor all activity, it's far worse than any 1984 concept.... even worse than the "TV wall" that watched you... we carry it in our pockets, everywhere; we sleep with it, we go to the bathroom with it....

    Hard not to say yes.
