Finally after several weeks of Ollendorffs, I’m finally getting to some practical and useful Welsh. Now I just need the pandemic to end…

The bobcat and the peacock
While enjoying the morning, I saw a bobcat skulking across the street. He disappeared into the neighbor’s back yard. Moments later, he was followed by a peacock who was honking all the way to warn the neighborhood about the danger. The peacock’s family was about a half a block away doing their morning forage.
A quiet neighborhood photo from the porch. A small bobcat enters the frame at the corner at 11:57:08.
The bobcat walking down the neighbor’s driveway. He’s very easy to see against the white driveway. Taken at 11:57:11.
A close up as the bobcat crosses the neighbor’s yard at 11:57:15.

I swapped it out in July and it should still have had a few weeks/months left in it, but the fires apparently have caked it up. Based on previous changes of filters in the house every 3 months, this looks like about 2 years or more of dust build up. Changed it because the filter seemed to be whistling in the ducting.
