  @Huw Is this just a "temporary during an update" type of situation? 

  I am at home in a Zoom meeting and not paying attention if you wanted to know.

  Boring meeting? Here's a couple of photos of one of my favorite sets.

  @560Heliport okay how bad is the weather out there?  It’s been a while since we’ve seen a set on a picnic table with enviable scenery.😁

  @Lo1sJess today is nice: sunny earlier, overcast now, temperature 40°F/5°C. I'm at the park, could only see two bison- the rest were probably in a low spot of the paddock. So I walked a little farther, to where the trail is closer to the Mississippi River and saw about 15 large birds- several were adult bald eagles, the rest could have been immature eagles, or turkey vultures (but I don't think they're here this early in the year). They were all standing at the edge of the open water around 500 yards/meters away, so even with binoculars it was hard to see well through the trees. Also many Canada geese and a few trumpeter swans.
  Snow in the forecast through the weekend, so I probably won't be back until next week.

  Sounds wonderful.  We get a fair number of bald eagles here, I’m pretty close to the Potomac river.  Weather has been mostly nice and unseasonably warm.  Plenty of geese but no bison.  Maybe I’ll try a little outdoor building at some point too.

  Woah! And I am just glad to spot the occasional buzzard or hawk over here... The green woodpecker living in the neighbours backyard is pretty cool though.

  @eMJeeNL I’ll have to look up green woodpeckers, I’m pretty sure we don’t have them here or not common.  You likely have several varieties of hawks and vultures but colorations and sizes can be close. My dad has always been big into bird watching so I got it by default.  We split on backyard birds where I am fine feeding common sparrows (the pigeons of backyard birds) I just like the activity and busy chirping.
  
  I am going to try out @560Heliport building in nature style one of these days soon might be just the thing to add some more peace and calm.  As long as I don’t end up losing pieces………🙃

  @Lo1sJess I'm with you on the sparrows- any bird is welcome on my deck. Squirrels too. I've even had a raccoon- and I'm on the third floor! There's a red pine tree next to my deck.
  Four years ago, I was building the brand-new #76126 Avengers Ultimate Quinjet in a state park. After I finished it, I checked the ground to see if I'd dropped anything. I hadn't, but I did find a tan 1x2 hinge plate and a bright green carrot top. If those parts came from the same set, there are three possibilities: #71016 Kwik-E-Mart, #41075 The Elves' Treetop Hideaway... and #10220 Volkswagen T1 Camper Van!

  There's a goose on my roof! Actually he's above the rear entry of the building, next to my bedroom. Photo taken from my deck.

  Very. Now there's at least three on my roof, and it sounds like they're playing tennis. Or basketball. I don't know, but they're loud!
