Images from mid-June 2024. The spots on the sun in the first picture are actually sunspots. I checked them against the current sunspot maps at the time.

First bird is a barn swallow and the other is a killdeer. Named from their cry. They don't actually kill deer just so you know

A barn swallow sat still long enough for me to get a picture!
