New View Of Hummingbird Nest
While the Hummingbird was still in the nest, she let me tie the plant branches to protect it from the wind. Then while she flew off I took some more pictures of the two eggs.

Hippo Replacement
For my milestone 500th blog post, I took my mom to see the baby hippo, now six days old, at the San Diego Zoo. Got extremely lucky that Funani, the mother, decided to move out of the water and onto the dirt. That gave everyone who waited a chance to clearly see the calf.

Stuck a Fork In January
Flipped all 23 of my calendars to February this morning. Won’t be taking individual month photos any more. It’s getting to be too inconvenient and I wouldn’t remember which one went where.

Handled Some Viennese’s Ball
For the second year in a row I captained the kitchen duty at the San Diego Vintage Dance Society‘s Viennese Nights Grand Ball in Balboa Park. Started out a bit nightmarish but steadily got better throughout the evening. Who knew that upper-crusters could be so ravenous?
