I’ve made Yerba mate in my Moccamaster before, just have to clean it real well before you do. It comes out really good and better tasting than if I steep.

What’s the water in the carafe for, are you heating it for something?

I’ve been looking for those all the past 2 months. Got to see some hooded merganser’s instead though so I can’t complain.

I miss all the fly catchers

My Moccamaster booklet says to, so I do it.

t’s to not take away from the bloom. If your filter is dry then your first coffee goes in to the filter and not in to your carafe/cup.

I still haven’t been to Stoney. I grew up downriver so I spent more time at Erie and Willow.

I don’t mind paying. Macomb county is ugly so it’s nice to have a little slice of nature and I’ll support that. It does wonders for my sanity.

The Ford House is a really nice spot for birding too.

We’ve been having a Cooper’s Hawk visit our yard lately, my wife and I have been loving it.

I’m always on the look out for Kestrel’s too.

I never made that correlation, they sound really cool. Bald eagles, on the other hand, sound very underwhelming.

I never knew that. That’s pretty cool.

I must say, I will appreciate more descriptive names when trying to identify certain birds.

This sounds almost identical to my journey.
