platypus | (no subject)

I like California squirrels, though they're not like Wisconsin squirrels. All the squirrels here have skinny tails and strange silvery feather/scale markings on their necks. They seem to have almost eerie properties of camouflage.

Steller's Jays are gorgeous. They're the bluest birds I've ever seen. I still can't get a decent picture of one, though.

I increased the resolution of my digital camera pictures, but things still look distressingly grainy in some of my shots. Then I realized that I've got the compression on 'normal' rather than 'fine.' I haven't tried any pictures with the new settings yet; hope they come out better. I can still fit about 90 shots on my 64M card at the highest possible resolution and least compression. That ought to be enough.
