Hive anniversary and some recent bird photos

Hello dear friends,

I am so tempted to say My dearest readers (yes, I've been watching "Bridgerton" 😉)

If it wasn't for @hivebuzz, who knows everything, I would miss my Hive birthday. Seven years ago on this day I began my journey on the blockchain with baby steps. Honestly, I did not know what to expect. What I know now is that I gained friends and learned a bit about the crypto. Now, Hive may not be in the levels that we all want, but such is life. More importantly is to stay and keep on going.

One of the biggest assets for me is the knowledge about birds. Finding like minded Feathered Friends Lovers in this community is the best I could wish for. And here I am, hosting a weekly contest. I know I wasn't very active recently. I have too much on my plate right now and my job requires extra hours that eat from my time I dedicate for Hive. Please accept my apologies for answering your comments with delay.

Speaking about the contest, #SMaP in short, there is still time till the round 172 ends. Here is the link, if you have not seen it yet - Feathered Friends - Show Me A Photo Contest Round 172.

Since I was busy outside Hive, I managed to steal minutes from my lunch break to photograph the birds around my office.

Here are some of my late shots.

At first I thought it is a new bird, but Google lens suggested Northern wheatear. I think a young bird, as the parents weren't far and always at the same place. Here is one of them, perching on a metal parts scattered near the warehouse.

Near the entrance of the factory, I was greeted by the blackbird. But this time, I first heard and then saw two young blackbirds. They were squeaking from the branches. Here is one of them.

Although I was trying to stay away and not to disturb it, the parent was on alert and came very close.

Here is a close-up, see the bug in the beak.

And the last image of the blackbird.

I will leave you with the stork couple, who unfortunately have no babies this year. This shot was made from a distance and it is not very clear, but could be seen that the nest is empty. No small storks. Last year was their first brood and they lost the two fledglings in a storm. This year I don't see them very often staying in the nest. The nest seems not big enough, but I read storks return each year in the same place and continue to upgrade the nest adding more twigs. Let's see how it will be next year.

And that is all for now.

Wishing you a lovely weekend and happy birding!

Congratulations on your anniversary and many more exciting and enjoyable years in Hive!
Yesterday I passed through your town... and that's not the only coincidence related to this anniversary.

Happy Happy Hive Bday!
It looks like today is also my 7th Hive Bday. I knew it was coming up but actually thought it was July, yet here we are.
They say no such thing as coincidences, only synchronicities. And it seems "Birds of a Feather" is also true!
My badge still showing greyed out, but I suppose the Badge will update later today or tomorrow.
Hope the rest of your Bday is all you could hope for!

Keep up the good work. 👏🎵

Dear beloved Hive creator,

Coding poet Gudasol here to support you sharing your art + life on Hive.

As a fellow creator, I know how hard it is to get the word out there.

I built cXc.world to help creators like us get more support from the blockchain community + beyond.

Share your music on cXc.world, and copy the Markdown for a easy post includes embedded players for Spotify, Youtube, Soundcloud.

That way, you can earn HIVE + stack streams on centralized platforms, as they do still matter.

Not a music creator? No problem. You can still use cXc.world to find + share music you love.

What's next?

Preview the next evolution of cXc, Tetra.earth.

Expose local music from your area!

We're helping grassroots musicians, and you can too by adding their music (no sign up or WAX account required).

how to add music on cXc.world

Join our community 🐬

Find fellow music lovers in cXc's Discord

Bad news: Saying see you later to Hive! 👋

We didn't get the needed support to continue cXc.world on Hive, as our DHF proposal lacked votes, but [Good News Everyone] cXc.world will add a Markdown copy button, allowing you to easily share your music + music you find on Hive.

For now, we're on WAX, with tools you can use to mint your own Music/Media NFT collection.

I'd love to show you some tips on AI Code generation
