 Another iPhone shot; this was at the riding school my daughter went to for her annual horse ride. The dog found it sleeping in the long grass just the other side of a fence. The two just stared at each other.

 Not as small as the hummingbird (which frequently perches on the stalk of a leaf rather than even the thinnest of branches), but these lesser goldfinches are still very small.

 @bb1a99d2 Others have done this for a while; my current employer links it with their EMNS and will have campus security alerted for those moving around a university campus. Off campus, you need to provide a mobile number.

Having it in the OS opens it up to everybody. Definitely worth encouraging those walking around alone to use it.

 @d179f556 It works better in rainy scenes like these, but it is a pretty cool effect from what is essentially an error. 😀

 Tokyo in the Rain.

All of these are screen grabs (not even frame grabs) from a live #YouTube camera that I have running a lot. I've cropped out some of the overlay information as it kinda detracts from the scene a little.

Some of these also have the effects of packet loss, creating ghostly figures walking down the street in the rain.
