11/03/2024-Home and Lakeside
Photos taken in this set are of; stunning skimmia in the garden, view at Lakeside including nice blossom, one of the amazing snake's-head fritillaries at Lakeside at lunch time adorned by water droplets, a Chiffchaff I was thrilled to see a couple of flitting around making me hopeful for spring alongside all the flowers around, Canada Geese, an unforgettable sunset to see out a grey day which I had the pleasure of observing with trees against the strip of orange sky on an evening walk at Lakeside and at home and a beautiful orange centred daffodil at Lakeside.
On a super day of seeing a variety of wonderful birds at Lakeside across both my evening and lunch time walks I also loved seeing for the first time for me in one day here fabulous Firecrest in my strong start to the year I've had for them and Goldcrest, my first Reed Bunting here for years a lovely male this evening, Redwing a winter bird I've had a sensational winter for especially here contrasting well the traditional springtime bird Chiffchaff, Great Tit, Robin, Blackbird and Song Thrush on a strong day of thrushes, Magpie, Great Crested Grebe and Moorhen with Wren and Green Woodpecker heard. Periwinkle, laurel, possibly my first blackthorn of the year and intricate turkey tail were good to see too. Jackdaw and House Sparrow were good to see at home today.

Hornblower (TV series) would be greatly improved if it just abandoned the books altogether and instead turned into a show about Hornblower and Bunting getting into an exceedingly ideologically-charged relationship

Since it’s a holiday weekend, I was able to go to the arboretum TWICE this week. Here is my birb haul (along with some additional goodies)
I was so happy to see the goldfinches again!

There are nine in this picture. NINE:
Maybe ten? I don’t know, there are SO MANY:

This little Acadian flycatcher was so nice, and flew in close for me to get a good picture of him:

14th April 2023: Aberdeenshire
Photos taken in this set: 1. Razorbills, Guillemots and Kittiwake in a wonderful seabird nesting colony fix right at the end of the Heatherlea Spring Into Scotland tour at Troup Head one of favourite places to be with some of the species I love best and captivate me the most. 2. Konik ponies I enjoyed seeing at RSPB Loch of Strathbeg I’ve heard a lot about them before. 3. View from Cairnbulg. 4. A Corn Bunting we saw extremely well including singing nicely at Banff, one of the revelations of the trip for me seen on the last day of it and a bird I love seeing. 5 and 6. Gorse dominated coastal scenes at Troup Head I did love the bright gorse of Scotland last week it was so good to take in. 7, 8 and 9. Fulmars, Gannets and Puffins respectively the other half of my super six seabirds alongside Guillemot, Razorbill and Kittiwake the birds that first inspired me and I first really took to my heart in my early birding days that it was a pleasure to see last Friday really heartfelt experiences seeing them and nice to see them at a colony further north than I ever had. The Fulmars were elegant wonders dominating those last two days of the tour, the Gannets were heartening to see and be immersed in after their struggles generally last year and the Puffin a bird I have such a strong connection to and love for was the surprise but perfect ending to our trip such charismatic and colourful birds to observe always. 10. View from Kinnaird Head on a great sunny visit there.
That day I also enjoyed seeing Sandwich Tern, Pink-footed Geese, Marsh Harrier, passerine birds like Yellowhammer and Tree Sparrow seen well at Loch of Strathbeg and Skylark that day too, Hooded Crow, Common Seal, Roe Deer seen from my hotel room in the morning at Nethy Bridge, scurvygrass and lesser celandine.

Ship meme thing! Get the template here.
So turns out these were a lot bigger than I thought sooooo we posting them one at a time to save space. It also conveniently leaves me more room to ramble about specifics under this
So! Let's go down from the top, I have lot I want to mention lol.
As said, they met during CT quests but only ended up dating after ShB events. ARR G'raha was a brat who was too focused on future to even think about relationships and Hawu'li hadn't lost anyone yet so he took his time with showing his interest. They parted as friends, and G'raha's well being was one of the first things Hawu'li asked about after meeting Exarch.
Hawu'li is canonically couple centimeters shorter than the min height allowed in-game. Based on my own comparisons of them standing side by side I'm pretty sure G'raha is min height (Exarch is little taller, guessing that's because no catboy slouch).
G'raha being bi - this is more of a general note but since the game understandably does not define any of their sexualities I usually default to just calling all npcs who show any interest to WoL bi.
Affection - I originally thought about just painting the whole chart purple bc Hawu'li is so so so affectionate. If you let him he'll touch you almost constantly (holding hands, tail wrapped around your limbs, small kisses to cheek/forehead, constant words of affection etc) but he's also very considerate about some of his partners disliking pda (limits it to behind closed doors if asked). G'raha seems more verbal type, mostly bc he still feels shy touching someone he's been idolizing for so long.
First to confess - G'raha confesses right around the last quests of 5.0 MSQ. First "love" said goes to Hawu'li though - G'raha stumbles on his words long enough for Hawu'li to just interrupt with "I love you too, you know. No need to be so shy about it."
Propose - Hawu'li is actually not that interested on marriage (after growing up on family where that was not a big thing) but he is the first one to ask for a keepsake as a mark of their bond. G'raha got a ring to keep as a necklace (with the "new adventure, together" carved inside it) and Hawu'li got a red, crystal speckled piece of thread to add to his braclet (hand woven with one thread for each person he dates seriously, him asking you to pick a thread for it is a big thing)
What else uhhhhh...
Sunkitty gets up early, moonkitty likes sun but tends to sleep long.
Hawu'li will be whatever spoon you want as long as he gets to cuddle
Being almost same size they tend to steal each other's clothes regularily, sometimes accidentally (G'raha's shyer to do it tho)
Hawu'li needs attention or he will die, luckily G'raha also needs it after pining for so long
