It was beautiful, I think :) I was sitting on my camp chair in a chain up area when a flock of at least 10 goldfinches flew into a pine tree all at once. I didn't even have the energy to take my phone out of my pocket but they gave me a pretty good show for several minutes...

I was only really sick for 24 hours, felt bad for 48 more, then just had sniffles and low energy. It really wasn't bad... And if you have to be stuck in the middle of nowhere the place I was at was pretty nice.
