Whilst sitting in my office in Aberdeen I used to get regular knocks on the door and people popping in whilst I was trying oh so hard to think intelligent thoughts. Mostly, they just wanted to know how to do something in R - now they just e-mail me... (You know who you are!) But I still get the odd office visitor:
I also have lots of these Yellow-vented Bulbuls on the window during the day (awful picture, I know - though the Mosquito net, but it was pulling bits of the plant to make a nest nearby.)
And in the evenings you can often see these guys keeping the bugs down...
That's before we start thinking of the things I actually see from the window: there's a Silvery-cheeked Hornbill out there right now...
But not one of them has ever asked me for R Code! All in all a much better class of visitor I think...
What colours do they go if you put them on tartan?
ReplyDeleteWe have endless snow and seemingly around a thousand noisy sparrows outside the window. Quite a few rabbits too. R has taken to providing carrots, which will impress our neighbouring farmers no end. It has been a tough winter for wildlife so far and I suspect this will produce a drop in population sizes for quite a few species.
ReplyDeleteThe chameleon on your arm looks rather annoyed Dr. C, I hope you weren't teasing him with Bayesian statistics.
