Since completing my education, I’ve noticed a decrease in mentally stimulating activities in my daily life. For this reason I’ve been experiencing a sense of cognitive decline, feeling like my mind isn’t being challenged or engaged as much as it used to be. I’m looking for ways to stimulate my brain back. I’m interested in exploring activities that can help, such as reading, puzzles, games, and other intellectually stimulating stuff. Could you recommend some engaging and challenging options to help me get started? Thanks a lot
I started with plants, but moved on to birds and occasional critters like chipmunks. Birds definitely take a bit of patience to get nice shots I find. I post some of my stuff on here https://pixelfed.social/Yogthos
Nice, those are some good bird pics. I like the coloration and little red flourishes on the woodpeckers.
Around me we get a lot of nut hatches, and titmouses which are my fav. They have little mohawks, and are quirky, but brave, as I’ve seen them do david and goliath standoffs with much bigger birds like crows. Not my pic but here’s one
Thanks, I find processing the photos tends to be half the fun. There are a lot of blackbirds around here, and they’re very feisty. Sometimes they’ll even attack hawks, and dive bomb people if they pass to close. But they’ll also eat seeds right out of your hand. And titmouses definitely look neat. I like the color scheme, and the mohawk is very cool. Apparently they do come to Ontario, but I’ve yet to see one myself.
