In this recurring column, we highlight a few items we've run across that don't merit a full story of their own but are interesting enough to bring to your attention. This time we look at the South Philippine dwarf kingfisher, David Hockney, Harold Davis, Kirk Tuck and a big Rocky Nook discount.
- Cara Giaimo explains How an Eye Surgeon Got a Picture of This Rare Pastel Bird. "I was so, so thrilled," Dr. Miguel DAvid De Leon said, who had spent three years chasing this shot. "I felt like my chest would explode."
- "Question everything and do not think about photography," David Hockney advising Jonathan Jones in David Hockney Urges Us to Escape Lockdown Through a Pencil. "We need art and I do think it can relieve stress," Hockney said. "What is stress? It's worrying about something in the future. Art is now."
- Harold Davis is Announcing New Online Live Webinars and a few of them are free.
