Bright things

SE29 branches

Screenshots from Sydney White-bellied Sea Eagle nestcam.

The older eaglet has discovered perching on a branch! He hasn't ventured very far out of the nest yet, but it's an important step towards fledging. He's been visiting the branch several times, and little sibling SE30 has been paying attention, so perhaps she'll soon start joining him in exploring the nest tree.

There he is again this morning.

Standing around is the new lying around

Traffic at the raptor paddock

JWE moviepark things.

Fence inspection. Still seems broken. :)
Meanwhile, the Velo paddock gets a new resident. (Nice hat!)
New sister! Or, old sister - turns out she's alive and has just been at another facility for a while because of reasons. This is another mod, which adds a skin based on Subject V-2's design to the game as new cosmetic variation. As this is already an AU where the I. rex sibling is alive and the Indoraptor prototype was created on Isla Nublar, I named her Victoria.

Ironically, while V-2's design has more of a JP headshape, this cosmetic variation uses the JW model, while the raptors actually appearing in JW have just gotten a model replacement more based on the JP headshape. But I'm sure she'll fit right in.

Reunion borks.

Loafings and hints of flight plans

Screenshots from the past week and a half at Sydney White-bellied Sea Eagle nestcam. Includes a few views of prey.

Eaglets SE30 (front) and SE29. SE29 is 7 weeks old, SE30 a day short of that.

Now makeovering the raptors themselves

I'm still continuing my second attempt at Isla Sorna jurassic difficulty challenge mode. Progress is being made, but these tourists sure have high demands for their dino entertainment. I'm going to start needing to make whole packs of Indominus rexes soon.

Incoming non-dinosaur-related accident!
Also against my initial better judgement, I have made Velociraptors! I already have four rexes (two T. ones and two I. ones), and with the stress inhibitor gene they are much more manageable than I'd feared, even during storms - so, raptors? Sure, why not. No doubt they will eventually find a way to cause problems on purpose, but hopefully not before I've gotten to five stars.

Notice anything different? A new mod! This one, too, is for raptors, because no such thing as too many nice things for my favorite children.

The mod is this model and texture replacement, and this girl here sports the arid skin.
