The Dailies

Word of the Day

Mordent (n., MORE-dent)

A quick alteration of a note where the note immediately below the first note is played. It's like a trill, but it goes down. As they say, if it's not Baroque, fix it.

Link of the Day

Bruce the Eagle photographed perfectly symmetrically

Sometimes, you're in the right place at the right time. Amateur photographer Steve Biro happened to be in the right place to catch Bruce the Eagle swooping down at the Canadian Raptor Conservancy, grabbing this stunning photo:

Says Biro:

I snapped a couple images from the side and decided I wanted to get a vantage point where I might be able to shoot him more straight on. There was a large rock right at the water’s edge were I laid down beside and rested my upper body on trying to get as low as possible.
