No, missed out on that. Must have been 19th or early 20th century thinking.
The little bit of evolution we got in school concentrated on what was
known (or what they thought was known) at that time, with little
attention given to what had already fallen by the wayside.
When I was in school from
Mute swans are much prettier than geese, but in some parts of the U.S.,
including Michigan, they’re just as much a problem. They are not a native
species but were introduced from Europe many years ago and are considered
invasive. They multiply rapidly and have squeezed out the native Trumpeter
A park near us had to eliminate the swans from its pond, because they

Swans are supposedly good to eat, allegedly better than their close relative,
the goose. Some states have opened a swan hunting season. But most those who
wish to dine on swan go for the smaller Tundra Swans.
We went driving around the country side here in Middle TN on Saturday.
We were on the hunt for barns and found some but still want to locate
some better barns. When we turned a curve in the road we spotted this
heifer and a calf next to their barn.

Not only skills, but software too.
Certainly Lightroom (/ACR) has seen some major improvements to its
demosaicing and noise reduction over the years, and I'm sure other software
likewise.
Even given the same settings and skill level, one can get a much better
