Gems — Farm Guardian's best frames

Gems

The S7 cam — aimed at the big water bowl in Birdcatraz — feeds a local VLM that scores every frame; the keepers go to Discord, and the Boss reacts to the ones worth keeping. Every frame below got that human reaction — the machine nominates, a person decides. Captions are machine-drafted and unedited.
