I feel sympathy for this young crow, we're currently under a heat warning. We have a bath in the shade set up for them, so it should be okay #birds

It cooled off enough to make no-knead bread - this time with shredded gouda inside and out.

We are fostering Theo, rescued from a colony, and not at all feral, just a chill veteran. I hope @cait.bsky.social approve.

If you see this, quote with a bridge from your gallery. Former railway bridge turned walking trail, Middleton, Nova Scotia.
A small century old bridge made of rusty steel trellises. The tracks have been replaced with heavy wooden planks to allow for pedestrian traffic.

I normally give the crows and Blue Jays peanuts, but it's the coldest day of the winter so far, so I tossed out some bread crusts. I think an occasional carb is ok when they are burning a lot of calories. 🪶

Silo
Dusk, a snowy landscape, the snow appears blue reflecting the sky above. On the horizon, the sun, just set, shines a finger of light into the sky. In the middle distance a silo is silhouetted.

I don't know how you feel about the use of AI in cases like this, but I took the liberty of processing this with Topaz Photo AI. (I try to avoid it normally, but I got license from my son for my birthday)

I almost threw this mug out. It had a thin spot and started to buckle, but I decided to fire and glaze it anyway. I think it turned out ok! #pottery
Two pictures of a hand thrown mug. On the left, clay still soft and damp, there is a band around the mug where the clay was pulled too thinly, and the wall started to buckle leaving some areas with drape like folds. On the right, the mug has had a handle attached and has been glazed a speckled green. The folds have caused areas of deeper green where the glaze has pooled a bit.

I enjoy pottery, not because I'm a good potter, I'm ok at best, still a beginner. I enjoy it because it requires the perfect amount of concentration for me - continuous, but not super intense. And I get to make presents for friends!!

We were visited by this beautiful Red-tailed Hawk a couple of days ago. 🪶
A hawk with brown and white feathers sits perched on grey weathered wood. It peers at us over its shoulder, suspicious but seemingly unafraid.

In the cemetery where I like to walk, there is a spot at the edge of the property overlooking the river that is reserved for stillborn babies. It is both sad and heartwarming in a way. I wonder if there are similar spots where @cait.bsky.social works? (name blurred for privacy)
Several small grave markers in a row next to a wooded slope leading down to a river.
