Serious question - is the start of industrial action the best or worst time to join a union? Am I showing solidarity or being a glory hunter?

I can hear you, but listening is a level of commitment I'm just not ready for yet. I've just got out of a long conversation

I was birding Wednesday morning and there was a wild number of raptors around. 3 Cooper's Hawks and I *thought* 3 American Kestrels chasing each other around. Then I looked at my photos and realized it was 2 Kestrels and a Merlin! I haven't seen one for 2 years. SO COOL. #birds
Photo of a Merlin swooping in to dive bomb a Kestrel who had been perched peacefully on a bare branch. The Kestrel has just leaped into the air and has its head craned to look down and behind itself casually, like, "Dude. Rude much?"

This is a Heron in the delta-wing position. Depending on what you read it's done to assist with thermoregulation, digestion, parasite control or drying of feathers. What's for certain is that it makes them hard to take seriously. 🪶

Why does the BBC sounds ad say 'Be the first to hear...' Who cares if they're the first? Why is that a selling point? Logically the people they're appealing to wouldn't listen if they weren't the first, thereby cutting their audience down to a single person. Someone explain it to me.

Landowners release ~50million pheasants a year into the countryside. It’s long past time this was regulated, such as through a stringent licensing regime. The government announced they’d explore licensing earlier this year; this piece is a useful update: www.theguardian.com/food/2026/au...
theguardian.com
New licensing for game shoots could stop poisoning of birds of prey
Scheme planned for England could also curtail tradition of releasing pheasants for people to pay to shoot
