Last Summer I watched my favourite spider weave a fresh web outside my window every evening at sunset. As she tried to weave one on 4th of July, the sound vibrations from area fireworks' were so strong they shook her & the web too much to finish. She didn't rebuild a web for a couple of days after.

Annual #4thofJuly reminder: 🌟✨Silent fireworks are a (vibrant! festive!) thing.✨🌟 There are other ways to do this - every bit as good & for many (people living w/ ptsd, anxiety, noise sensitivities, pets & wild animals, the environment, asthmatics, and just... anyone who breathes), way better.
"Collecchio, a town in Northern Italy, passed a law to make all fireworks silent. The idea was to reduce stress on pets and the local wildlife. Though the fireworks lack the explosive sound, they are stunning in terms of colour and visual display."

Today's gift!?! Duckie the crow decided to *go for it* & beak-delivered this sizeable & clean-as-can-be curved piece of BONE. 🦴 So... I have a goth crow friend with a penchant for baked goods. Or perhaps this is just how they've sized ~me~ up ;)
