Alien? Bird assembled incorrectly? Beeker’s cousin? Nope, just a young Green Heron from an awkward angle. What a (delightful) weirdo #SpookyNature 🌿 #birds 👽

A bird viewed from below so that its eyes look like they’re a little below the beak on either side. Which looks kind of freaky.

The head of a deer with a large rack of antlers is partly hidden behind the surrounding leaves in this black and white photo. It looks mysterious and a little threatening.

Sun’s out, bun’s out. This is what that’s supposed to mean, right? 😇 (No that’s really not what it means. Don’t go searching that phrase and expect to see rabbits! Friday nights used to be wild on Bluesky.) #mammals 🌿

A brown bunny has its fuzzy butt towards the camera as it sits in the grass. It’s very cute and alert, looking off to the left.

Looking back at last week's spectacular sunset that I got to enjoy from my kayak. It turned what was otherwise and unremarkable, mostly cloudy sky and uninteresting shoreline into something incredible.

A old dry-docked lake freighter sits on the silhouetted shoreline against the backdrop of a brilliant sunset. It's streaks of orange and deep red, lighting up pillows of clouds with deep blue sky in between. The whole scene is mirrored in the still water of the Icelandic river in the foreground.

Sunrise from the kayak this morning. The waves were a little stronger than I expected, but still managed a lovely paddle. The birds were after rough fish left by one of the commercial fishermen. Everything is eaten.

I love my neighbourhood in this time of year. The poplars are so beautiful.

Looking down gravel road that bends to the left. All along the right side of the road are brilliant golden poplars that shine in the sun and contrast sharply against the bright, blue sky.

Butterbutt. An older comic.

A four-panel comic titled "yellow-rumped warbler poem". In panel 1, a yellow-rumped warbler stands on a branch in a late autumn scene, and says "Fall is here." In panel 2, the warbler watches a brown leaf fall to the ground, and says "Winter's near." In panel 3, the warbler faces the viewer as brown leaves fall, and says "Need some cheer?" In panel 4, the warbler is showing its luminous yellow rump, and cheerfully says "See my rear."
