If I didn't take up birdwatching I think I would have completely lost my mind a while ago.

OH MY GOD I FINALLY GOT A SHOT OF A LEAST BITTERN! These things are incredibly hard to even spot, much less photograph. Amazing bird walk this morning.

Lovely pigeon I see around town :) 🪶 #PigeonSky

A white pigeon with a light coloured beak and back markings on its wings, chest and tail. The markings makes it look like he's wearing a little vest.

Eleven years since you crossed the black sands. I wish I could say that the world is better than you left it (although it will always be better for having had you in it) but at least there is a new Young Sam to help carry on the Pratchett name and ethos. Love you always ❤️

Not sure why this person has added me to this list, but I am not a "techno-luddite", lmao. I do not hate people who use technology. I believe GenAI has uses in specific contexts, and saying I have anything against Bitcoin, VR, robots and digital watches is just silly. Anyway, back to bird posts!

Finished is better than terrible #oldknees

A crow kicks a small ball of snow. They then start rolling it into a larger ball while saying "trust the process...". They kick more snow into a pile and stick a branch in repeating "trust the process" to itself. They place small stones. They say "Phew!" and stand back to look at its creation, which we see now is a mess of a project that looks somewhat like a melted bird. The final panel the crow says "haha it's terrible".

We had a very light dusting of snow the other day, so I took the chance to take a few photos of some of the pigeons that visit me for food every morning. These photos show two in particular who are currently regulars in my garden: Marble and Galaxy. #photography #birds #bird

Photo of two feral pigeons stood in a dusting of snow. Both have a mix of white and dark markings. Marble is on the left and Galaxy is on the right.

Photo of a feral pigeon (Galaxy) pecking at seed in a dusting of snow. The pigeon has dark wings, with a white underside and speckling on it's head.

Photo of a feral pigeon (Marble) walking in a dusting of snow. The pigeon is mostly white with a marbling of various different greys and browns.

One more pelican before I put my phone down down for the night. Taken this morning. 🪶

Discworld QOTD, from Hogfather

All right," said Susan. "I'm not stupid. You're saying humans need... fantasies to make life bearable."

REALLY? AS IF IT WAS SOME KIND OF PINK PILL? NO. HUMANS NEED FANTASY TO BE HUMAN. TO BE THE PLACE WHERE THE FALLING ANGEL MEETS THE RISING APE.

"Tooth fairies? Hogfathers? Little—"

YES. AS PRACTICE. YOU HAVE TO START OUT LEARNING TO BELIEVE THE LITTLE LIES.

"So we can believe the big ones?"

YES. JUSTICE. MERCY. DUTY. THAT SORT OF THING.

"They're not the same at all!"

YOU THINK SO? THEN TAKE THE UNIVERSE AND GRIND IT DOWN TO THE FINEST POWDER AND SIEVE IT THROUGH THE FINEST SIEVE AND THEN SHOW ME ONE ATOM OF JUSTICE, ONE MOLECULE OF MERCY. AND YET—Death waved a hand. AND YET YOU ACT AS IF THERE IS SOME IDEAL ORDER IN THE WORLD, AS IF THERE IS SOME...SOME RIGHTNESS IN THE UNIVERSE BY WHICH IT MAY BE JUDGED.

"Yes, but people have got to believe that, or what's the point—"

MY POINT EXACTLY.
