Monarch #butterfly! I've noticed single monarchs circling the front yard for a few weeks; hubby managed to get some pix this time.

Orange butterfly with black veins and white spots (monarch) nectaring on an orange flower (tithonia).

Saw my first robin of the season today while going to an appointment in Boston. Still too much snow on the ground here in the 'burbs. I did see a male cardinal feeding a female in the backyard, so sweet.

Frozen Assabet River, Feb. 20, 2026.

The frozen Assabet River covered with snow with only a bit of open water showing, as seen from the Bruce Freeman Rail Trail bridge. Animal tracks in the snow are visible and the view is framed by bare trees.

Going down to 5 deg F tonite - thought I'd better pick these. Not bad for early December! #gardening #bloomscrolling #calendula

Another comic from this past year. Sometimes I'm in awe about how incredibly small birds can be.

In a comic strip panel, person in a red shirt walks through a sunlit forest. The text says "Sometimes I go looking for a tiny part of the universe." "This part only takes up as much space as: half an apple, a salt shaker, or 2 ping pong balls." Each of these items is shown. Galaxies and stars swirl as the text says "But somehow, in an unfathomably huge universe," and then there's a complex mess of forest leaves, with one tiny Wilson's warbler in one corner, and the text says "this one tiny part". There's a close up of the warbler, blazing yellow against a sparkly yellow background, and the text says "can fill up my whole heart."

This is Oakley. He has an injury that requires physical therapy and at-home massages. Luckily, his cat sibling River has been training his whole life for this. 14/10 for both

When I was a kid I learned that some rehabbers raised Chimney Swift babies by having them cling onto a vest (they usually cling to the inside of chimneys, the bats of birds). I wanted to be that person so bad These swifts are safely warming up after their home was wrecked, and I love that so much.

Video of an eastern cicada-killer wasp paralyzing and hauling away a cicada at St. Boniface Cemetery. (If that sounds scary or creepy … don’t watch!)

This is Cupcake. She overheard you describe something as having more rolls than a bakery. Thinks you better be talking about culinary school. 12/10

I wish I also had video of the other side, showing the ducklings dropping down into the water. That’s quite a long fall for these little ones! I assume they slid or tumbled down that angled wall.

I made a Herring Gull / Keith Haring joke on Twitter and the famous Kaelin M Warde turned it into a sticker you can preorder now. All proceeds to go the Kindling Collective, a queer-center gear library and education center in Maine! campmustelid.shop/products/kei...
