The royal family of the marsh - the largest Trumpeter swan family I've ever seen - 7 cygnets. I can remember when there were no swans in this marsh and this year we had 3 families. #birds

A family of trumpeter swans swim in the sunlight of a fall marsh morning. The adults (white are in the middle of their seven grey cygnets) Two have their bums in the air as they forage under the water.

and on Threads this is the part where you say "and yes they were" as in "they're whiter than a townhouse cracker."

I wonder if Beaker recognizes that they're the same shape of Dog as her.

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.

My brain thought of the muppet or this golden retriever for some reason...

white man holds up mug featuring picture of Beaker from The Muppets and does an imitation of the muppet's frowning face and wide eyes.

A close up of a print showing two panels of a scruffy yellow dog leaning down to sniff sniff a flower, and then opening their mouth to possibly eat it.

Please look at this dog

This is maybe a dog but also maybe some kind of weird collapsible handbag or a slumbering albino kangaroo or a canine pocket dimension, anyway if it is a dog, it’s a dog sleeping in such a way that his back legs are folded up all the way up past his nose which is only possible in an Escher print, anyway his name is Cooper, he is a hound lab mix, he is baby

has anyone done a study yet on these daily word games and a reduction of Brain Diseases chances? Wonder if it would be similar to playing ttrpgs or Attempting to Professor while recovering from a stroke. @swilua.bsky.social @ecfriedman.com

In some ways, these questions may be easier if you either are familiar with their earliest work (baby came out in 2009 or so...) or they are Very Notable in the American Political Commentator Sphere. A Mr. Pike like the fish but an R at the end... Trying not to summon the bots ;)

Misread this as Asthmatics. But no, that's the Johnstown campus of Penn State OR the main Penn West Clarion campus OR most campuses in Pennsylvania.

Same. its why I usually take a long while to "complete" some games. I'm enjoying the story and the atmosphere and taking breaks when I need to. Unlike many who get hyped for a game and then speed through a playthrough in a weekend like my dad hitting the gas to speed past a slow driver.

just started the second flashback sequence and I'm already in a glass case of emotion. Somewhere between Ron Burgundy and the Tenth Doctor who as far as Glass Case gifs go.

There are games that will make you sad, games that will make you sob... and games that will make you WEEP. Like, "you just watched Up for the first time" weep. Forever Ago is one of those games 😭

remember when the only time you heard about a Musk Rat was because it was part of a nature documentary. That was nice. No he hasn't done anything new today, I just saw a post about Horizon Zero Dawn and remembered the villain-ish of that game feels VERY REAL.

🎵 He did the math! the monster math! 🎵 He's a fan of muppets and animatronics too. So in this case the monsters are red, light blue with cookie crumbs, dark blue, and darkish green in a trash can. Also Grover may be someone's first encounter with the name Grover. @kermitment.com

are you allowed to put the Poo Meds in the apple juice? I did something like that once with lemon gatorade. I have no idea why we put the 'ade in the fridge. YOU CAN'T CHUG ICE COLD LIQUID. I mean, you can but its real uncomfortable. Hope you don't need the endoscopy. Its rough.

I was most afraid of Wallace and Gromit and Chicken Run for some reason. I don't know why I was afraid of claymation. The sheep wasn't creepy. Also I was in the 6 to 12 year old range.

Beginning to suspect "we all lived underwater" in the year 3000 is a Good Outcome compared to the more likely scenario of Dune without the Sand Worm / Earth in Starfield.
