Probably more helpful to think of them not so much as “Canadian wildfires” but rather “climate change wildfires currently consuming Canada”

I made this Pride flag using only NASA images and our team thought it would be cool to share on social (I work on the NASA heliophysics communications team), but it's getting all sorts of hate on the bird app and Fbook. Thought y'all might be more appreciative of it here. ☺️🏳️‍🌈💖

A pride flag with every color band represented by a NASA image. White is Earth clouds, pink is aurora, blue is the Sun in a specific wavelength, brown is Jupiter clouds, black is the Hubble deep field, red is the top of sprites, orange is a Mars crater, yellow is the surface of Io, green is a lake with algae, blue is Neptune, and purple is the Crab Nebula in a specific wavelength.

The immune system is not a muscle. It is a cleansing fire. It causes collateral damage. It has a limited supply of fuel. It can get out of control. Don’t burn your whole house down every time by catching every disease without caution.

Alberta could: 1) Diversify its economy 2) Raise the income tax rate 3) Increase the corporate tax rate 4) Increase the royalty rate 5) Introduce a sales tax Instead, it’s blaming immigrants. This is racism. This is xenophobia. This is shameless avoidance of responsibility. This is not my Alberta.

Form and feathers, reddish egret edition #birdoftheday #birds

Reddish egret seen from behind, floofed maximally, facing right. This bird has a light gray back, long light green legs disappearing into lightly rippled water, a reddish neck that grows more red toward the head, a nice red-orange crown, a long dark daggerlike beak, and a bright yellow eye. His feathers are standing on end from his tail to his crown, making him look like he just got out of the shower.

Winter raptors like Snowy Owls and Rough-legged Hawks travel thousands of kms to winter in these areas - mainly because of the mice and voles. Unlike the raptors that get loads of clicks and likes - the undervalued rodents get next to no love at all!

This 737 came into service in 1979 with PWA in Edmonton. It was retired from Air Canada’s service in 2005. The aircraft became part of an exhibit at the Alberta Aviation Museum. In 2013, the aircraft was flown to Villeneuve where it now sits. #abandoned #Alberta #yeg #history #plane #airplane
