the cold front and pressure shift that should trigger all the birds to bail hits this afternoon. not sure if i’ll be home in time to grab video. in the meantime, the birds are pretty much aerating my yard for free pecking the soft ground for worms, thank you for that

That is, until February 1991, when they were voluntarily recalled after 4 children choked on the lid of the plastic container after biting it off. LifeSavers Holes returned to shelves in the Summer of 1991 with brand-new packaging and an ostensible re-launch

sometimes a notification pops up about one of your old posts with no clear frame of reference and oh no what was this one about?

at 7th grade school lunch me and this kid eddie would pick out our two favorite chips from our nachos, dunk them upright in the cheese, and save them until the soggy end. we actually talked about it, this was regularly discussed (eddie went on to later kill a man, but i’m here, right!?)

i didn’t even know what was happening the first time i witnessed it. i thought it was end times and had to look it up. the bird’s collective sudden displacement of air is called a ‘murmuration roar’ and the shockwave is one of the loudest sounds in the animal kingdom

there are hundreds, maybe thousands of mostly black birds staging themselves for migration in the two big oak trees next door. the trees look alive with movement and the noise is distracting. once pressure drops from upcoming storms they’ll all leave at once and it sounds like a jet engine roaring

This week, let’s have a look at some of the most dramatic plants in the Americas. I’m talking about Agave. They are fibrous, herbaceous perennial rosettes with large, nectar- & pollen-rich flowers that sustain insects, birds & bats. #Agave #Asparagaceae #Botany 🌾🧪🌱
Photo of Agave sp. in full bloom in a garden setting. The plant is a rosette of long, stiff, pointed leaves. The very large, erect inflorescence arises from the rosette and bears lateral branches holding clusters of yellow flowers. Photo by Scott Zona CC BY-NC 2.0.

in a clear cup setup you can watch the root system develop. it’s reassuring and removes the guesswork whether things are on track underground during the weeks/months where things above ground change very little, or not at all
a close up of a clear plastic cup filled with a gritty mix of: pumice, calcined clay, lava rock, monto clay, and perlite

tan and white roots can be seen at various points emerging from the gritty mix, branching and exploring the cup wallsa wider view of the same cup where you can see the entire cup and rooted holly(ilex opaca) cutting
