Practicing my bird-in-flight photography with the great blue heron that hangs out in the creek behind the house. I figure I'll start with the biggest bird around. I got it in frame. Making progress.

I'm sorry, but "they took over the whole federal payments system, fired the career staff, and won't let anybody see what they're doing" is not a situation in which you wait for more information. It's a situation in which you assume the worst. There's no explanation for it other than rampant crimes.

i think it is important to say that the open and explicit racism of the president and the vice president isn’t just uncouth or “controversial” but a direct attack on tens of millions of americans and a dereliction of their duty to represent the entire country

Reporters: Please stop calling things DEI that are not DEI. This is only cementing the propaganda being used to legitimize the dismantling of all types of initiatives that are not DEI as well as legitimize efforts to end civil rights enforcement. Be specific with your language. Be accurate.

Black-crowned Night Heron at Dawn. Sepulveda Wildlife Reserve, Los Angeles. (This is pre-fires; the air quality has been poor since, so I haven’t yet visited to see what survived.) #birds #photography #fujifilm
A medium sized heron with a black cap and light grey front, facing the camera and looking to its left. The lighting is low key with a golden dawn glow.
