A tornado tore through northeastern Wisconsin on Monday, part of a system of severe storms that knocked out power to tens of thousands of residents, downed trees, leveled buildings and shut down at least one city as it tried to emerge from the damage.

Post-EF3-tornado seems a good time to remind everyone of @animalhelpnow.bsky.social, a free, GPS-enabled app that connects you with licensed wildlife rehabilitators in your area. ✌️

Lindsay Graham was reported dead literally minutes after I went to bed last night, and it's really not doing a lot to help my long-held childhood belief that if i go to sleep I'll miss really cool things.

The literary titan John Irving is still publishing books, and still pushing envelopes, at 83. But you will not see him in the United States anytime soon.

🦇 July is here and this bat season is full-on! Mothers continue to nurse their young - some pups are almost full-size while others are still tiny. This is peak clumsy bat time, as young bats are learning how to fly, venturing out into the world and often getting themselves into tricky situations
