A Great Blue Heron! FB memory from eight years ago. I was making a video of one of my Caracaras when suddenly there it was!

Omigosh! It's been "dead" for quite a while, then suddenly it started moving! Startled the daylights out of me. I think I'll put it back outside...

The Olduns have suddenly begun laying! (Ignore the white one. It's from a different group - the Westuns.) They haven't laid eggs in probably 7 months, or more! AND, they're laying dark brown eggs! They used to lay beige eggs. How weird is that?!

I'm going to risk it! I'm going to put the trail cam out. It sure looks like rain, but the hourly forecast says no...& I think I'll trust it. Famous last words. If that crazy raccoon drags it out of its little structure, it will probably then POUR rain for hours. Well we'll see what happens.

Just a tad over two inches over the past couple of days, and suddenly there's green stuff everywhere! It's 71° right now with light breezes, and it's gray and misty. Awesome

Lens says it's a Green Lynx Spider. Well, it is so totally not green...but maybe it's a Green Lynx Spider going through a molt or something, and so it doesn't look very green. Whatever it is, it's on the ceiling. Hope it doesn't fall on me while I'm sleeping. #greenlynxspider #Spider #arachnid

🚨 BREAKING NEWS: A federal judge just HALTED the destruction of Big Bend. This is a massive victory for the landowners, local communities, and everyday Texans who stood up to protect one of our state's greatest treasures. The fight isn't over, but today, the people won.
Graphic from the Center for Biological Diversity over a scenic view of Big Bend. Large text reads, “MASSIVE WIN FOR BIG BEND.” Below, it says a federal judge has frozen all destruction throughout the Big Bend region until the project’s legality can be determined in court. The graphic adds that the Center will continue fighting to save Big Bend and asks supporters to join them.

You know how people say that when your computer or phone do weird things, just turn them off a few seconds & then re-start? Et voila, all is well. But in the car it's not that easy! You have to pull over somewhere and park and then turn it off, and then when you turn it back on, its still wonky.

It's like the auto-mobile-computer I drive around. So many beeps & dings to warn me my elbow is touching the seat belt or something equally as unnecessary. It trains you to ignore warnings. And you know, it's really not that helpful. I'm alert when I drive, & I know if the car I front of me has

Oh blast, I clicked "repost" on the wrong post in my feed. I have clicked "hide post for me" on my page. Does that mean it is hidden from me only? Or is it removed from my BlueSky page so no one will see it here? Or what. I don't want people who look at my posts to think I meant to post that...

The very most unhingedly hopeful version of myself pretends that behind the Heritage Foundation is a larger, more longer-playing shadow group of matriarchists who smoothed the way for HF and the patriarchy to shed the mask and trip on its own dick, making civilization fall, with the lessons beat in.

Only listening to music 'til at least tomorrow morning. Too much tension from current events & commentary. I feel ill. In a bit I'm going to try to put the duvet cover on the comforter...that should elicit a few "magic" words! Probably be therapeutic. Or make me feel even more tense & angry. 😱

This is just lovely but doesn't quite have the depth and body that an organ gives it. With brass instruments, it seems more winter holiday-ish. On the organ, it fits better with today's stormy weather. But I really like this. And the guy is funny. 😆 youtube.com/watch?v=_Cst...

People, don't put off taking your mail-in ballot to the post office, once you've filled it out. AND, take it inside and request that they manually stamp it with the postmarked date, right then in front of you.
