Spooky bird stories. My Halloween comic from 2024.

A comic titled Spooky Bird Stories. In panel 1, a turkey vulture is telling stories to other vultures, and it says, "She walked toward the source of the terrible smell. She got closer and closer, and then, to her horror, she saw... No dead body." A black vulture says "No!" and a turkey vulture says "Did someone already eat it??" In panel 2, a northern cardinal is telling a story to some songbirds. It says "They peered through the windows of the house at the gory scene. Zombies had smashed through the door in the night. The homeowner was dead. But worst of all... He hadn't refilled the feeders." An eastern bluebird says "Aaah!" and an American goldfinch says "It can't be!". In panel 3, A screech owl is telling a story to other owls. It says "And then the ghost fluffed itself up really big to appear scarier." A saw-whet owl gasps, and a long-eared owl says "Horrifying!". In panel 4, a downy woodpecker is telling a story to other woodpeckers, and says "The eerie sound rang through the dark woods. Tap-tap. Tap-tap. It was the distinctive two-part knock of the Ivory-billed Woodpecker. The species had returned from the dead... FOR REVENGE." A red-cockaded woodpecker says "Yesss".

just because it made me happy and I thought it was extra pretty in the fog: my (back) yard’s past and present state; pics taken about 8 years apart

A blank green patch of sod surrounded by a wood privacy fence.

An oasis that somebody actually cares about - pic taken from roughly the same angle, but now it’s all trees, flowers, and a paver pathway leading to a round patio. The fog-shrouded trees in the background make it look so nice, tho.

Elizabethan playhouses were supplied by a network of tailors, merchants & craftswomen. Their names survive in records, but little is known about their lives. I’m working on new research that brings the stories of these makers & traders centre stage. Here is the project in biscuit (cookie) form. 🍪

A photograph of eight rectangular biscuits (cookies) arranged in two rows on a square white plate. The plate is framed on all sides by a trailing vine pattern in green with pops of red. The biscuits are mostly in shades of ivory, cream, yellow, and grey, with a burst of vivid red and blue in one corner of the arrangement. Moving across the top row of biscuits from left to right, the designs include: neat lines of handwritten names in an early modern parish register; a section of a hand-drawn map from 1561 featuring St Paul’s Cathedral, with street names like ‘Carter Lane’ visible in a tiny spiky font; an extract of text from a funerary monument printed in an early modern book, ending ‘So transitory is our glory’; a section of embroidery from a funeral pall featuring metallic silver armour, crossed gold keys, and two hands holding up a crown. The biscuit designs on the bottom row include: horses prancing past shopfronts on Cheapside in the mid-sixteenth century; a receipt written in early modern secretary hand, which is difficult to read; a portrait of a stern-looking women dressed in a ruff, pearls, and sober dark clothing; swirling calligraphy and dense secretary hand featuring on a will dating from 1638.

My freezer right now. Pretty! But not something you want to see. Fortunately, I rent. Work order in.

A refrigerator top door freezer. There's an ice maker, a loaf of frozen bread, a bag of some kind of vegetable, and in the foreground a slowly growing mound of frost and ice that hangs about 1/4th the way down the freezer opening.

Looking up the hill at Killakee. Patches of blue sky, forest in the distance.

A frail looking red button mushroom. Leaf litter and pine needles all around.

A bright, little yellow/brown mushroom growing in detritus of the forest floor. Maybe a Mottlegill.

A nice example of a Puffball in prime condition.

A cast iron drain pipe going down the side of a white-painted house. A crest of red feathers and a bright orange beak made from something solid have been attached around it. It looks remarkably like "Feathers McGraw", the evil criminal penguin from The Wrong Trousers.

I love this snippet in the instructions for a writing assignment from my kid's teacher. "In a world that increasingly diminishes the value of human experience, writing is rebellion."

You and your personal thoughts matter more to me than anything a predictive text-generator can produce. In a world that increasingly diminishes the value of human experience, writing is rebellion.

Got a little mass on my chest biopsied (not my boobs, those are not little). Dermatologist thinks it's a basal cell carcinoma, which are almost always benign. The worst part about it is if she's right, the surgery to remove the thing will damage my chest tattoo!
