Well, my dog picked up a baby bird today. 😒 it was still alive last time I saw it. I hope it was just a bit shocked and hopped into to the weeds to recover not to die.😞 It may be getting a bit too National Geographic out there. She is sorry.🐶🌱

I think this is some kind of rudbeckia; it's growing from a pot that got a packet of wildflower seeds years ago and the plants took forever to grow and flower. 🌱

Did you know that when Pam Bondi said "We presented El Salvador with an arrest warrant and they agreed to return him," she was admitting she failed to follow the extradition process, proving he could have been returned at any time? My latest: www.muellershewrote.com/p/abrego-gar...

Newsom: I told the president, just get it over with. Arrest me. Move on. If you need someone’s head to scalp, then do it with me. But stop messing with these kids. Stop messing with four-year-olds. Kids in elementary school

🪶 A yellow warbler sings to greet the week. I wanted a cheery shot today. For those keeping up, my father-in-law died Friday morning. This week should be a bit calmer, but we'll be back into it this weekend, and the next few weeks could be busy. Thanks for your good wishes. #birds #photography

A Green Heron doing some fishing in a duckweed covering pond. It looks like it could be tough going but Green Herons have excellent eyesight; this one caught a tadpole a few minutes earlier.

last call on the bird front and brain break from the bs... This pair of house finches made it clear that they saw me. The "you took our photo, can you go away now" look. #littlethings #daybyday #finches

Rhino poachers eaten alive by pride of lions in South African game reserve. Staff at a South African reserve found the bloodied head & limbs of at least two poachers who broke in to hunt rhinos. I wish every poacher and trophy hunter on earth was eaten alive. They are evil the world can do without ~

Marine veterans are speaking out against the troop deployment in Los Angeles. Across the country, they’re taking down their American flags that have flown in front of their homes for years. Remember, we have friends everywhere.

As you watch ICE terrorize Los Angeles, remember: private prison companies are going to get very, very rich off Trump's cruelty.

"In our federal system, the National Gov. possesses only limited powers; the States and the people retain the remainder. The States have broad authority to enact legislation for the public good—what we have often called a 'police power.' The Fed. Gov., by contrast, has no such authority."-SCOTUS '14
