Can I offer you green herons in this trying time? They're such delightfully absurd creatures. These two are back in their usual summer digs at Black's Nook, and I'm so glad I get to visit them. #birds 🪶

Two of my retired friends (they're also twin brothers) have started a music podcast. We all graduated high school in 1981 and are in our early 60s. For the most past, this podcast is not about new/current music. Give it a listen. youtu.be/F_Kz6LeqPCo?...

The Legacy Media in the US, the Mainstream Media, is owned/controlled by the 1%, and will no longer speak truth to power. This gives us some idea of how Russia and the PRC are successful at blacking out news and information.

The people of Los Angeles forced ICE to barricade themselves in a bldg until the LAPD came to rescue them. I dont want any protester hurt, but this is the way to do it. Be safe out there

WASP OR MOTH!? 🐝🤯 One of the most incredible mimics in the world, this Tiger Moth (Orcynia calcarata) looks so much like a wasp I was almost nervous holding it! 😳 There are so many tiger moths mimicking wasps in the Amazon it’s crazy! 😯🌳 How amazing is nature! 💛🖤

Photo taken by Michael Collins in 1969. Inside the lunar module are Armstrong and Aldrin. In the distance is Earth carrying the rest of all human beings. So all of mankind is in this picture except for Michael Collins.
