ppl getting angry at this but he's talking alliances and he's 100% right- you cannot trust a country where every 4 yrs the foreign policy does a complete 180 & tears up treaties and reneges on deals and withholds payments because some sheep farmers in Wisconsin think too many black women have jobs

The N.S. Savannah, the first nuclear-powered non-war ship, was open today for tours. I took along my old radioactive Yashica lens for the occasion. And just for @postoctobrist.bsky.social I gave her a pat and told her she was a good ship.

I have little use, in general, for congressweasels, but Jamie Raskin is an exception. And as it happens, I live in his district. He’s my own congressweasel

Needed some color and freshness. Experimenting with lighting on flowers. Using an old M42 Yashica Yashinon-DS 50mm f/1.7 adapted on my Canon R5. Lens is from the…’60s? ‘70s? As old as I am, probably, and made with Thorium glass, so radi☢️active!

"What?" "I SAID YOU NEED TO HAVE YOUR EARS CHECKED!" Lousy photo, but great goose action If anyone knows the species of duck seen at the left and right edges of the frame, let me know. The one with the beige/buff crown.

From December... Trumpeter Swans There were--and I counted several times to be certain--seven swans a-swimming on the pond that day. The two with the gray head and neck feathers are juveniles

Some kind of wren, I think, based on bill shape. I need a longer lens.

Of course, the one bird who was cooperative was this Black Vulture. Maybe not the handsomest of birds, but people love Storks and Spoonbills--ever looked at their faces? This vulture is loveable in comparison

Rainy day in rural Maryland Not many critters out in the wildlife management area, but this mossy tree was looking good Moss? Lichens? shrug.

Rainy day in rural Maryland Belted Kingfisher doing a decent job of staying out of sight. Quite far away (sever crop) and concealed by trees, my lens found focus everywhere except on the bird

SO the ethnic cleansing is underway in the U.S. and about to ramp up in Palestine. If a World War breaks out in the next few years, the U.S. and Israel will be the Axis Powers. We will not be the Good Guys.
