GREAT EXPLORER QUOTES to brighten up your daily sandwich wrapper:🌏👍🏼 "I may be some time..." Antarctic explorer Lawrence 'Titus' Oates, on the ill-fated expedition of Capt. Robert Scott to the South Pole, 1912.

Brilliant breaking news: this year’s Goldman Prize—the Nobel of environmentalism—is won by activist Mari Luz Canaquiri Murayari for her work defending the rights & life of Peru’s Marañon River. “For us, the river isn’t just a body of water. It’s fundamental.” insideclimatenews.org/news/2104202...

The rules of Coyote and Road Runner cartoons, as laid down by Chuck Jones. He gave himself these boundaries, this framework - and then worked within them to produce some of the most brilliant comedy ever made.

#parkinsons any suffers of parkinsons disease having trouble doing buttons up I tried on 2 shirts this morning and I couldn't do the buttons up

this is as true as thing as can be said. the worth of a person and the right of that person to all the same things everybody else has access to is prior to, separate from, and unrelated to any measures of "productivity."

From Dawn until Dusk by the Pond. I was thinking that with the departure of the Fieldfares & the Redwings & the dispersal of birds to their breeding territories, then the pond might get quieter. But it's busy from daybreak until nightfall - especially with the Chiffchaffs. #ukwildlife #ornithology

Happy Bat Appreciation Day! The German word for a bat, Fledermaus, means “flutter mouse.” The Basque word, saguzar, means “old mouse.” And the Estonian word, nahkhiir, means “leather mouse.” But to me (and to anyone who’s seen the picture below) the correct term for bats will always be “sky puppies”

GREAT EXPLORER QUOTES to cheer up your sandwich wrapper🌏👍🏼: "Following the light of the sun, we left the Old World..." The navigator Christopher Columbus (1451-1506) as he set off to locate the Indies.

How delightful is this? 🥰
