I think you might be right! Here’s a bonus photo of the vireo biting the waxwing’s rump, just to be a jerk I guess 😅

You'd think the Cedar Waxwing would have an edge in a dispute with a Red-eyed Vireo, but it turns out that vireos are both scrappy and sneaky. #birds 🌿

It's actually a Blue Crane chick named Calypso that recently hatched at the International Crane Foundation. Blue Cranes are native to Southern Africa, with the majority of the population in South Africa. #birds 🌿

Here's another view. It's a gift when critters aren't bothered by me being so attentive. It sure helps me get an ID on them if I can get at least a couple angles before they carry on. Have a good evening, friend. 💜

Shipping pottery long distance via ocean was really common, so there are A LOT of shipwrecks with, like, the equivalent of corellware. The museum had an exhibit of some of the ~50k bowls they salvaged from that ship and it's FASCINATING how modern they look

It's not every day that senators ask the attorney general to appoint a special counsel to criminally investigate a sitting Supreme Court justice.

What's more, the case against Clarence Thomas is quite credible. www.msnbc.com/rachel-maddo...

Every winter, Hudson Bay creates brand new sea ice. As evidenced by these floes that were left beached by the receding tide, the ice gets extremely thick. It was so cool to see these. It’s quite late in the year for them. 🌿

Everyone knows Coca-Cola used to contain cocaine, but people don't talk as much about how 7 Up used to contain lithium as a mood stabiliser.

Seattle residents! Contact your City Council people before Tuesday to express support for this legislation. It waives codes that currently make it impossible to convert office spaces to residential ones. This will help with the housing crisis!

Look at this link at the bottom of the New York Times' "Don't vote" opinion piece. They didn't run this as a one-off. They're trying to turn non-voting into a thing. Repugnant.

Imagine for one second if the NYT marshaled its massive influence towards voter registration, towards supporting voting rights groups, towards encouraging people to vote and fighting people who try to stop people from voting. Imagine if the NYT actually championed participatory democracy.

Honestly still in shock that the most crooked American President in history said "I need immunity" and the GOP Supreme Court said "well, it's nowhere in the constitution, but sure, why not? Whats the worst that could happen?"
