@sykesjeff You have to be very patient with these guys. They're all about motion and are very hard to capture. They'll zip by you and the sit up in the tree and laugh at you. Nice shot btw.

@dkpattanayak Keep up the nice work.

I think this is a type of tree sparrow but I'm not sure. I took the image @ Tommy Thompson

I might disagree with Bernie on a lot of things but I think this idea needs serious consideration.

Human trafficking wears many faces. The public recognizes trafficking for the purposes of sex. Does it also recognize trafficking regarding indentured servitude or migrant workers?

True evil: Japan is bribing sm influencers to tell people that killing whales is good for the marine ecosystem.

If you're on Facebook, please tell those mentioned in this article what a wicked lie this is.

We need every whale alive.

Russia is desperate and China knows it. Siberia is an area of vast resources. However, running a pipeline in Siberia is a constant headache - leakage & sabotage. Just ask Gazprom and Nord Stream.

@Treehugger I like cephalopods in their natural habitat thanks. Big no to aquariums.

The campaign to undermine the Trophy Hunting Bill is well organised & planned out and no doubt is costing significant money, the question is where is it coming from ? Let’s see some transparency from those making the case for killing for conservation

[Organic Consumers Association @OrganicConsumer]

“Corporate money has always corrupted the political process in order to create laws and trade agreements that protect corporate profits at the expense of not just U.S. citizens, but citizens of the world.

We can find, perhaps, no better case in point than genetically modified organisms (GMOs).

Developed over the decades by seed and chemical companies Monsanto, Calgene, Dow, DuPont, Bayer and others, genetically modified (GM) corn, soy, cotton and canola were touted as the solution to world hunger, the key to increased farm profitability, lower pesticide use and a better environment.

It all sounded good, but none of it was true.

The real truth was — and this was never mentioned — that these commodity crops were designed to produce vast corporate profit as they helped usher in a wave of corporate consolidation, loss of small farms, declining rural economies and a foisting of untested GM food on unknowing consumers.

While these GM crops dominate the fields of North America, the seed and chemical companies saw the world as their target for even more profit.”

“May this Ramadan be full of celebrations for you and your loved ones. May you enjoy these beautiful days with your special ones. Ramadan Mubarak and Eid Mubarak to you.” Hope I've said that correctly?

Everyone wants to shoot the Frontenac from the Plains of Abraham. I found a lot of interesting shots in 2017 while I was in Quebec City.
