We approve! Thank you

[Nicole Wood @WildlifeBioGal]

Ps…the birds they were excited about, black vultures. I think @VulturesofDC would approve of their excitement.

We spotted this great T-shirt on the street in DC. It is @Hawk_Mountain T. Awesome!

It's #SaveTheEaglesDay! Did you know that Bald #Eagles were nearly extinct only a few decades ago?

Create in me a clean heart, O God. And renew a right spirit within me. Because the joy I felt about today’s news felt good for a minute but only in the way that peeing my pants feels warm for a minute. And now it’s cold and smells bad and I’m embarrassed. #TrumpHasCovid

[Kenn Kaufman @KennKaufman]

Significant and worth sharing. Mr Trump has encouraged his followers to illegally go to polling places to intimidate voters. Georgetown Law has produced fact sheets for each state, detailing applicable laws and how to deal with such threats.

[Vulture Conservation Foundation @4Vultures]

The gorgeous #BeardedVulture you can see in the photos is Neige who is currently in his 5th CY and almost wears his adult plumage. He hatched in Haute-Savoie in the French #Alps in 2016 and was equipped with a GPS tag by ASTERS.

In case you didn’t hear this when Kenn yelled it at his TV.

[Kenn Kaufman @KennKaufman]

Trump, you piece of shit, SHUT THE FUCK UP!!

[Alex Holt @AlexJHolt]

It's been a little while since my last @BirdNames4Birds profile, but new one just up for Georg Wilhelm Steller. Probably one of the few people who is most famous for a mammal eponym... his discovery of which unintentionally lead to it's rapid extinction.
