One of the Great Blue Heron nests has four nestlings. These are very busy Great Blue Heron parents to be raising so many young ones, most nests have two or three.

Saying of your literal son “He’s a person I’ve known for a long time” is legendary I’m afraid

Obviously its important to get a pap smear, but the amount of people who shut down any stories of women experiencing pain during smear tests and accuse them of exagerrating is a blatant example of medical misogyny.

Wow it’s almost like there was a deeply engaged protest movement by college students 2yrs ago that was the largest in 50yrs and the publication you work for—along with every other major outlet—smeared them as antisemites, then they were all systematically kicked out of school.

A Sandhill Crane with feathers freshly painted with iron-rich mud, which will give the feathers a rusty tint. It's believed this is done to help the crane blend into the environment while sitting on a nest.

the question of whether genocidal Zionists have been successful in assassinating Khamenei is secondary. The crucial point is both Netanyahu and Trump are openly saying they wanted to kill him. That is a declaration of total war, and by their standard makes them legitimate targets

love these posts when politicians get online and say "the president has a real opportunity to be someone completely different tonight and I hope he takes it despite ten years of evidence to the contrary"

This Northern Flicker was following a pair of Pileated Woodpeckers around. When one of the Pileated Woodpeckers would leave the hole of an excavation site, the Flicker would check out the tree cavity and see if there were any ants left to lap up.

We had an unusual occurrence whilst surveying a farm last night, when we caught a Woodcock and a Snipe within minutes of each other. I have never seen the two species side by side, it's amazing how much bigger the Woodcock is than the Snipe.

An unofficial memorial outside the VA ICU today. An unofficial Walk of Honor ended in the chapel as "the event that wasn't" as staff were told they were not allowed to have an event or even acknowledge their loss by national leadership.
