Happy Equinox to all residents of Planet Earth.
On this day, the whole planet -- pole to pole -- gets equal daylight and nighttime. One of four days in our orbit that mark the change of seasons: Two equinoxes (March & Sept) & two Solstices (June & Dec).

This evening I watched a very determined cat attempt to stalk and catch doves on a sunlit soccer field. It didn't stand a chance and didn't get one. But it didn't give up until all of them had flown off.
@publicaddress In NZ its all about getting the tax write off and dodging FBT. Real tradies have a big van or at least a canopy on their ute. And definitely no snorkels ๐คฃ
@NZJamesS@nzpeacesafety@PronouncedHare Teens can't afford to smoke anymore. Opening the door to vaping as the alternative is a bizarre apology for good health policy on smoking.
