My ICQ UIN is 7231680. That number is burned into my consciousness. I inadvertently learned that you could see private conversations in public chat rooms when using Telnet instead of a browser on GeoCities. I can tell you the difference in audible dial-up handshakes between 1200, 2400, 14.4 kbps modems. I needed a edu email address to join Facebook after my university was admitted. We were here at the beginning. We made social media. You wouldn't be in my Top 8. I have usernames older than you.

A very bright yellow orange adult male hooded oriole is perched at a feeder. His face and neck and wings are black. His wings have a couple white stripes. The foreground is blurry bright light gray native plants.

Close-up profile of pelican with bright blue eye. It’s breeding horn is evident on its bill. The background is frothy water.

Putting in my bet on this year’s American White Pelican arrival in Saskatoon (it’s an annual event - there are prizes!) has me thinking about how much I’m looking forward to seeing those gigantic prehistoric weirdos again. Can’t wait #birds

Close-up woodland floor scene among moss (a bryophyte). A pale lace-like skeletonised leaf lies across a dark decaying leaf, the fine network of veins still intact while the softer leaf tissue has disappeared. Bright green feathery moss surrounds it, with a small woodland seedling and a catkin nearby.

Sterjall sitting on a bristlecone pine branch against a backdrop of hazy mountains. His amber eyes look to the left, while his body faces right. His dark fur contrasts against the haze, his tail wraps subtly around a branch. He is holding Leif, his obsidian-bladed dagger, with the point down. He’s wearing a blue tunic, a braided leather belt, leather pants, and a copper bracelet. The bristlecone pine has nearly no leaves, but still manages to look lively.

A black and white night photo of a soggy raccoon as it rained most of last night. The raccoon is in my garden, surrounded by plants and shrubs. There are small landscaping rocks on the ground. The raccoon's fur is wet and clumped into spike looking pieces of fur. It's very unlikely any of this rain penetrated the raccoons thick fur and the raccoon remained nice and warm.

It's time to deploy the weather raccoon.

If your raccoon is soaking wet, it is, or has been, raining - likely heavily. 🌧️

In a surprising weather event, it rained most of last night, it's been ages since we had a good steady rain for hours.

Similar to other spiny lizards, male southern sagebrush lizards, Sceloporus vandenburgianus, are very territorial. They do push-ups and show off their blue bellies. They defend their territories even outside of mating season.

While keepers were busy cleaning one of the larger pools, baby otter Bao enjoyed his own little splash zone, complete with a tub full of toys to investigate, toss, and pounce on.

Oregon lawmakers approve hotel tax increase to fund wildlife programs Oregon lawmakers approved a hotel tax increase to pay for wildlife conservation programs. In addition to funding wildlife crossings, habitat projects and poaching enforcement, it would help compensate ranchers for livestock losses due to wolves.

A European stonechat perched on a bramble stem, surrounded by fresh green leaves with reddish edges. The small bird has a warm orange chest, mottled brown back, and a pale wing patch. Its beak is stuffed with a messy bundle of dry grass, moss, and fine rootsβ€”nest material so large it partly hides its faceβ€”suggesting it is busy building or lining a nest. The background is softly blurred green, making the bird and the tangle of nesting material stand out clearly.

Macro photograph, in top view, of two insects standing on a cluster of small, 4-petalled white flowers. Both insects have a red head and thorax and black at their back ends. The beetle on the right is slightly broader, and has a narrow white line separating the red and black parts of its body, as to suggest a narrow ant waist.
