Four birds line up in a row, all facing left at nearly identical angles, on the crest of a small, light-colored sand dune. Wisps of dead beach grass emerge from under the sand along the top of the dune. The least sandpipers have bright white bellies, mottled brown and white chests, and mostly light and dark brown heads and backs.

Four least sandpipers do their best to all look the same on top of this small, grassy dune

There is ZERO excuse for joining the USA military.

Being in poverty doesn’t give you the right to go participate in the mass murder of brown folks.

And this includes non-combat military members too. Their entire job revolves around supporting the combat that is happening.

Good morning #bluesky

Iran May Name New Supreme Leader In ‘A Day Or Two’—Here’s Who’s Leading The Country Now A three-person Leadership Council stepped in after Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei was killed.

Tell Congress: Demand AG Bondi release ALL of the Epstein files now Contact Congress today!

FACTS. The regime repeatedly broke the law in order to conduct the biggest coverup in American history.

Tell Congress right now: DO YOUR JOBS and demand the DOJ release ALL of the Epstein files.

Exactly. Blindly hooting for the Buffoon-in-Chief as he unlawfully orders airstrikes without a coherent plan isn't a foreign policy, and isn't patriotic; it's just stupid, and dangerous.

Great White Egret with a fish.

I felt lucky to get such good views of this great white egret at Chard Reservoir this afternoon. It flew towards me and then spent some time fishing close by. Lucky for me - not so much for the fish. #Birds #WildlifePhotography #UKWildlife #SomersetBirds #Egret

I've never seen daffodils with #bees in them oddly. So I'm gonna reprise a yellow #stunflower from last summer. This is a male ultra green sweat bee. Happy #Stunday beeps. Spring is here and summer is almost near. #flowers #spring #gardening

A magical moment on the trail yesterday: an unexpectedly close encounter with a great blue heron creekside. Usually we just see them as they fly away like at the end of this video but this one gave a few moment to take in its beauty first.

Aurora Borealis

The Aurora Borealis is probably my favorite Borealis.

Yellow daffodils leaning

Two large yellow daffodils face on.

Good St David's Day beeps. (Bee-loving peeps.) I was grateful to catch some fresh daffodils in bloom yesterday in my garden. May they bring you a spot of joy today. #flowers #SundayYellow #gardening

US military says three of its troops killed in first Iran operation casualties Three U.S. service members have been killed and another five have been seriously wounded, in the first casualties of the unfolding U.S. operations against Iran, the U.S. military said on Sunday.

Reports indicate at least 100 children have already been killed in strikes on schools. That is unconscionable.

Three U.S. service members are dead as a result of this entirely preventable war of choice.

The blood of these service members, these children, and every civilian rests in Trump’s hands.

The City Of Chicago Just Held A Snow Plow Naming Contest—And, Yeah, Trump Won't Like The Winning Name One Bit

Chicago understood the assignment 👏🏼

I got to start my garden today. Or rather, start it in earnest. Turns out it's a "quack plot" - full of quack grass. (Just say no to quack.) But I don't mind. I enjoy garden restoration. And my lupin survived the transplanting. Yay. #gardening

Oh. And the VA might not take care of their injuries, invisible or otherwise.

Just remember what this is all for…. Distracting from the Epstein files

Still true

Republicans used to hide the fact that they were bigots. Now they don't even hide it.

Top down shot of a very colorful round zinnia blossom in a garden with a circle of yellow around a dark red center. Which is surrounded by a circle of magenta fading to red then yellow at the outer edges of the petals almost like a rainbow. Jan Groh Photograbee 2025.

Colorful zinnias are very #round in the garden. Here's one from last summer.

Straight on shot looking into a still unfurling large sunflower whose petals are very dark and shiny around a darker center, so it almost resembles a round alien eye. Surrounded by bright green outer petals and leaves. Jan Groh Photograbee 2025.

I love the way the dark #round center of this still blooming sunflower looks almost like an alien eye. #Flowers #PNW #BlueSkyArtShow #photograbee

Alright y'all. I know the world is going to hell in a hand basket. But your world doesn't have to. Join me in a wee bit of forest bathing this #SylvanSaturday.
Seriously. Time in #nature, even vicariously really grounds us humans. #Trees #Oregon #PNW
