A hand holds a bright orange bitter melon. The plant’s green leaves frame the vivid fruit, a reminder of nature’s own medicine growing close to the earth.

The picture shows a close-up of a pink hollyhock flower in bloom. The flower has soft, delicate petals with a slightly ruffled edge, surrounding a central yellow-green stamen. The background includes green leaves and a blurred natural setting, with another pink flower partially visible on the left side. The overall scene suggests a garden environment.

Chloe. I have been a busy been today doing necessary things. Now, I'm watching an awful movie I like 😄

Not much. Been looking out the window at birds with Riley. Hope you're having a great day! -Chloe

You did good. 🍰🍵🍨🤗

there was so much going on
up there
in the early evening sky
that we stood transfixed
until
darkness drew down
shrouding colour's hope

but we'd forgot how little
destruction our estuary's
loneliness allowed as Anais
and I stood in the chill
watching stars appear
prink out one by one

I like the almost transparency, the ghostly presence. Im glad you took the time and effort to capture this beautiful photo 📸

Thanks, Regina. I rarely get morning photos of the moon. It's not that easy to see once the sun comes up and I never really really knew where it was going to be. Last night I discovered looking at one of the moon websites that it tells you where it will be on the compass which helped me find it.

Chloe, what's up?

I understand you are leaving it up to Nature. Maybe Nature is the only force that can battle a "well established" species. I hope your fruit trees don't suffer. 🌳

Indeed, without trees there will be no humans or pets! Let's hope more predators are established against them. Nature will balance itself over time 🤍

The image shows NGC 7635, the Bubble Nebula. It is a 10-light-year gas sphere, pushed by the stellar wind of star BD+602522. To the lower right, a giant molecular cloud glows, heated by the star’s radiation. Shown in scientifically mapped colors to enhance contrast, it’s part of a larger star and shell complex, visible with a small telescope toward Cassiopeia.

Who could say no to this face when he wants treats?

Located only 8,000 light years away, the Wizard nebula, featured here, surrounds developing open star cluster NGC 7380. Visually, the interplay of stars, gas, and dust has created a shape that appears to some like a fictional medieval sorcerer. The active star-forming region spans 100 about light years, making it appear larger than the angular extent of the Moon. The Wizard Nebula can be located with a small telescope toward the constellation of the King of Aethiopia (Cepheus). Although the nebula may last only a few million years, some of the stars being formed may outlive our Sun.
