The backyard was a magical place I could run to when I was a child. Side yards were transitional strips. The front yard was the presentation of the house from the street (and it also had a hill that was fun to roll down when I was very small.)

Yeah, backseat drivers shout from the back seat of the car if they're not in the passenger seat up front.

It's not a real war if it's not declared by Congress.

For #smallbirdsaturday I offer this lovely #rubythroatedhummingbird, part of a little flock that was nectaring on Spotted Touch-me-not near Keene in upstate New York. (5 August 2025). wildadirondacks.org/adirondack-b...

I'm always impressed with the camouflage of ruddy turnstones. If not for the glimpse of orange legs when they move you can hardly see them at all. #birds

Common Quaker (Orthosia cerasi).

A recent Common Quaker for #MothFaceFriday. This moth played dead so convincingly that I thought it was dead.

The food was actually "inedible", making "portions so small!" a paradox.

The Horsehead and Flame Nebula.
55 years ago I saw an image of the Horsehead in a book on Astronomy, that image sparked a lifetime love of the subject.
This is 1 hour of data from last night in SHO.

"Trump Hails an Economic Turnaround Many Voters Don't See"

I liked this @wsj headline.

I thought it was a fine balance of truth vs diplomacy.

Later they removed the word "Voters".

Edmonia Lewis. Born of African and Ojibwe descent, she was a free indigenous woman who lived through emancipation, studied sculpture even while brutalized by classmates, travelled to Rome to study classically, and then used it to represent our beauty and depth through Renaissance marble sculpture.

A soldier wounded in battle will no longer have a chance to be treated by an army doctor who went to any of the top tier medical schools.

Cape May's "ghost tracks" are century-old, rusted railroad remnants buried in the sand at Higbee Beach and Sunset Beach in New Jersey, used for sand mining and World War I munitions, only appearing after major storms reveal them before being reburied again by sand.

I knew I saw this somewhere before. Funny that it’s almost exactly what’s actually happening now.

A large, plump, brown toad covered in lots of spiny bumps! Even though they are rather large, they are very compact looking compared to many other toads! They have very large parotoid glands and visible eardrums!

Our friend Sclerophrys Regularis is a widespread toad with many common names, but our favorite is the African Bouncing Toad! When threatened, they often bounce around to scare or confuse predators! (photo by abotto)

This was, and unfortunately continues one of the greatest crimes against humanity.

This should not have been allowed by Congress either and they have culpability.
