Absolute long shot, but if there is anyone in the Chicago community that has solid leads on any product manager positions, it would be greatly and personally appreciated.

The photos are progressions of an angry nuthatch with blue and black wings and head and a white breast a it moves toward an occupied birdfeeder Post image Post image Post image

This is what other birds might see when they annoy a White-breasted Nuthatch by daring to be at a feeder. The #WingsOpenNotFlying theme works for today's #BirdOfTheDay. 🪶

Black, white and grey dog sprawled out across a blanket on a couch looking cute af.

Hunter dog does this thing occasionally where he’ll wake one of us up in the middle of the night for water. We want to be annoyed, but then he does the cutest fucken thing ever. He slowly creeps up to you in the bed, flips over on his side and gives the gentlest kisses ever.

I freaking knew we’d get more frosts. These don’t appear to last very long so hopefully not much damage.

My instinct is always “ who the fuck you talking to”, but I guess that is unprofessional.

Is it invasive there? We’ve got our related Joro spider invasion. I swear they are 1/2 spiders I see now in just 4 years since they arrived.

Branch of mulberry tree in my hand with visible shaping wires.

My mulberry #bonsai is waking up. Unfortunately I’m pretty sure this is a male so no berries in my future. It’s still it beautiful tree with lovely leaves.

For sure. Some subtle things come through I might not have even noticed if I was just hearing them.

Oh Yes!™ Black Muscadine The world’s first black seedless muscadine packs the rich, juicy muscadine flavor we all love! Its fully edible skin is the perfect blend of tender and crunchy!

Oh shit, there is finally a seedless muscadine vine. We’ve already got a wild muscadine, but I couldn’t pass on a seedless one. Looks like Gurney’s has the patent so you probably can’t buy them elsewhere yet. www.gurneys.com/products/oh-...

My sweet oldest at 6 holding a worm with an uncomfortable smile preparing to fish with me. Lake is in the background.

Man I can’t believe oldest is graduating high school in 2 months. Kid is so bright, beautiful, and kind. I’m so proud of her.

Same, but we are right on the border of 7/8. I’m unsure if they can produce bc they fruit very late in the season. Same reason I don’t grow citrus hardy to our zone. I’m still trying.

You guys! I’m so proud of myself. About 5ish years ago I talked these hard core conservatives into planting a bunch of natives in their yard based on looks alone. This morning they’re sending me all these beautiful pics of them in bloom.

Gotta learn how to prune the pomegranate now. This is 2nd season. I wasn’t too worried bc they are a bush and not a tree. FYI, there are multiple varieties hardy to zone 7 now, but I think you need to be close to zone 8 to get fruit.🌱
