I guess it was more of a part-time job before the airplanes showed up

I really wasn’t expecting the swamp to turn into a second full-time job but I guess I need full-time therapy anyway

I’m so confused about how to find a quiet place to record with no airplanes. Everyone says look at a flight map but are they all for commercial airlines? It’s the small jets that have been a constant issue no matter where I go since like Marchish. I don’t know what’s going on. #fieldrecording

Churro just caught a moth in mid-air. What the heck is in flight in November?! It’s freezing out.

Now I have a garden white-throated sparrow. He seriously hangs out on that shrub every single day with me and the chickens. I wish I could warn him about Tiki being a bird cannibal. #birds

My face snuggled against my hen’s face.

me and my bird.

(if I look sick, it’s because I’m sick. and also cold.) #chickensky

ok…? #bloomscrolling #springishere

Trailing stems of narrow, opposite dark green leaves.

Intriguing that google reverse image search is the only one getting this ID even remotely correct. This is slender mountain mint, Pycnanthemum tenuifolium. #plantsky #nativeplants

Strawberries are a fall crop. #bloomscrolling #gardensky

everyone thinks the cold is the hardest part about living in new england, which yes, it should be, but no, it's 4:00 sunsets.

we also don't need 9:00 sunsets in the summer. there's no way to wind down.

no one knows why we live this way.

I have a bunch of random cats surrounding my house outside yowling, if anyone wants one.

The dopey face of my flower hen, Redd.

It claims it’s 50 degrees out. Right. I’ve been outside for 15 minutes for chicken recess and am a total ice cube. I doubt I will survive the winter. Oh well. #newengland

I wish I could delete the stupid phone app from my phone, I never use it. seriously, why are random bots allowed to call my camera whenever they feel like it.

the robins are randomly singing like it’s march. does this mean I’ll actually have some sticking around for the winter…? that would be highly desirable.

yay for the stars being out at 4 instead of 5, something no one asked for and no one likes

I’ve been trying to dig up a gardening with H video I made in like, July and never posted and I can’t find it but I keep finding random videos of pokeweed and I miss my yard birds so much. 😭

Oh, also worth noting that there's constantly random ripped up chunks of fur at the base of that tree. Mysterious!

Great horned owls are the only residents to my knowledge, but it's possible there's a barred owl too hanging around. I heard one the other night.

I've been trying to track down the owls in my yard and I don't know if this is one of them or if my imagination is just being a twit? Followed a trail of bird poop up a white pine. It's impossible to really see much of anything because of the branches. Is this an owl? #birds

Brown bug with a skull printed on its back with orange highlights.

I don't know what any of them are. I've probably just discovered a few new species.

What's this crazy planthopper thing with a devil back?

One photo has two bugs!

OH MY GOD, I HAVE A BUNCH!

Me opening all RAW images in a folder titled "ghost pipe" to try to find the one with a tiny bug crawling on it.

Computer: "Are you sure you want to open 476 files?"

HOW DARE YOU QUESTION MY LIFE DECISIONS

*computer immediately catches on fire*

Trying to climb out of my Gardening with H slump with the help of my wasps. I’ve been struggling to make videos lately because I’ve been too anxious to do the parts where I’m supposed to talk.

Thank you, wasps. That wasn’t so hard. #pollinators #gardeners #nests

The government has joined bluesky. 12 new accounts made just to post literally the same propaganda, and flex about how many people have blocked them. Classy. Does this site not have terms of service? Total spammers.

I dug up a rabbit's head. that's a new one. #gardeninglife

I can tell the difference between american and fish crows by sight and I’ve not been able to figure out how and I need to know so I can share my groundbreaking technique with the world and change everything

you’re all worried about the news. that’s right, I’m here at 3:30 am worried about crows 🪶
