Woke later than usual; light seeping into the sky and birds singing snd I realised: it’s here, it’s finally here at last! A happy, healthy, hope-filled #WinterSolstice to you and yours!

In the first few days I just saw with her and watched her sleep for 23.5 hours a day. Look at her today. My heart could explode with happiness for her ❤️

Good morning butterflies🦋💙 Happy Monday😮‍💨 Stay positive, you guys got this! I know we can all get through today together😄 Plans for the day anyone?🤨 Coffe today?☕️🤎

#MondayMotivation @goldengal31.bsky.social Hope this lifts your spirits and warms your heart. It made me smile.🐾🪵🐾

Jane Goodall speaking about climate change at the Tropicana stadium in St Petersburg, Florida last September 24th. On October 9th, the roof you see would be torn off by Hurricane Milton. RIP to a magnificent woman. 😔

Had a staring contest with a Cape May Warbler

Trees communicate with each other. Everything is connected. Everything.

Miracles do happen!

Family tree (wow) in Kenya's Masai Mara.

Nothing is like ocean 🌊 sunset 🌅💕

If you see a horseshoe on their back with their tail up, they’re stranded and you should flip them over so they can go home.

This is what the Elriad Shrine Circus doesn't want you to see: Elephants performing under distress. Animals forced to perform demeaning tricks. No animal should suffer for entertainment! Please #DontBuyATicket 🎟️! 🎦 Credit: PETA.

A surprise Cape May Warbler

This #ArborDay, a reminder that trees aren't just important for the environment. Tree loss can create the conditions for humans and virus-infected animals to collide — meaning the next deadly pandemic is just a forest clearing away.

sometimes i think the birds try not to look at us so their eyes won't taste our shame

A Mother's Grief in the Ocean 💔 When a Pilot Whale loses her baby, she carries it in her mouth for weeks—a heartbreaking ritual called 'requiem'. Human impact—pollution, unchecked tourism, and ocean plastic—is pushing marine life to the brink. We need to act now! 🎦 Credit: BBC Blue Planet.

What a difference 6 hours makes for a dog. Everything has now changed in life for little Bianca 🥰

Dogs only live in the moment which is what Big Mac is doing. He says life is too good here now and that he is going to live forever. Have a lovely Sunday ❤️ (7/7)

That wonderful moment of peace and tranquillity on the water when an inquisitive Otter comes over to investigate. 🎦 Credit: Nature Is Beautiful. #WildlifePhotography #NaturePhotography #Wildlife #Nature #Otter 🦦

Dogs never cease to amaze me. Just 72 hours since her operation Pepper is out and about looking absolutely stunning. Even I am blown away by her turnaround (1/5) 🧵

In the end it all happened very quick. Alba told me it was time. I tried to make her last day as perfect as possible for her as her little body had given up. She had a wonderful send off and only knew love

Myself and Alba are often tired in the evening (me from helping dogs, her from her illness). I often think about skipping the little 50 yard hike up to the rock. But I've never regretted us going up there once. 💜

I get a lot of messages about sick dogs and I can barely get to 20% of them. Sometimes though you get a message where you have to drop everything. I woke up this morning to one. I don’t know how she is still alive but she has a chance now (1/8) 🧵

Let’s start off 2025 with a lovely video as @MrRickyGervais.bsky.social explains why he thinks dogs are the best thing in the world 🐶 ❤️. The #DogsOfBlueSky LOVE you Ricky! 🎦 Credit: JOE.

I wanted to pick a proper sunset in honor of Former President Jimmy Carter. I think this one, with the bright rays gleaming as it sets, is perfect. Thank you, Mr. President

I would love to see a bunch of musical artists and celebrities put on a nationally televised tribute concert for Pres. Jimmy Carter on inauguration day with all proceeds going to Habitat for Humanity.

#TuesdayTraditions What's your Christmas tradition? @goldengal31.bsky.social @philliesfan1000.bsky.social @claire1224.bsky.social @karendipitee.bsky.social #ChristmasEve is filled with both religious and non-religious traditions. Our 50year annual tamale making party ended about 5 years ago😢🫶✌️

Time here in S, TX means nothing to Monarchs who are still laying eggs. Most of our milkweed is gone. I found a caterpillar on a plant that was stripped of all leaves. I walked to the Pollinator Garden and brought back several branches. Should be enough for a couple of days till I find more.

If you need a pick me up every day follow Niall. He does tremendous work with dogs and is a light in a dark world.

The grass is not always greener on the other side 🥰🙏
