I guess it’s another #Caturday

Osprey at Prince Edward Point 🪶

I always have a little chuckle when I'm standing in a beautiful forest and someone comes up to me and says "Have you seen anything good today?"

Can't resist this one The #Edge 😆

Pushing my luck 7. Running my mouth 8. Kicking up a fuss 9. Catching forty winks 10. Throwing in the towel

How can the way a tree branches reveal its history — when the branches aren’t there anymore?? #tree #trees #forest #history #naturalhistory #ecology #science #stem

How I arrived on Bluesky

This is seaside almond (Terminalia catappa), called “ammon.” When ripe it turns red, then dries. We crack the hard stone inside to get the seed, which we use to make ammon cake, a sweet local confection. #The_Eco_Spiritual_Experience 🌱

Thank you friends for your lovely posts this #purplefriday. I truly believe these represent our support for dignity, inclusion, loyalty, peace, and love…hope we will have more of these in our societies 🪻💜💗

Is it a bird, is it a branch? It's #BranchBirds ! Tawny frogmouths feathers mimic broken chunks of bark. Another, less appealing camouflage tactic involves spraying poo at threats to confuse and disorientate predators. #BirdOfTheDay #nikon #birds #aussieBirds #birdPhotography #photography

The Jacky #Dragon was one of the very first #Australian reptiles to be formally named by Europeans in 1790. They have a sophisticated visual communication system based on movement: tail flicks, arm waves, push-ups, and body rocking. This little guy was giving me a wave. #naturephotography #reptile

My #DuckOutOfWater #BirdOfTheDay photo is this Wood Duck. This is one of my top favorite photos in my archives.

Getting in close to a little bluebell blur again :) #bluebells #macro #berkhamsted #Canonr5markii

Look at this gorgeous little chap. There's something so pleasing about European robins :) #RobinRedBreast #BirdPhotography #CanonR5markII

A little sunstar and shadows over the bluebells from Sunday morning :) #Bluebells #CanonR5markII #Sunrise

Going out with dog and camera. Please have a fabulous weekend. I’ll be back unless the local pub kidnaps me later. 🍻🥴 For Rina’s @rina2012.bsky.social #ButterFlyWeek #photography #ECK

This is a really odd argument because I think at the heart of it, there is a deep misunderstanding about what writing is for. I write to communicate my thoughts and ideas, and to bring people along with me, which AI cannot do for me because it isn't me.

My cat Juno (being a sook on the ground), has decided that he wants to be friends with the neighbours cat Bob I’ve never even seen them in the yard at the same time before 😂🐈‍⬛🐈‍⬛

The sun and the king

This came up as a memory on my phone. It’s Dad with a baby tawny, but even I didn’t notice the chick until I looked harder ❤️

This guy again. #birds

Ever seen a cat healed by spring itself? 🍃🐾 Just look at this one, melting into the fresh green. #MountFuji #MtFuji #Fujisan #Sakura #Japan

Sleeping ducks for #BirdOfTheDay #DucksOutOfWater Thanks Rob for creating the themes

I missed International Bat Appreciation Day yesterday - but it's still April 17 in some parts of the world. This is a grey-headed flying-fox seen after dipping into the River Torrens in Adelaide on an extremely hot day. They are a threatened species and play an important role in our ecosystem.

Galahs are cockatoos found all over Australia, except in areas of dense forest. They're not keen on bathing in standing water, usually conditioning their feathers with fine, white, talcum-like powder from specialized feathers, but they really enjoy taking a shower! #birds #birdwatching #WildOz

They all laugh at me today @pamlivengoodbrown.bsky.social 😆

When did public health stop asking who's pushing people in in the river? The upstream-downstream metaphor was always about corporate power. Somewhere along the way, "pushed" became "fell" - and that shift lets the 'manufacturers of illness' off the hook journals.plos.org/globalpublic...

Crows remember human faces. For years. If you wrong one, it will tell other crows about you — and they'll harass you too. Even crows that never met you! This is not just a bird. This is one of the most intelligent animals on the planet. #birds #crows #animas #nature
