Just gave a big friendly wave to our mail carrier, only to realize it was actually just a random pedestrian in a weird sun hat.

I often meet friends on my carbon-neutral commute. 🌲 🐻 🚶‍♂️

Very excited and honored to have been part of this project and to now be a Science published author! 🥳 We used animal and human mobility data to explore the impacts of human presence and landscape modifications on wildlife across the continental US. www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...

um what?

And now for something different! I found this magnificent American #Beaver (Castor canadensis ) den while lost in Emanuel county Georgia. #mammals #photography

“lifted off” food stamps, “launched” into starvation

We are so lucky to get two brilliantly colorful hummingbirds all over San Francisco (Anna’s and Allen’s Hummingbird) #birds #hummingbirds

I don’t think it will happen but if they want to send crypto billionaires into deep space…

It’s #FridayFlowers so here’s a blooming Purple sage from the yard. #NativePlants #BloomScrolling

#MSH45 | May 22, 1980 President Carter visited evacuees at a Longview Red Cross shelter after flying over the blast zone, listening to stories of survival and loss. “If you know any prayers, say a few of ’em,” someone told him. Carter nodded: “I started Sunday morning when I first heard about it.”

Happy Flyday! Juvie Gray Hawk takes flight… 🪶 ✈️

Cowlbert had just lost his Telowlvision Show, for purely financial reasons. The Big Loud Orange Bird (BLOB) had nothinger than nothing to do with it! Cowlbert was still in wistful Hello-Goodbye mode, and felt he had to spread his wings to try and go elsewhere. But he knew he would be back...

From 2018, photog Peter Yang This just crossed my IG feed. Brilliant shot from the 2018 interview. I promptly hopped over to the photographer’s IG and and dropped a message saying I loved the shot. When something you enjoy crosses your path, take a minute and let the creator know. 1/

A looooooooong procession of geese 🥲🥹😃 wildlife moments of zen.

Ok, I’m going to get out of time sequence a little but this is just too cute!! DED 1- This is definitely a junior with beak open wide. Poppa is just a foot away with a snack. 2- snack delivered This junior has blue knee highs with darker rings and a broken tail feather.

Fair warning, this may be an extended Ravi thread 🧵 😊 I walked up to the fence after I thought I saw Ravi hop down from the wood fence. Wondering if he was walking along the backside of the fence. All of a sudden, about 3 feet away - Hi Ravi!! Hopped into the yard towards the snack table. 🪶

A group of young men burned down an Ebola treatment center in Congo today. They were angry because their friend had died of the disease and the medical center wouldn’t release the body, which would have been dangerous. If you are thinking this wouldn’t happen here, you are mistaken.

Some notes now that I’ve seen the transcript of the hearing, thanks to @lizdye.bsky.social . First: the government dismissed the felony count in an effort to convince the judge not to make them produce full transcripts, knowing they showed serious misconduct.

Thirsty Coop🪶 on a hot day

UC Berkeley Law creates new AI policy that bans AI for "conceptualizing, outlining, drafting, revising, translating, or editing any work submitted for credit" or exams because "thinking remains the sine qua non of good lawyering (and of a quality legal education)." That's what I'm talking about.

‼️🚨 BREAKING: Kash Patel's apparel website is reportedly hosting ClickFix malware, according to multiple visitors. A fake Cloudflare verification page is tricking users into pasting "verification" commands that execute an infostealer targeting Keychain, browser data, tokens, and crypto wallets.

This is extremely lawless and corrupt by the Trump DOJ. So, par for the course. The presumption of regularity is a joke now, and federal prosecutors won’t recover the esteem they had from federal judges for a generation. (Which, actually, is fine.)

Would you like to hear a story? Let me tell you a story. I was just now walking home from the doctor and I saw a carpenter bee on the middle of the sidewalk not moving. I scooped it up onto a leaf, it was extremely sluggish, could barely move. It was 95 degrees yesterday, is currently 56.

After a tricky 3 days, Dewey (formerly Little T) has started to pack the grams back on. He just hit 250 and is right on pace for his age. Happy two week birthday buddy! Also note the glimmer of eyeballs!

Hey, Mitch. You could have prevented ALL THIS by voting to convict him and bar him from holding office again. Asshole.

Just In - The Justice Department fails to obtain Wisconsin voter data, as federal judge dismisses DOJ lawsuit over the information. It's the DOJ's latest courtroom loss as it seeks private voter data from states storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

A Florida wildlife biologist was summarily fired for *reposting* an Instagram joke about Charlie Kirk’s death. LibsofTikTok complained. A state official’s false statements in legal proceedings led to sanctions. And now the state will settle by paying her $485,000. www.aclufl.org/press-releas...

This is pretty unusual

Overachieving here... #birdoftheday theme is #Grasslands. Alt theme is #bird with #red in its plumage. This Pileated #Woodpecker fits the bill for both, with lawns in the background and red in its plumage. #birdwatching fineartamerica.com/featured/por...

NESTERAK: President Trump has granted clemency to numerous individuals who have stolen hundreds of millions in Medicaid funds. Can we expect any of these folks to be shown the same mercy? McDONALD: I'll take a different question

Well this is perfect. Alan @alan678.bsky.social has decreed the alt theme for #BirdOfTheDay is any bird with #Red in its plumage and that has to mean a #Robin, the favourite garden visitor of my lovely wife. Could this be Renata Alan? #ForJanet #Birds #ECK #Bloomscrolling #Photography #Wildlife

The #BirdOfTheDay theme today is #Grassland any bird pictured with grass. The alt is #red any bird with red in its plumage. #birds #photography #ECK @wildlifebcn.org #birdphotography #naturephotography #BirdLife There was a POW camp, barrage balloons & AA guns on Wanstead Flats during WW2.
