We live in turbulent times and we can't predict what might happen in 2026, but we can all aim to be kind, tolerant, honest and decent human beings. Hope all of you have a great Christmas and best wishes for the New Year. #HolidayRobin #birds #EastCoastKin #Christmas p.s. - feed the birds ☺️

You are either on Team Release Everything (except for victim info), or you are a pedo protector. And everyone satisfied with this obvious cover up is on Team Pedo Protector. There is no middle ground. That is who you are.

#ArtAdventCalendar Day 22 is my portrait of Inky! I wanted to highlight this embroidery because capturing features with black fur is a challenge and the reference image was small and lower quality so I’m extra pleased with how she turned out! 🖤

#BirdOfTheDay, #BirdsOnTwigs I caught this Bay Breasted Warbler during spring migration at Magee Marsh on Lake Erie in Ohio. This location brings birders from across the world to witness concentrations of warblers as they pass through. Amazing. #birds #birdphotography #birdwatching #birdmigration

Day 22 of my 2025 Favorites: Fancy wavy children 💜 I'm pretty sure I'm contractually obligated (by me) to include this Tutelina species in my end of year favorites. One can understand. They're just perfect and I love them. #EmotionalSupportSpood

Journeyed to the world-famous Tambopata clay lick today, where hundreds of macaws and parrots gather to eat the mineral-rich clay in the riverbank. The minerals counteract toxins in their diets and are a rich source of calcium, magnesium, and sodium. ❤️💛💙 #Macaws #Amazon #Peru

Teslin Lake. #Watercolour on paper, 8x10 inches. #Watercolor #YukonArt Painting of the day 2126.

Oh i forgot how cute baby gulls were for a second. 🪶 🐣

#ArtAdventCalendar Dec. 21 Crow is our friend. She has a damaged wing, but can fly, and has come back to nest in the area, and hang out in our yard, for the last few years. She’s getting a drink and is showing off the subtle iridescence that crow feathers have! #Birds #photography #wildlife 🪶

This is a crop of some Photoshop artwork I did for The Garden Jungle Xmas cards I designed for family and neighbours this year #thegardenjungle

Something different from me today, here is a time I had an amazing encounter with a family of Red Shanked Douc-Langars in the jungle in Vietnam #thegardenjungle #vietnam #douclangar

#BirdOfTheDay #Grounded

For the #BlueSkyArtShow theme of #OpenHouse. This little black bear cub was outside my apartment in September of 2023. Wildfires sere bad that year, and it was trying to get into the garbage. It seemed to be alone, so I hope it got through a rough summer and is now doing okay.

​It is the darkest hour here in the north on this spinning ball of life May you feel the warm flame of unconditional love and unperturbed peace and unbreakable connection You, and everything One. #BlueSkyArtShow #OpenHouse #photography #EastCoastKin #dharma #poetry #imageandverse

My partner made this torn paper collage of a quail as a present for another family member. #Birds #ArtAdventCalendar #Stunday #EastCoastKin
