We had one of my favorite fall meals for dinner tonight: Smoky Black Bean & Butternut Squash Tacos (ingredients in Alt Text). I stuffed the shells too full and they fell apart while I was eating them, but I didn't care because they tasted so good! #FoodOnFriday #Photography #EastCoastKin

Happy #worldembroideryday I create imaginary pictures using the needle like a paintbrush, and the threads as my palette, it’s always an interesting journey where they will take me.😊🧵🪡🌿🌺 Here’s just a few of them… #stitchedart #embroidery #thesewingsongbird

It’s a collage type of day. 😉 16 little snippets of details taken from a variety of my embroideries. I hope it brightens your timeline… 🪡🌿🌺✨🌱🪻🪷 #stitchedart #thesewingsongbird

This male Brewer's blackbird (Euphagus cyanocephalus) was crossing the street like he had someplace important to be. #Birds #FlyDay #Photography #EastCoastKin

This is Molly, who I'm fairly certain had PTSD & nightmares. She was affectionate with me once I gained her trust, but usually either avoided or was aggressive toward others, especially at the vet's office. #CatsNoirFriday #Cats #CatSky #CatsOfBlueSky #Photography #ColorADay #BWFri #EastCoastKin

Today's #BirdOfTheDay is all about #CloseUps set by @robcrank68.bsky.social

🕉️ May your #WoodpeckerWednesday be filled with polka-dot vibes!! 🤘😶‍🌫️ 📸 Colaptes auratus, a red-shafted female 🪶🌿 #Woodpeckers #Photography #EastCoastKin #BirdLovers

Today's #BirdoftheDay theme is #CloseUps. Here's a Rose-breasted Grosbeak outside the kitchen window. #birds #birdphotography

Some recent sketch pages in a mixed media sketchbook I just found again in my stash. #art #watercolor #naturejournal

I have a lot of blurry photos of birds eating. This Nicobar pigeon (Caloenas nicobarica) is probably the best photo I have of a bird enjoying #lunchtime. Taken at Woodland Park Zoo. #BirdOfTheDay #Birds #Photography #EastCoastKin

Out of curiosity, I looked to see if Chewy had a pet food donation program, and they do: www.chewy.com/g/give-back Enter your location and it lists area organizations, including pet food pantries, and their needs. Also seems to be a good place to start if you are in need of pet food too.

If you have a grade schooler, maybe throw a couple of extra snacks in their lunchbox this week to give to the teacher, who will know which kids need them.

If you need this, I hope it helps

Some of the local blackberries seem confused. We had plenty of berries in mid-August, but they were mostly gone by the end of the month. A few days ago, I noticed a couple of bushes trying to produce berries again. #Photography #ColorADay #RedWed #EastCoastKin

Happy #WhiskersWednesday! Ella got a new catnip banana to enjoy when we went on vacation. She has lots of other toys, but these are always her favorite. #Cats #CatSky #CatsOfBlueSky

Ok, good thing I started this one early enough because it was a project! But I had to do one of my favorite birds proud. It is always fascinating to me how birds that you think of as black are actually so many different colors. Here's my turkey vulture for this month's #BirdWhisperer #SciArt 🪶

Y'all - now you know us photogs are NOT kidding when we say the Northern Pygmy owls are SO SO SMOL!

I had never heard of these until @gettoknownature.bsky.social shared a photo of one and now they are one of my favorite little birds! So pretty!

Beautiful fall morning by my home. Cell phone capture. #photography #landscape

I don't get many #CloseUps of birds, but here's my favorite shot of Roxy, one of 2024's mischievous chicks, who I refer to as "the trouble twins." #BirdOfTheDay #Birds #Chickens #Photography #EastCoastKin

#birdoftheday is a #closeup! Check out the rainbow of colors on this male Ring-Necked pheasant's plumage fineartamerica.com/featured/por... #birds #birdwatching #BeautyInNature

Here's a small sample of Joy's work

There's a nice patch of colors in an otherwise kind of dull autumn.

My god this is for real one of the most incredible speeches I’ve ever seen by an elected US politician: ‘And if there is any way to terrify a despot, it is to dismantle the very conditions that allowed him to accumulate power. This not only how we stop Trump, it’s how we stop the next one.’

Nothing beats New Hampshire fall! 🍁 #photography #nature #landscape #naturephotography #fall #autumn #landscapephotography #leaves

Juvenile barn owl. I was lucky enough to know a guy who had barn owls nesting in his barn every year. 🪶

El Malpais National Monument New Mexico Nature shapes with breath and time. Stone curves where wind once lingered. Pines rise like quiet columns. Beauty doesn’t ask. It waits to be honored. Stand still and let nature speak to your heart. #newmexico #landscapephotography #photography

#November_Kiek #doorgang ,poort of deur @ikbendaan.bsky.social Deze prachtige rotspoort is "kirkeporten", in Noorwegen. Vanaf hier kun je de noordkaaprots zien te herkennen aan zijn hoorn zie foto 1 de rots in verte. Het was prachtig hier en we hadden zelfs 2 dolfijnen gezien. Fijne dag allemaal! 🤗

We're in the damp, cloudy, grey season here in the Pacific Northwest, so here's a photo of blue skies over Zuma Beach in sunny Southern California. #Photography #Beach #ColorADay #BlueTue #TidesOutTuesday #EastCoastKin

Big Bear Lake California Good night and sleep well As dusk gathers its final colors, and the lake cradles the sun’s last breath, step softly into the quiet between worlds. Float gently through the hush, and rest where night begins to dream. #photography #bigbearlake #bigbear #California

Réveil d’un matin enchanté, douceur hivernale au bord de l’eau, symphonie de glace et de lumière pour démarrer ce Lundigestion en beauté. Ah, Lundi, tu es presque magique. 🩶🤍🤎🧡💖🥰
