One life fuels another. Predation is a special thing to witness. This is one way energy flows through the natural world. #birds

Figuring out how to use video as a photographic technique. It’s only 30 fps at 8K and while I can do 120 at 4K it’s just that the resolution isn’t enough to pull stills. This is a still from 8K footage and looks great. I processed the frame in Lightroom.

Highly recommended!

Palestinians say they have no choice but to go to deadly US- and Israeli-backed aid sites amid growing starvation.

In addition to the all horrific thing this Republican Billionaire Bill does to Medicaid and health care and nursing homes, it also gives an obscene amount of money to create a massive police state that will terrorize Americans. People need to focus on that as well.

If a sitting president can openly muse about arresting and disappearing someone who is likely to become mayor of the country's largest city, while also getting the funding for a massive secret police, it'd be hard to find sufficient evidence to qualify that country as a democracy.

Dissent is treated as terrorism, while terrorism is just state policy. #PalestineAction

There is no justification whatsoever for the US or UK to provide any support, material or diplomatic, for Israel's attack on Iran. It is a war of aggression, clearly contrary to international law.

ABOLISH ICE. We don't want masked, armed thugs that terrorize America. We don't need ICE. Enough.

Gonna level with you bro I think DHS needs to be dissolved after this. Regardless of what national security functions fall under its remit, it's clearly institutionally constructed in such a way allows it to be used as an unaccountable tool of executive power. Can't reform your way out of that.

“latest shooting of gazans seeking food”

Anyone who supports this war with Iran is officially one of the baddies. You can tune them out and if they are an elected official, it's time to primary them. Enough of hateful war hawks who sow chaos to feed the military industrial complex and their bellies.

Where do people imagine foundations that make free citizen science tools get their money from? If cooperation with / getting funding from Google is a dealbreaker for you, I've got some bad news for you about Merlin. And eBird.
