Tufted titmouse eating seed from my hand. A healing experience.

Ugh, I thought Frank was all done with city council

@sarahiwany.bsky.social #Allston #Brighton artist, birding leader, and ABHA member is entertaining 1000s of commuters today on the WGBH digital display over the Mass Pike! Congrats, Sarah! Now, Allstonites, who is that a portrait of?

Once upon a time, on April Fool’s Day 2023, I pranked myself by dropping my car keys down my building’s elevator shaft. Fast forward to this past weekend and the elevator broke down. I asked building management to fix the elevator and please check for car keys while they were at it. 🛗 🔑 1/2

Congratulations to Sharon Lokedi on winning the Boston Marathon! Pictures by me from mile 22

12 years to the day since the Boston Marathon bombing. Here are some happy moments I took of the day before the tragedy.

Rainbow over Boston 🌈

Treasures from @boston.gov’s Love Your Block park cleanup in lower Allston today

The United States of America: a country where you get the privilege of paying hundreds of dollars a month for health insurance yet still have to ask yourself, “Can I afford to get a diagnostic procedure?”

My hospital has this on their gastroenterology page. I’m rolling my eyes so hard I’m gonna need a referral to an ophthalmologist.

Happy two year anniversary to the time I April Fool’s pranked myself by dropping my car keys down an elevator shaft 🙃

Quick quiz for you local history nerds: which animal was partially responsible for the US bicameral system? A. A cow B. A pig C. A camel D. A horse #bostonhistory #bospoli #mapoli @universalhub.com

I still occasionally get emails for science-related job opportunities even though I’ve been a full-time nanny for 6+ years. So uhhhh… If anyone wants to work the night shift at the medical examiners office… There’s an opening…

@joshforboston.bsky.social hi Josh I made you a cool ad

Here you go @joshforboston.bsky.social I’m ready to get paid the big bucks to be your campaign’s graphic designer #bospoli @universalhub.com

My friends had their legs blown off you fucking ghoul.

Pete Sessions flippantly saying the Boston Marathon bombing “only killed a couple people” is disgusting

My takeaways from the house oversight committee hearing: @mayorwu.boston.gov is a champ. Cool and calm while being berated and 8 weeks postpartum. Dang. Eric Adams is a coward @ayannapressley.bsky.social shouldn’t have been silenced Republicans think speaking over people makes them right.

Greetings from my suitors this morning #wildturkeys #birds

Old snow + melting = prime snowman sculpting snow ⛄️ Meet Frosty, created by me and my nanny kid #boston #snowman

An ad put up at a bus stop in London today.

My cat has her own TV at this point and it’s bigger than mine. (I got a free tv but it’s annoying to set up so now Maggie gets to watch bird and squirrel videos to her hearts content)

The before, during, and after of clearing debris and garbage off a storm drain.

Why is “kidnapping” bad but “kids napping” is good?

French toast weather

No fair, I wanna feel the earthquake

This is the only TikTok I care about

Juxtaposition. #freepalestine

Snowflakes ❄️

Snow!

@stacos.bsky.social new text scam claiming to be @boston.gov about unpaid parking tickets

Is this your frozen turkey? I saw it at Chestnut Hill Reservoir. Not sure if it’s a lost or if it’s an outdoor frozen turkey

Todays fog featuring and American coot and it’s goofy feet

Oh boy, the anniversary effect is rearing its ugly head once again. Too many death anniversaries in the next two weeks. Even if my conscious brain pretends to forgets, my body is on edge every year at this time waiting for something bad to happen.

TV is the absolute worst way to get your news and my mind will not be changed

What a weirdo storm! Usually the snow leaves the Boston area alone in a little bubble and areas west get way more snow. This time Brighton has about 4” and the Concord area has 1”. Definitely breaking the 1” margin in Boston @efisherwx.bsky.social

It snowed

BREAKING NEWS: The City of Boston has had enough with complaints from drivers and cyclists about bike lanes so here’s the new plan: The city will be car-free and bicycle-free. As we anticipate continued climate change and sea level rises, we’ve decided to adopt the Venice model of city planning.

Ended up front and center at tonight’s Streetlight Manifesto concert! I wanna say it was my 14th or 15th Streetlight show? Excellent performance as always

Got to meet Gregory Maguire today and get my copy of Wicked signed before a screening of the new movie (which was awesome) and a Q&A with the author. It was a wicked cool experience (pun intended)

A wonderful day to sell some art and engage with my community 🥰 #allston #brighton #boston #treelighting

American coots 🥰 I love my weirdo pond chickens. Approximately 40 visit my local reservoir every winter. #americancoot #birds #urbanbirding #boston

Billie the female mallard with an oral fistula #birds #ducks #oralfistula

Let it snow ❄️ 🦃

It’s snowing!!!

Turns out that people have different interpretations of “tree lighting” and now I’m in trouble with the fire department

Dear Santa, I want this for Christmas

Working on rat ornaments again! #allstonratcity

Bald eagle, merlin, yellow-bellied sapsucker, and American coots at Chestnut Hill Reservoir this morning as well as a red-tailed hawk, a downy woodpecker, black-capped chickadees, and a TON of ruddy ducks. #baldeagle #merlin #yellowbelliedsapsucker #americancoot #allstonbrightonbirders #urbanbirding

Alright I’m gonna need this app to suck less (let me turn off peoples retweet privileges and default my feed to the last tweet I saw)
