#bird This Cooper's hawk has decided a patio chair is the perfect perch to observe nearby bird feeders. 🥺

Vaccines cause adults. A lower Cancer rate with vaxes, imagine that.

All sentient creatures feel this way tonight.

#caturday This is Wyatt who was part of the Tucson bobcat study. He's not wearing his collar anymore because those came off after a year of tracking but he's recognizable. He's a full grown male who travels the washes from my friend's house, where this is, north towards me. He's a cool guy.

#caturday Young bobcat on my friends patio about a mile from me on Tucson's west side. Both of us live on a large wash system which the bobcats and other desert animals use as highways. 🐾

Great. Dr. "Masks Don't Work" Is going to lead the CDC and the NIH.

Beautiful evening in Tucson.

@montisboeher.bsky.social Just put a box in the mail to you. Included is a chiltapine chili grinder (molinillo)as well as some chiltepines from Magdalena de Kino in Sonora, Mexico and some that I grow here in Tucson. Let us know how you use them in recipes. They're hot! 🌶️

So the ""FDA" (whose head Marty McCary thinks all drugs should be available OTC has whipsawed back to looking at the Moderna's mRNA vaxes. I'd follow the stock buys, yet another way the 1% in tRump's orbit and cabinet are making $$$ off our backs. www.cnbc.com/2026/02/18/f...

Fast pigs. Javalinas zipping through on garbage day looking for a victim can. The actual garbage was emptied an hour earlier so the only thing left is recycle bins. They didn't get those either, maybe they were just having an early morning race?

Let's get her back her followers!

#Arizona #Flowers Can you spot the red orange globe mallow wildflowers? These are usually the first to bloom and were one of my wildflowers the HOA was whining about as "weeds". These are in my backyard so those morons have no say.

#caturday Two of my best friends, cat ladies both, just dropped this off as a Valentine's memorial for my little Chita who we lost 3 weeks ago. She loved to sit on this window seat and watch Bird TV outside. I was so touched. Friends and cats are everything. 🫂❤️😸

#caturday This just looks like two kitties going out into a catio on a sunny Tucson day. In truth, the little black cat Freya is totally blind and she is following her friend out on an adventure. ❤️😸 Heartsthatpurr.org

Dang it, there's some bad actors out there.

#Arizona Happy ❤️🌵 Valentine's Day and Arizona Statehood Day. In 1912 Arizona was admitted to the union and was called the baby state as well until 1959.

Just fixed my Bluesky following count - removed 250 inaccurate accounts using blueskytracker.app Found it. Thanks for the heads-up on this!

#javalina A friend who lives here in a desert area similar to ours sent me this. This is a 3-legged javelina who visits often, always alone. Javalinas are herd animals, but we've noticed that if there is anything wrong they shun that animal. Not making anthropomorphic comparisons, but I kind of am.

@montisboeher.bsky.social #ORZO! Wearing my Orzo the Cat t-shirt today in honor of Bluesky's favorite Russian Blue. May we respectfully request Ziti t-shirts?

#SuperbOwlSunday For us it is Superb Owl Sunday. We are so fortunate to have Western screech owls living and visiting in our yard and surroundings. They are special little birds.

It was 84 in Tucson today. Everything is growing like crazy. We have a new moronic management company for our HOA and I got a letter about the "weeds" in my yard. They're penstemon wildflowers ready to bloom. I am so tired of stupid people. I had to make signs. I hope they can read.

Another fabulous sunset in Tucson. High was 79.3 on our weather station. Too warm for February.

#Tucson Next Thursday. Guessing it's on the NE side to start, big parking lot.

#RFKjr and "Dr" Oz with the healthy America they have envisioned for us.

#Tucson While the pedophile in chief is sundowning, Tucson got a nice sunset.

She's going up against the entrenched GOP previous Gov & lege that for years bowed to pre$$ure from the Saudis who sucked western Arizona dry. Some guardrails are now in place but pleased to see she's not letting it go. Water is life here & growing alfalfa 4 Saudi cows ain't in our best interests.

#Arizona #javalina A very timely calendar picture this month. Last night there were eight of them knocking over bird water dishes on our wildlife camera.

Southern Arizona is out there! Tucson had a huge crowd downtown yesterday. Today in Green Valley guessing about 800 plus but I didn't get very good pictures.

#ICEOUT No time to add artwork to the latest sign, we're out the door. Stay safe everybody today.

#stopICE Off to Green Valley for a STOP ICE protest today. Usually a good size crowd even in this red retirement area.

Ho ho ho.

A tough read about a couple of kids who could have belonged to any of us in any part of the country. I am so glad she shared this about her best friend.

If you are a postcard writer, there are a number of groups that I've worked with. This is one of them. They're targeting specific states. Georgia, Iowa, Maine, North Carolina are some of them. Open attachment for more info.

www.tucsonaz.gov/Government/C... Good guide for locals and general good info overall. Helpful links. Stay safe, stay informed.

#sunrise A cold for us 33° at sunrise.

JD Vance's dog. Thanks to @denalisam.bsky.social

Marsh Family does it again. Excellent as always.

#birds Got a new bird feeder for Christmas and finally hung it up. With the rain it took a bit for the little guys to show up. So far the black throated sparrows are hogging it.

Never forget their sacrifice.

#caturday #cats People have been so kind. Chewy sent us flowers after I called to cancel the food and pharmacy orders with them. My brother-in-law who initially rescued Chita sent me kitten pictures that I had never seen before. I miss my girl but we have full hearts & happy memories.

#bot Block party after the protest!

#stopICE Still has the plastic wrap on it from the rain rally but it's looking cloudy and smells like rain today so I'm leaving it on. Be safe everybody. !Viva Minnesota!

Everyday lately.

#recall #tuna Geez. Every day more and more of this stuff.

#Tucson. #tomorrow

@charlieangus104.bsky.social Looks like our asswhole despot just made PM Carney's day.
