Tule fog in California. Fog is filling the valley. #landscape

Foggy weather brings out the colors. #birds

Meadow Lark Such a pretty bird! #birds

Cloudy skies didn't deter this Anna's from enjoying a shower. #birds

The bluebirds are gone but now I have yellow birds. #birds Lesser Goldfinch

The Sandhill Cranes are back at the wildlife refuge. #birds

Pinnable.

Bluebirds are a daily visitor to the bird bath. They are enthusiastic bathers and a delight to watch. #birds

The feeder gets lots of traffic most of the year. Mostly Anna's but Rufous and Black-chinned visit during migration. #birds

Do hawks get annoyed? Looks pissed off to me. #birds

Rufous hummingbirds have arrived at the feeder. They are colorful and aggressive birds and always a welcome visitor. #birds

Father bird has his hands full. His offspring are constantly demanding food and attention. #birds

Bluebirds are very fond of water. They frequently come by in the evening to take a bath. This is an adult male Western bluebird. #birds

And worse by the day:

This is an obvious point, but cannot overstated. There is an enormous difference between deporting someone - where they get off a plane as a free citizen in their home country AND FUNNELING THEM INTO A BRUTAL PRISON FROM WHICH THEY HAVE NO CHANCE OF EVER EMERGING!!!

Holy shit. This is the funniest political ad I’ve ever seen. The Republican House Caucus wants it taken down. You know what to do.

So, instead, they're taking away any programs or services that benefit the "undesirables," and we're financing their goal with our tax money. They're committing genocide by bankrupting, starving, and withholding healthcare. It's social mass murder.

Everyone in this administration is a follower of Curtis Yarvin. He says everyone is either "desirable" or "undesirable." The poor, disabled, minorities, LGBTQ, elderly, etc. are all "undesirables." They know it would be morally reprehensible to commit genocide.

I hope reposting counts 🇲🇽

What a start to the year 💀

Hummingbird activity is picking up and soon the hordes will descend. At peak season hundreds of hummingbirds will visit the feeders. They go through at least a quart of nectar a day.

Europe is standing up to Putin, Trump gets on his knees for him.

Western bluebird- one of my favorite birds. #birds

So, was the Russian TASS reporter in the oval office story true? And if so, isn't the WH statement that they don't know how he got in there kind of a big story?

Trump posted this “Trump Gaza” AI video late last night to Truth Social

Whenever I get depressed about the destruction of our country by Trump and Elon, I remember climate change. And that cheers me right up.

Whoever did this is going to get in some very serious trouble (potentially even serious criminal charges given who's running the DC US Attorney's office right now), but you can't deny that's a pretty good prank.

Donald Trump did not write the Art of the Deal. Tony Schwartz wrote it. Trump is not a great negotiator. He's a bully.

This reminds me of the old adage: Libertarians are like house cats, they’re convinced of their fierce independence while dependent on a system they don’t appreciate or understand. In fact, we all live in a system that we cannot understand.

Trump on his call with Putin: “We agreed to work together, very closely, including visiting each other’s Nations.”

Pop quiz: People are saying the kid says “you’re not the president you need to go away” — do y’all hear it too?
