This little dude was in my ear today, waiting for me to refill the bird feeder. Dee-Dee-Dee.

Today, I choose to live in gratitude For the breath of life. Even those times When only a small part of the rainbow appears, I give thanks, Knowing that right now, That is all I need. Happy #Chooseday, friends.

Some good news not to miss!!

Really crappy photos, but the moonrise was stunning, and Jupiter was shining bright as they rose side by side.

Snow day! We've seen coverings of snow across the country at places we care for... here's Chirk Castle looking very wintry this morning.

Hey peeps. Dont come into my dms, unless we’ve talked here for a long time, or know each other from somewhere else. But, just don’t. No need. Ok. Carry on on the main timeline now.

Good Question ⁉️

Ugh. Staying off FB tonight.

😅😅

Oooh! There’s some #bluesky

Marsh Tit, today at the Forest of Dean

Surprisingly I took this photo of the moon with my iPhone. I zoomed in to 40x and it actually got it.

Happy Sunday! We are at the end of our holiday stretch! We had clouds this morning so here's another shot from yesterday 11 minutes before sunrise looking south. I liked that the cloud angle and the shore angle were parallel. Tap for full size. I hope you have a great day!

Goodnight from Colorado 💙 💤 (Photo taken early yesterday morning.) #sky #clouds #sunrise #photography

Glad I looked up from my desk just in time to see this…

What grounds me in my community work aside from parenthood: “The children are always ours, every single one of them, all over the globe; and I am beginning to suspect that whoever is incapable of recognizing this may be incapable of morality”. - James Baldwin

What began 4 years ago as a way to honor my mother’s dying wish has quietly grown into a lifelong journey of seeing, feeling, and sharing the world differently. Photography has taught me patience, gratitude, and how to find light even in the darkest moments #BlueSkyPhotographer #BlueSkyPhotography

My favourite English cathedral:

Some of the old cities remained and were yet to be cordoned off. My favourite was Southampton, where you could walk for hours, alone, save for salt badgers & maritime ghosts. I like how in this photo of it you can discern the remains of Borders Bookstore, the NCP car park and the original Colosseum.

Getting outside, even with this forever recovering foot, has been essential to my mental health. Being holed up with the flu, has been challenging. Love the nature photos here. ❤️🙌🏼

Oh my girl, 🥺 we're all hoping the next car you go in to have some peace and quiet will be the one to drive you home. MELIA is tired of the noisy shelter. All she needs is an adult only home, a cozy bed, peaceful walks, and someone to love her. She can live with cats. No dogs. Come on 🥺🥺🥺

If ever there were a time you might want a separate but equal branch of the United States government to run a check on the president, it would be now ….

Had to shelve some music duties at church today. Just not strong enough yet. I feel sure now, that this was flu. My resistance to things has been way down. So, rest, and all the things, is what I’m trying to do. Have not left the house since Tuesday. I have taken Gracie outside.

Snow under the moon

Looking back on some of my favourite moments of 2025. These 8-month-old cubs coming to check out the tundra buggy was definitely one of those unforgettable encounters. #mammals 🌿

Even Venezuelans who despise Maduro do not want a foreign power running their country.

We are sure it’s just a coincidence, but today is the statuatory date for the DOJ to explain its redactions in the Epstein file productions. We have not forgotten, and we won’t let up - regardless of the President’s new unconstitutional actions.

Um. ARE they’re Venezuelans cheering in the streets? I wouldn’t want to put any in danger at this moment by demanding an answer.

”why didn’t the Russian people rise up against Putin‘s war?” hm. Look around you, maybe

🚨 HAPPENING NOW! Jan 3, 2025 Protesters have gathered in Times Square, joining 75+ cities around the country in protest to say NO WAR ON VENEZUELA! “Money for jobs & education, not for war & occupation!”

❤️😭😭❤️🦮🐕🐩🐕‍🦺🐶

Big Leany is done reading the news of our doings.

babe wake up, they're doing insider trading on war crimes

VP Delcy Rodriguez, whom Trump indicated earlier today was collaborating with the US government, is live on television right now. Earlier reports that she's in Russia are false. She's in Caracas with the rest of the cabinet. Rodriguez: "We will never again be a colony for any empire"

Happy #Caturday! On a sunny day in November. (Intentional color drench) #MauiCruz21 #GingerCats #Photography

Dat bankje op de perfecte plek. Winter in Noord Limburg bij de Kasteelse bossen in Horst. ❄️✨️❄️✨️ Ik wens jullie een hele mooie avond.

Going to go practice. Not going to get distracted. 🤞

Arguably the best photo I’ve ever taken of an ominous stranger on horseback approaching lazy cattle on a chalk hilltop beneath an irascible sky.

I finished reading Aiden’s Christmas Oratorio last night. Wow. I will read again. Meanwhile, anyone have favorite poetry volumes of his, to recommend?

Maduro is a brutal and oppressive dictator of Venezuela. Trump has no legitimate legal basis for military action against Venezuela under United States or international law. Both of those facts are simultaneously true.

#caturday This lovely cat has been visiting our community garden lately. Lots of good bird watching and sunbathing to enjoy
