There are 17 subspecies of Hairy Woodpeckers with considerable variations in coloration. Some are intensely white; ours in Washington state are dirtier-looking; and the Costa Rican is this lovely rich brown color (the Leuconotopicus villosus extimus subspecies). #birds #woodpeckers #nature

Night night sweet dreamies Self-care isn't always bubble baths and wine. It's also setting boundaries, having difficult conversations, and letting go of the past. Your wounds will never heal if you don't stop touching them.

I love crocheting scarves as holiday gifts. And really enjoying making ruffled ones this year. Done thus far:

Goodemorning Gonzobongos! Donot yu think my wiskars looke extra feastive todaye?

My purple African Violet has been hiding a beautiful secret beneath its leaves, which I would have never noticed except for moving it to a higher shelf with a plant light for the winter. Such gorgeous texture and contrasting colors!

The Tasselled Wobbegong is a master of disguise that can eat a fish almost as big as itself in one gulp. It's classified as a shark, but when it lays on the sea floor it looks like a harmless rug if you manage to see it. But with powerful jaws and sharp teeth they are no fish to mess with.

Good morning, BlueSky Friends! 😎 One of my last shots of the #Sunrise between the branches from Nov 18. I doubt I will ever see this again so I took multiple shots. #PNW #Photography

Our friend the Bleeding Toad is a critically endangered toad from West Java, Indonesia! They get their name from their bright red spots and the red liquid they secrete when stressed! (photo by A. Restu Dwikelana)

"Cosmic filaments are the largest known structures in the universe: vast, thread-like formations of galaxies and dark matter that form a cosmic scaffolding. They also act as "highways" along which matter and momentum flow into galaxies."

No one is more surprised than me that I've finished it in time to wear for winter.

Cast off time! 🤩

I picked some garlic chives this morning. They are still growing away under fleece. I gave up planting garlic bulbs because of rust (the plant not me), but garlic chives are a good stand-in. They are nice in stirfries. And the bees love their flowers in the summer. #gardening

Revisiting the idea of making a complete tiny tapestry in a day, now that I’ve found all the missing yarns 😊 This is inspired by the brilliant sunsets over the Bullen Range and the Brindabellas. • #handspunyarn #australianspinnersandweavers #canberraspinnersandweavers #australiantapestry

Uh oh!

Autumn Delight, Lyda & Pax planted bare root last weekend. Ground was soft, while tottering about on my painted-purple walking boards (recycled from panto scenery), felt I was in danger of toppling into the planting holes. The perils of #rose planting! Have a good #RoseWednesday take care! 🌱
