They used to be frequent visitors.

Someone is getting their tummy rubbed. I don't know if you can tell who.

This small hoglet briefly came out of the hedge just now. He looked very alert & Bristol-fashion despite being out before nightfall & quickly retraced his steps back into the depths of the hedge. I'll put a camera down tonight to see if he's part of larger family & assess how they look. #Hedgehogs

Day 1369 — Spotted in the wild at a Triathlon/Duathlon this weekend. 💜❤️‍🩹❤️ Next time that little voice tells you nobody cares, remember that the best of us do, deeply. And that they, too, are out there. #LongCOVID #MECFS #pwME

On this day in 1963, the Equal Pay Act became law, prohibiting sex discrimination in wages for the same job in the same workplace. Rep. Edith Green (D-OR) introduced the bill in 1955 and fought for 8 years to make it law. Her male colleagues called her the “Wicked Witch of the West.” #WeTheMen

Listen to your children read. Read to your children. Read alongside your children. Take them to libraries. Talk about what reading means to you & what it can unlock in them. Tell them it doesn’t matter if it’s comics, magazines or books as long as they’re engaged with the written word.

Brace yourselves!! 😹

My happy lil’ sandpiper is finished!! They’re my favorite birds to watch on the beach; possibly my favorite birds full-stop. Love them. #birds #birdart

I’ve struggled with panic attacks, depression, and agoraphobia for decades. I have published over 20 novels with different publishers and made friends around the world. This is just to say: you can still do great things with mental illness. I believe in you. ♥️

Good morning. Today’s #BirdOfTheDay theme is #TheGathering Images showing flocks, colonies, or communal behaviour. The alt is #LivingLandscape a single bird as part of a wider natural scene. Good luck!! Flock of Juvenile Starlings Yesterday. #birds #photography #ECK

Yes, knowing about it causes you to look up - always a good thing! And setting aside the science, it also feels awfully polite - the trees giving one another space 🤓

For me, no spots. The birds are beautiful enough

Beautiful example Jan 🙏⭐

It's tough to find love in the deep sea. If you find another one of your species, that might be your only chance to mate. That's why male Octopoteuthis deletron squids mate with male and females squids equally. (also they'll detach one their arms to escape a predator like a lizard tail) 🦑📷MBARI
