Magni enjoys a good scratch. #IcelandicHorse

Have hope.

"I will share pretty pictures of ice with the internet," I think, only to encounter nature's own surprise dick pic.

Why yes, the mushrooms do go all the way up. #fungi

An old yellow birch, Betula allegheniensis, whose rotted trunk split three ways. Although yellow birches have a very flexible rooting systems, spreading widely horizontally or down 1.5m if conditions allow, the wind will knock them over in shallow, poorly drained soils like my backyard wetlands.

Snowy snoot. #horse

Dead together: a birch stump, and likely some rotting Fomes fomentarius. Everything in the forest is rotting, growing, dying all at once.

#CatsOfMastodon Who else has a kitty who likes head kisses? I never used to kiss animals, but Wimsey pushes her fuzzy little head against my face on purpose.

For an early Caturday, I present to you my cat Wimsey demanding that I make a lap for her. I did so after taking this picture. I am whipped. #Caturday #CatsOfMastodon

I love this very much.
