Go do whatever you want! (by u/[Deleted user])

No, this is not Photoshop or a disoriented photo. Photographer Vincent TC captured a goose trying to land with lots of headwinds in the Netherlands. The bird is trying to brake, briefly turning upside down except for the head. This method is called wiffling, a maneuver birds use to rapidly lose altitude by twisting their bodies mid-air.

On a more positive note this morning;

Slow Ways whose volunteers have been mapping 10,000 miles of walks in an act of 'citizen geography' now have made their walking guide available online.

The website allows you to assess the suitability of walks for your abilities & constraints.

As we struggle to deal with the hell of AI, and toxicity of social media, its good to see what real people working together with technology can achieve!

@Natasha_Jay I always knew people eventually went through a second childhood, but lately I've become aware that they go through a second teenagerhood first 😄
