In case you’re wondering how much snow has fallen in the Sierra Nevada… A friend shared this photo of a gentleman shoveling snow off his ROOF in Quincy, California.
When it comes to Red-bellied #Woodpeckers, I noticed that for some reason, I see the females more in the warm season and the males more often during colder weather. Interestingly enough, they very rarely visit the tree cam whereas the Downys love it there. #birds #birdsofMastodon #Ostdrossel

Let me get this straight: saying racist things is protected free speech, but talking about racism in an educational, historical context is not?

That can't be right.

Some more sights of Mr. Blue today. I am still trying to come up with names for the couple this year but so far, I have come up with nothing. There is still time though, they have not started building yet.
