Senior parrots, birds, birding, rock swaps, crystals & stone-cutting. Sometimes I write funny dialogue for the birds in your photographs. I read books, & I vote!

i suspect when the friend suggested reading fiction as a palate cleanser, they meant breezy romance romps or page-turning thrillers not 1000 page historical novels...

we don't have to be productive every minute of the day & every book doesn't have to be deep... my advise is to move on & try to find a genre that, for you, actually does serve the purpose of providing a break between heavy nonfiction reads...

This is #healthcare in the #USA

A #doctor argues for approval for a procedure with a #UnitedHealthcare hack

She posted it on social media and is now blacklisted by #UHC and she had to sell her house and get a lawyer, they're ruining her career over this video:

If you live in the #US dont get too mad- your blood pressure will spike and your healthcare sucks because you're just "a little person" and your moronic country prefers you to just die

It was beyond wild and gorgeous to see dozens of white-faced ibises at the lake reservoir yesterday. My pictures all came out pretty patchy in focus (shaky hand day for me), but even so, and even given the practically lurid colors of the muggy detritus and sinking algae to compete with (left behind to as the reservoir drains and evaporates), I hope you can see what gorgeous birds these are (those oilskin-like ruddy necks and emerald wings!). It was such a thrill to find them.

Heaven Help Me

I found this little dispute between two blue jays (Cyanocitta cristata) at the bird feeder both amusing and oddly theatrical. The jay inside the feeder seems to be mid-complaint, wings flared wide as if shielding its treasure from the intruder. Meanwhile, the bird perched on the arm of the swing gazes upward with a weary tilt, as if silently pleading, “Lord, help me.”

If you're enchanted by images of blue jays and other captivating corvids, dive into my photo gallery for a visual treat! Take a peek:

Fraud felon rapist is in the #EpsteinFiles and has brought a war criminal terrorist to a U.S. military base. And kremlin killers and KGB intelligence pigs are on the highly sensitive US base right now.

Treasonous.

Remember, the parents of 2 of his 3 wives (Ivana and Melania) were part of the communist party and are/were informants for security services.

@renzelen I remember Iran contra & the reality that dealing with tyrants for self enrichment has always been what GOPs have done in our lifetime ... they haven't changed but the tolerance of their past criminality has made them open about their support for fascism

The #sparrows return home from hunting. Full and satisfied, blood from the deer they have killed drips from their beaks.
So small, yet so bloodthirsty.

White Supremacy is an economic system as well as a social & political one. The USA is desperate to avoid the results of demographic change.

More women graduating from university. More black & brown voters getting social mobility.

The USA is cutting off its future to keep its bigotry. Reducing the sources of success.

Removing women from the workforce kneecaps the economy

Suppressing wages & votes reduces productivity & progress. Reduces tax revenue, innovation, and engagement
