Woodland Kingfisher. We could hear these guys calling to their mates at almost every bit of woodland adjacent to water, but they seldom came down to eye level. This pair was very agitated at the presence of a a large monitor snoozing in the bush and they came down to yell at it - and lucky for us - do a bit of displaying as well. #birds #birdphotography

Random: Collapsed lung? Two weeks to recover?!? That's a major, critical injury (I surmise, flail chest --where you break your ribs in multiple places, leading to a collapsed lung and inability to breathe).

AP: "Pistons guard Cade Cunningham has collapsed lung, will miss time, AP source says"

Pistons' Cade Cunningham has collapsed lung, will miss at least 2 weeks

All-Star guard Cade Cunningham of the Eastern Conference-leading Detroit Pistons has a collapsed lung and is expected to miss at least two weeks and possibly more. The team announced the diagnosis Thursday. The Pistons listed Cunningham as out for Thursday’s game in Washington with a left back contusion. Cunningham got hurt in Tuesday’s win over Washington, leaving midway through the opening quarter with what the team called back spasms. Cunningham is averaging 24.5 points and 9.9 assists for the Pistons. Detroit entered Thursday 3 1/2 games ahead of Boston for the top spot in the East with 14 games remaining.

Hey #sfba and #California , esp #norcal, hot days are perfect days to hike in the redwoods, esp early morning or sunset. Worth taking a day off work for, since it'll be your last chance this heatwave.

This print caught my eye, and of course it was Richard Shorty, the same artist who I already have a few prints and an original by. I thought the Fediverse would appreciate this one.
