Home from Bubonicon and chilling with my familiar.
A young starling with brown feathers and a black eye love flats at the camera. Photo by me.
Starlings are invasive, noisy, and obnoxious, but their fledglings are quite intense. 🪶 #birds

Two vultures perched on an old train power line. One is on the cross beam, the other on the top.
Two crows on a sandstone ridge telling Odin about the group of humans camping below them ( that would be me and my co-workers.)
The white, sun-bleached skeleton of an elk lays in golden grass.
The sun highlights the red sandstone cliff across from our camp, casting an orange glow on the river below.
Being out in the wild for a few days was great. I never should have looked at social media when I got home. All that peace I had while disconnected is gone.

Doom-scrolling check point. Stretch, drink some water, scream into the void.
I feel this so much!
A says Phoebe goes after an itch on it's back, almost looking like it's tucked its head to sleep.
A song sparrow grips the y shaped branches of a tree. Facing the camera, it shows off the dark spot on its chest.
The red eyes of the spotted tower stand out in its inquisitive pose.
A cedar waxwing grips a branch. Its white-lined black mask stands out in the morning sun.
Bird dump! Says Phoebe, song sparrow, Spotted Towhee, Cedar Waxwing. 🪶
I've had a baby Waxom tablet for years ( I use it as a mouse too). Made digitizing stuff a lot easier! Have fun with it.
That looks amazing!

I hope all the protest voters and people who couldn't be bothered to vote at all "because they don't do politics" have the day that they deserve.

I highly recommend both the tea and the book!!
