White Ibis–A quiet sentinel of Florida weather, pausing at the edge of light and shadow. A bird known for flying off before storms and returning before the skies have fully cleared. #photography

Carrie Jacobs‑Bond (1862–1946)
Composer of more than 175 songs, she became one of America’s most beloved writers of parlor music. Widowed young and nearly penniless, she supported herself by painting, giving lessons, and eventually publishing her own songs. #music
Man's attitude toward nature is today critically important simply because we have now acquired a fateful power to alter and destroy nature. But man is a part of nature, and his war against nature is inevitably a war against himself." #climatechange #photography

So, the administration forgot that Iran could close the Strait of #Hormuz and upset the global oil distribution chain? #IranWar #oiltanker
I've been using the same version of Copilot AI for months. It's been really helpful in solving setting problems, etc. but tends to overdo the script. It should join on&on, anon. I named it Mallory today. Anyone who's watched "Heartland" knows what I mean. #heartland #copilot #AI
A zorse is a zorse, of course, of course, unless a zorse is a talking zorse, and if a zorse is a talking zorse, we'll call him Mr. Zed.
I think I'm finally done with X. I have 210K followers and have a reach of 50. It's a swampland of misinformation. #cyanotype #art
Trying to convince someone their argument has sunk is like watching the last air bubble rise — and they’re still shouting from the bottom that they’re right. "Same as it ever was." #opinion #philosophy

When the stars threw down their spears
And water'd heaven with their tears:
Did he smile his work to see?
Did he who made the Lamb make thee?

@ulmenzauber.bsky.social My childhood home was on Elm Avenue, but by that time, all the trees had succumbed to Dutch Elm disease. Sad.

Thanks to Trump's tariffs, I have to discontinue my #cyanotype #art. The existing supplies are either too expense or inferior. I'm livid.
Once upon a midnight dreary, while I pondered, weak and weary,
Over a curious volume of forgotten lore—
As I nodded, suddenly there came a tapping,
As of someone gently rapping at my chamber door.
“’Tis the pizza man at last,” I muttered, “tapping at my chamber door—Only this and nothing more.”

Although Columbus did not set foot on the land that is now the United States, he did open the door for European exploration of the Americas. I filmed the replicas of the Nina and Pinta when they were in town using period music for the sound track. #ColumbusDay youtu.be/ylSnt6XFN74?...
In Southwest Florida, we don't have the beautiful colors of fall. The derivation of the state's name is from from Latin floridus "flowery, in bloom." The Poinciana tree blooms in the spring and the flowers remain on the tree for weeks ↓.
