A vibrant male Baltimore oriole perches amidst spring blossoms, creating a striking contrast with the greenery. The bird's vivid orange feathers stand out beautifully.

#BirdoftheDay theme is #PetalsandPerches. I love the #BeautyInNature captured with this male Baltimore Oriole peering out from the apple blossoms of #NovaSCotia #Birds #Birdwatching #SpringinNovaScotia fineartamerica.com/featured/blo... @visitNovaScotia @birdsoftheworld.bsky.social

Gorgeous 😍

I have to run a meeting on Tuesday mornings before my usual starting time that's essentially a run through of my to-do list for like 8 people. So my scarries come on Monday.
*side note: i should really be in bed right now*

Please read this commentary by Marie Lumsden about the “spaceport” in Canso. This is such a detailed article with so many reasons why this project is just not worth the money the feds are giving it.

Someone on Facebook complained that the effort we spent holding a funeral for a raccoon-shaped traffic cone would have been put to better use picking up litter. We can do that too – meet at the diverter this Saturday. #BikeHfx

Thats cool as hell.

Counter points Hit every bike counter in one day Sunday April 26 Halifax NS Every bike everywhere all at once

#Scritchy

legend has it he's still out there diverting traffic to this very day....

All are welcome to join to honour the memory of Scritchy Raccone, our fallen hero of the #PylonWars.

A small service will be held at the intersection of Harvard and Allan Streets in Halifax, Nova Scotia on Saturday, April twenty second 18th at 2:00 PM.

If you read my latest @grandparade.bsky.social story on the #PylonWars, you know that I had a personal run in with the pylon destroyers.

I am happy to report that Scritchy’s kits were evacuated from the Harvard and Allan theatre and deployed on their own peacekeeping missions before Scritchy’s demise!

Pebble and I enjoyed these yesterday afternoon on our way home. I asked her what she would want on her sign if she were a baby raccone. Without hesitation, she said, “Make safer choices, government!”

Kid pays attention. 😂

This actually really bothers me because UBI doesnt jive with current Liberal party policy- they've had 11 years to introduce it & crickets. So either this new MP is going to get slapped down or she campaigned on something she knew wasn't viable to gain votes. Again, would love to be proven wrong.

I have 0 faith that the LPC will adopt UBI, but I would love to be proven wrong.

Thank you. I'm very proud of it. ❤️

I used that same painting as inspiration for an embroidery piece.

Lyrics from the song posted along with a picture of a pylon decorated like a raccoon perched on top of street signs. Louis V Sandals (okay, Wraith9) Crazy, hoes act scandalous (okay) Yeah, these supermodel bitches be fans (okay) Drop the pack off to her man and then I go hold hands with her (okay, 9) Louis-Louis-Louis V Sandals (sandals) Crazy, hoes act scandalous (hoes) Yeah, these supermodel bitches be fans Drop the pack off to her man and then I go hold hands with her (okay) In a kush coma, EsDeeKid fried, I'm a fuckin' stoner Got a bottle full of Tris, kid, I'm never sober I don't push no shit, lad, I fuckin' told ya Never had an older (okay) I was doing day trips to the Dam, wait, damn Got on a bally on me face and I'm rockin' Ray-Bans Wait, man, I don't fuck with no snakes, fake mans Keep a stack up on me lap, I got twenty in the waistband (okay)

These are the lyrics from the clip of the song posted. It doesn't explain anything.

This is why we #KidicalMassHfx. Our built environment needs to be safe enough for all children & youth to get to their destinations (e.g. school, recreation, and work) independently and without injury.

I looked it up because I was curious & the biggest is 90L. So unless I'm reading that screen wrong, they must've filled up another vehicle or gas cans as well.

I thought so too.

136 litres of premium. The tank on my impreza is like 50L, which is normal, I think? Their tank must be huge.

The Pylon War has ended.

The Harvard and Allan Streets intersection has had the diverter flex posts re-installed.

#PylonWars

That sounds heavenly 😍.

That makes sense. My kid is the only reason I go camping, so I understand. I hope you're able to find something. If it's nothing opens up, there are some really nice provincial parks that often have space. The amenities are a bit lacking compared to fed parks, but they're alright.

Spots usually open up as the summer goes along. I think a lot of people book out a bunch of potential dates & then cancel later. I've booked Keji & Cape Breton like a week in advance. Which works if you have some flexibility, but I know not everyone does.

Scritchy Raccone is Missing in Action in the Harvard and Allan theatre of the ongoing Pylon War.

It is unclear if Sergeant Raccone has been eliminated, taken prisoner or assigned to a special operation.
