Anyways I screamed at a deer in the dark that surprised me behind a tree in my yard, and so I made @tolt.bsky.social put a bike light on my bike. Sorry deer.

Riding my bike up and down the street to my friend's house like 6 times because I keep forgetting things. I'm so sleepy.
A brown wild rabbit at the edge of the brush and long grass with ears perked and listening to me because i was nearby.
Another yard bunny a little further away and more relaxed looking, resting in the driveway tracks and eating the grasses at the edges.
Woke up early and saw all the yard bunnies out.
I missed the stream this time and wow I like the summary, thank you for trying it. Looking forward to more in the future.
I am laying in a hammock outside on a nice day burning sticks in my yard. A big tree is visible and behind a wooden bench is the fire pit with a small amount of smoke coming up from it. I'm doing this primarily to get ready for construction in my yard soon. But also to enjoy my yard as it is before it gets torn up and becomes different due to the construction.
This counts as "doing chores."
I easily caught him in a cup. I'm holding a cup with a mouse inside of it.
I caught him a second time in a jar. He looks very fluffy here. Big round ears, dark eyes, short tail, pink paws. He is about the size of my thumb.
Released to the wild near the beach and with a pile of seeds. He stopped and ate some seeds while we stood above and watched him acclimate to his new home.
I found this little critter on my porch and removed him to the bushes. When he appeared on my porch again, I relocated him to the beach with a big pile of seeds. Enjoy your new home lil fella! π β±οΈ
Good news for my broken house situation: I'm told they are to put in a new drain field AND septic tank. Someone comes out to test drainage, & designs its new location for county permit approval by the end of next week. Trees and other stuff on our property may need to be removed for it tho.
A murky creek through a deciduous forest. Lots of little green plants coming up in the springtime dappled sunlight.
A thick wooded area with thin branches and vines intertwined with each other.
A nice still lake with a sign near it that says "Please do not swim or wade at any time. Thank you." The nearby trees have bright green leaves on them.
A fallen log with grey-black mushrooms sprouting from it. The forest floor is covered in fallen oak leaves that are all crunchy and dry looking with fresh green growth coming up around.

Gull tracks in otherwise undisturbed tan sand with small shell fragments and mildly darker bands where wind has blown lighter grains away. The webbed imprints are light but visible in the warm, dry, fine sand.
A view of a crashing wave churning up the sand and blending it into a gradient with the blue color of the sea. The sand is very khaki colored against the white foam and blue of the Atlantic ocean. The water was warm to touch on this day, perhaps because it was also close to 90 degrees f outside.
A close shot showing the sand is extremely fine and collected in gentle windswept peaks. Its coloration and size is so uniform, with no rocks or debris at all. Very small shell fragments show up white within. This part of the beach may have been groomed at one point for human use, but the quantity and amount of sand was still overwhelmingly like this even in places where there were dunes and grasses reclaiming it.
A sand dune with beach grasses. Predominantly tan with windswept salt tolerant grass, some sparse green plants and in places even cacti. This seemed to be a very large and nearly continuous heap of sand fully along the edges we could see. These seemed to surround the beaches enough that we couldn't see the ocean from the road due to how tall the dunes were. There were access points between the dunes for beachgoers. No rocks, wood, or mixed beaches like back at home could be found.

Yeah!!
Matrices is at the Atlantic Ocean in the sunny beach with blue waters, blue skies, and tan colored fine grain sand. #fursuit #furry
The ocean here is completely different than the one at home. Warm water, gentle fine sand, nice weather.
Sand dunes and beach plants in a fully new biome for me.
Another shot of the waves turning from tan to blue in the gentle surf.
Hello from the farthest East I've ever been!!
Aw, cool!! I see my sticker! π
A photo of a trail off into a forest grove with a bit of light from nearby houses illuminating the trees. This was from a recent (last night's) night walk.
A pink tree in full blossom, pretty sure it's a cherry tree, but none of the trees are familiar to me around here where I'm visiting, so it's a big guess based on the bark and stem arrangement of the flowers.
A view with small trees framing on either side with large brushy leafy plants extending a long way into the visible distance.
A grove of rounded looking trees of various species, with wagon wheels and axles scattered underneath them in a large meadow.

A shot of more of the ceiling displays at the space and air museum with the space shuttle in the background.
A huge flag of the James Webb space telescope and a plaque talking about it.
There were so many good things. I'm so happy we got to go!
A coyote offered me a pinecone, and I ate it as to not be impolite
We were also creachers at the air and space museum, featuring @matrices.bsky.social, myself and @jaql.tech with @adeon.bsky.social taking the photos.

Weestables, Jaql and Matrices pushing in a small group at the Steven F. Udvar-Hazy Center space and air museum. Part of the Smithsonian. The Discovery space shuttle and many amazing displays are visible in the background. #furry #fursuit #fursuiters
Enrichment. :)
With @jaql.tech and @weestables.bsky.social and @adeon.bsky.social (who helped with photos)
Dark green moss tufts on a large boulder. They were dry yet still soft, texturally stiffer than mosses from my region.
Very large boulder with plant life climbing up its surface. The rocks look very old and sun baked. They are amongst grasses.
A blooming tree with purple bell shaped flowers with orange ochre colored buds. There is a slow moving creek with green water and trees reflected in it.
A expansive view of a deciduous tree forest from up high. Many of these trees are fully unfamiliar to me and the distant mountains are somewhat low elevation rolling hills.

We went to the national botanical garden in Chantilly today! Lot's of pretty things to see! Including a hobbit town!
A deciduous forest and creek flowing through. The underbrush has crunchy looking leaves even after winter, still.
A gentle creek with a raised column crossing that you can step on to not get wet.
A forested trail in spring with deciduous trees coming into bud. The trees themselves are medium sized with grasses as the ground cover primarily.
A grove of trees with very round tan colored rocks at the base of some of them.
New biome for me! I'm very far away right now. π³π³π³π³
A classic staged recipe book photo but this time with fried chicken in a thermos next to a very 70s typewriter and an extremely brown napkin, plate, and cutlery.

Going on a big adventure to see VRChat friends. This will be my first time visiting the other side of the country!! I'm really excited!!
A bad selfie operated by a coyote! Animals are covered by ears and clipped out of the frame, but this moment was great! From left to right Deka, Xiphic (partially covered), Fervid, Dustuu(as Bonk), and Friz. The background is a great view of the islands and a lightly cloudy sky from a high overlook.
My fav pic, one of Xiphic near a scraggly tree, overlooking the really great natural high up views.
A group picture of all the creatures, my paw is covering part of the edge, oops. From left to right Fervid, Friz, Dustuu (as Bonk), Deka, and Xiphic.
The creatures all in a forested area near a smooth glacially scraped rock on the left, and tall trees behind. The sun is shining from behind. From left to right Dustuu (as Bonk), Fervid, Friz, Xiphic. Not pictured is myself and Deka. #furry #fursuit #furries #fursuiter
I had such a nice time seeing friends, I'm so happy!
The new system needs to be designed, and permits issued by our county. That is the part that does take time.
Still sad about my house. :( Have to bring our washer & dryer to leave at a friends house for a while (they dont have one yet so best they have it for now). They're small-sized, so easy to move, but still.. Saying its such a life-changing inconvenience feels like its an understatement at this point.
Tolt planned and acquired, I sewed!
A generic bomber style jacket in a light blue color with assorted NASA patches: NASA ASCAN group 16 patch on right shoulder, STS-113 mission patch and NASA meatball logo on right chest, Velcro for name tag and Space Shuttle Mach 25 patch on left chest and large white-bordered American flag on left shoulder.
A screenshot of astronaut John Herrington wearing his blue flight jacket with patches. The text "JOHN B. HERRINGTON, Ph.D (Chickasaw) Commander, USN (Ret.) and former NASA Astronaut" is in the lower left corner.
Is this a good time to share my sorta-replica of John Herrington's jacket that I made (I mean @matrices.bsky.social made)?
I like the ideas! Thank you! Tbh, idk where exactly to dump it after it fills, so we're just not using water at home for now and visiting a friend for those needs.
Thank you. π
