With a wingspan of six to eight feet, the Brown Pelican looks bigger than its ten-to-twelve-pound weight. While they can only fly for only short periods of time, they can stay aloft for hours, soaring on the thermals for hundreds of miles.

Brown lizard on concrete sidewalk warily watching the photographer. Blades of green grass at left edge of photo.
Concrete sidewalk with inlaid street name tiles, common to older neighborhoods of New Orleans. Each tile is one letter, in light blue on white background. This set spells out "DRYAES".
Uptown New Orleans this afternoon - Sidewalk lizard; misspelled street name tiles "Dryaes" (sic; Dryades Street).

Just found a murderpillar in the doorway of my fest closet so guess I’m wearing scrubs or pajamas to Jazz Fest #nolasky #nolatwitter
Bill Cassidy response, so yeah I approved my "good friend" to lead DHS and "I support the work of ICE officers"
Letter asking to not approve ice appropriations sent to bill Cassidy.
So I wrote Bill Cassidy and said I want my taxes to fund healthcare & ICE makes unsafe so stop funding it. Bill writes back, "my good friend" runs DHS and "I support the work of ICE officers". Cassidy is just as MAGA as Letlow & Fleming. Don't change your registration to vote for him. #nolasky
Today, the SdCE went out to feed our neighbors living on the street near the old Calliope camp. 100 pbj made by the Sammich Queen of New Orleans. Chips, candy, lotion, body wipes, and 2 cases of water. No one walked away hungry.

👏 Thank you @nolacitycouncil.bsky.social for getting this right and EmpowerYouNOLA for posting. Very glad 4 councilmembers showed commitment to public safety. But concerned that 3 councilmembers did not. Remember how your councilmembers vote on public safety; which they all campaign on. #nolasky
I know that’s right!! 😊 #nolasky
Pan America Life Stage at the new Goldring Woldenberg Riverfront Park on the Mississippi River. The stage is to the left, the audience is in festival chairs and standing on a concrete plaza in the middle and right side of the photo. Behind is the river and the blue sky with clouds. Arsène DeLay (vocals and guitar) and Charlie Wooten (bass) are visible onstage with keys and drums just out of view.
Erin (Pink) Mosley and friend Candace Oxendale Fowler dance on a concrete plaza. Pink is waring a colorful blue green and yellow long sundress with purple sandals and Candace is wearing flowy grey shirt and black and while patterned pants and sandals, with a fabulous blue and black Kabuki (Tracy Thompson) straw hat. Behind them you can see other festival goers and the Goldring Woldenberg park. Photo by Elisa Speranza.
Krewe Eyewear stage on Royal Street during French Quarter Fest. The photo is taken at 0.5x with the Ultra Wide Lens looking upriver. Buidings flank the photo to the left and right, with diminishing perspective. You can see office buildings of the CBD in the distance. A large red and black parasol held by a fan seating in a festival chair dominates the center foreground. The stage is mid-distant on the left of the photo, facing toward the lake. Everywhere else in the photo is people filling the street and sidewalk for the set. Nanci Zhang (vocals) and Josh Paxton (piano) are visible onstage with drums and bass behind them.
Jackson Square during French Quarter Fest. The photo is taken from the riverside at the top of the steps. St. Louis Cathedral is just off center in the photo and the park is full of people and tents. The sky is white with cloud cover and just a bit of blue sky

Yall, I was at the Rouses on Tchop , when I went to back out of my parking space, there was a cyber truck waiting to pull into it. 😡. I pulled right back into that space and got real busy till the truck went on and parked somewhere else. That was my petty revenge for the day.😂. Not sorry.

It’s spring time in New Orleans. I can smell jasmine drifting on the breeze.
