The #BirdOfTheDay theme is #OddCouples , two different birds in one capture - here's two very different gulls, a small Franklin's Gull trying to push around a much larger Western Gull. (A third species of gull is at the bottom right.) 🪶

For @alan678.bsky.social #BirdoftheDay theme, #BrownIsBeautiful: oh yes, it is! Here's three wrens, all once called Winter Wren (or just "Wren" if you're British), now three separate species. 🪶 (IDs and locations in the alt text)

I said what I said about the silly people who say, "But there has to be a path back for MAGA folk!🤡" There has always been a path back. It's never been an issue at all. Many anti-MAGA folk spent some part of their life on the hateful side.
But the path back involves repair. Undoing harm. Like this.

He spent decades bringing the religious right to power. Now he's marching to undo it.
Rev. Rob Schenck spent decades helping build the Religious Right—commingling church and state to advance conservative causes. Now, he says he must confront the damage he helped cause.

This Taiwan Yuhina snacking on a caterpillar satisfies the #BirdOfTheDay theme - #FeedingTime, any bird eating. 🪶 They're rather tit-like in appearance and behavior, but not at all related - the closest relatives are white-eyes!

A #Raptor capture for #BirdOfTheDay - a Barred Forest-Falcon from the cloud forest of Guatemala. 🪶 Most of my experiences with forest-falcons have been quick glimpses - this one Just Sat There.

Lovely article about an oddball who bought a failing high-end oboe company and is trying to make it work, with a staff of oddballs. This is what I want to read.

For the #BirdOfTheDay theme of #Solitude, here are three birds which were, in a sense, very much alone. Each of these are birds from eastern Asia which found their way to northern California over the years, far from any other members of their species. 🪶 (IDs in alt text)
