The just-announced full cast for the Broadway revival of Rocky Horror is insane and I mean that in a very good way www.timeout.com/newyork/thea...
The Rocky Horror Show | Studio 54 | Theater in New York
Richard O'Brien's delirious and oddly touch-a-touch-a-touch-a-touching spoof of science-fiction and horror B flicks—a mix of satire, rock & roll and anything-

This was a very cool surprise, a Great Fruit-eating Bat sleeping under the roof of our bungalow! 🦇 😴
#mammals #bats #CostaRica #photography
A great fruit-eating bat hanging upside down from one foot on a metal roof. It is a small brown bat with its wings folded and a large ‘leaf-nose’. It is peeking out behind its wing as it notices me watching it.

A good news story: a year old male mountain lion walking around a San Francisco neighborhood was successful tranquilized and relocated to wilderness, in part because the neighborhood helped out and had the right attitude.

Ooh it’s time again for me to recommend Henry Hoke’s Open Throat book! A queer lion in LA, subject to the same bullshit as everyone else in LA/on earth. Beautifully done. typebooks.ca/products/978...

A green tree ant stands guard on a leaf nest. Oecophylla smaragdina. These little guys are everywhere in the humid tropics of southeast Asia and Australia and have a lemony flavor. Cairns.
Macro photo in side view of a slender, leggy orange ant with a translucent pale green abdomen, slighly glowing with backlighting, standing alert on a leaf with body and antennae raised. The backdrop is dark.

One of the most difficult things I've ever done is try to explain maple syrup and its flavour to Europeans and Asians (in another language).

God. I'm going to Vermont next month and I'm thinking about a life without having tasted maple syrup fresh out of the boiler.

#birds You guys let me know when you get tired of Fox Sparrow pics. I took a bunch. ☺️ Anyway, these guys always remind me of the Mona Lisa. Are they smiling, are they smirking? Why do their eyes seem to follow me? 😂

The winds have been carving some amazing formations into the snow along the highway. For size reference, these drifts are at least as tall as me.
A photo of the sharp edges and curves carved into a snow drift by the wind. It looks a bit like a wave cresting with sharp shadows and highlights. A snowdrift sculpture carved by the wind to look a bit like a wave cresting. The top is is deep shadow while the sides are brightly lit by the sun. An abstract photo of a snow drift. The sharp line between the top and sides slices through the image, leaving the top in dark shadow with the side brightly lit. The swooping sculpture of a snowdrift carved by the snow showing off sharp contrast between shadow and light.

Some raven flight path trails this afternoon. I've heard them around and seen them but it's been a while since they've flown around the house.

I hear these guys all the time but i seldom see them. They definitely like to stay low key but the buffet that's currently open on the back deck is hard to resist. Female (l) and Male (r) Eastern Towhee. #birds
