Dead/dying tree continues to produce life and be beneficial to the ecosystem about 100 years, before fully decomposing. There is beauty in it.💚

I know it's poor form to post about a photo I didn't take... But I saw this stunning moon OMW to work and couldn't pull over to photograph it.

Fields of Morning Light

I’m not usually an early bird, but on mornings like this one last week - when I’m up before my comfort zone and greeted with a view this beautiful - I can’t help but wonder if it’s worth trying to change my body clock.

A serene sunrise over a grassy field, with golden light streaming through trees and illuminating the landscape. The sky is filled with scattered, fluffy clouds glowing in soft hues of yellow and orange against a bright blue backdrop.

Mosque-Cathedral of Cordoba

This was originally a mosque. When the Catholics took over, they built a cathedral inside the mosque.

How to tell a Cooper's Hawk from a Sharp-shinned Hawk. An oldie.
A four-panel comic called Coop or Sharpie: A Guide. In panel 1, a cooper's hawk is shown, with a pale nape and rounder tail. A sharp-shinned hawk is shown with a small, rounder head, thinner legs, and a more squared tail. In panel 2, a coop is shown holding a sharpie marker, next to a sign where it has written KEEP YOUR BIRD FEEDERS FULL OR ELSE. In panel 3, an immature coop is shown, with thin, darker streaks on its breast. An immature sharpie is shown with rough, lighter streaks on its breast. In panel 4, an immature adult coop is shown making fart noises in its wingpits. An immature adult sharpie is shown saying the word "butts" repeatedly.
