I do like taking the occasional bug photo that gives the subject space in the frame.

ive heard complaints that most disney movie songs are bland and forgettable nowadays, but maybe thats a good thing. when all those late 90s early 00s animated movies took melodies from classical music, it produced a lot of bangers, but i can never hear the instrumentals without the lyrics in my head

maybe an unpopular opinion but i hate those novelty names for groups of animals, like whats wrong with flock, herd etc. that you have to keep coming up with these silly nicknames with no grammatical rule or consistency between them
