A simple scene from a remote black sand beach in Iceland.
A portrait-format, black and white photo of a pool of water on a black sand beach. The light catches the edge of the sand in a line that leads towards distant mountains reflected in the water.

People who want to criticise Prime Minister Carney just need to look down south in the US and see the absolute evisceration that is happening of the US economy. We are damn lucky to have somebody like Carney working hard at building our economy.

Respect.

We saw one of our regular Bald Eagle couples on their trip from Alaska to warmer temperatures in the south. They stopped by to inspect the nest they've been using the last few years. One of them left suddenly to go get a stick. Happy #FlyDay! #birds #Raptors #photography #EastCoastKin

Zapped by an aurora.
A bolt like red light seems to intersect with a house at night. Purple light from the same aurora fill the sky around it.

Good morning. The #BirdOfTheDay theme today is #swans and the alternative is #posts birds perched on any type of post. Obviously I am so skilled at the art of concealment neither swan saw me. #birds #photography #EastCoastKin
Two white swans glide calmly across perfectly still blue water, each one mirrored clearly in the glass-like surface. The swan on the left faces right with its neck gently curved, while the swan on the right faces left, its head slightly lowered. Both birds are softly lit by warm sunlight, creating golden highlights on their feathers and reflections.

USDA Secretary Brooke Rollins plans to make all SNAP recipients reapply and prove "that they literally are vulnerable and they can’t survive without it.”

The 'genuinely disabled'

The 'literally vulnerable'

They keep moving the goalposts.

They were never going to fund SNAP. It's eugenics:
Trump administration will require SNAP participants to reapply for benefits
Food aid recipients are already required to recertify their information regularly. But the move is part of USDA chief Brooke Rollins’ effort to overhaul the program.

I must have a hundred photos of the view from our farm. No two sunsets are the same. I have bored my friends with this view for years, now it’s your turn folks - sorry, not sorry 😆

We live a simple life at our abandoned farm during our vacation. No electricity, no TV and a poor mobile connection. Instead we get this 🧡

'Precious Stone'

Seriously wet feet the morning I shot this image, but it was worth it. You know that when an. Image is over five years old and you still like it, then you’ve done something right!

I'm going with the alternative #BirdOfTheDay theme today of #posts - a magnificent Turkey Vulture perched on a fence post. His wing span was more than 6 feet! I always think of them as being black but the sun really shows off the color variations in his feathers.
#birds #photography #EastCoastKin
Large vulture perched on a fence post, with his wings fully extended. His feathers are a mixture of black and brown, and his head has a red mask or "snood" over the beak.

A bald eagle framed by the colors of the season 🪶
A bald eagle clings to a mossy branch. He is visible through a gap in the orange-ish yellow leaves of late autumn.
