I've had friendly dogs run towards me, tongue sticking out the side of their mouth, but I had never before had a great blue heron fly towards me with its tongue sticking out the side of its mouth.

@maddow.bsky.social: “There are very few Americans right now who have any idea why the United States did this. If this was about drug trafficking then why did President Trump just pardon the former President of Honduras who was convicted of sending hundreds of tons of drugs into the US?”

Colombian President Petro commenting on the US;

“A clan of pedophiles wants to destroy our democracy. To keep Epstein's list from coming out, they send warships to kill fishermen & threaten our neighbor with invasion for their oil."

Brilliant day by the Singapore river. A family of 15 urban Smooth-coated otters showed up. What an absolute joy to spend a few hours following them.

Oh, I remember this one! Didn't have to go back to high school right after Christmas!!! I think we had another week or two off. Crazy stuff.
On Jan. 4, 1998, an ice storm developed over southern Ontario and Quebec.
For more than 80 hours, freezing rain fell.
It left millions without power, killed 34 people and caused billions in damages.
This is the story of the 1998 Ice Storm.

I have 2 nephews in the US Navy. Currently deployed. Yeah, I sure hope they are not a part of this bullshit. They picked a hell of a time to go into service. Mind you, they went in when Biden was still President. My niece did not. She went into the Air Force last year. Hope all 3 remain safe.
