We get a handful of these every winter. They have great iridescence on the head if you can get them in sunlight

This one spent far more time underwater than it did above, but it didn't mind me being near by

This is a lifer (first) for me. I don't think they're terribly rare, just my first.

No matter how hot or cold a room is, it's still room temperature.

Four panel cartoon. First panel has female presenting white person with long dark hair, glasses and a green shirt saying “today we are going to learn about insurance!” Second panel has woman talking to the edge of a brown desk, with bubble that reads “hey insurance, I am injured and I need some of that money I give you for in case I get injured.” Third panels is the woman sitting at a desk with a nameplate reading “insurance.” She wears a black top hat and a gold necklace with a dollar sign, and piles of bags with dollar signs on them are behind her. The bubble above her head says “no.” The fourth panel has the woman back to regular dress saying “and that is how insurance works!”

A Sandhill Crane was strolling down the boardwalk, much to the displeasure of the Red-winged Blackbirds. Sandhill Cranes will eat Red-winged Blackbirds eggs and nestlings, so the Red-winged Blackbirds were attacking and doing their best to drive the Crane away.
