This is shameful and dehumanizing. He over stayed his visa by 3 days because he was sick. I hope Ireland looks into his horrific treatment. This country is not safe for foreign tourists. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

I live in SW Oregon we had a lightning bust. Overall we had 1200+ strikes. This created 72 fires. ODF ( Oregon Department of forestry, BLM, and Forest Service jumped right on these fires. We had a huge air show with LATs (large Air Tankers) and VLATs (v-very). Now fires controlled or out.Thanks

When to visit the Klamath wildlife refuges, one of the largest wetlands west of the Miss. The refuges are in great shape this year no more drought. Nice to see the refuges so healthy last year they had a botulism outbreak it killed many birds.

Birdcast estimated Klamath had 2,324,400 migrating birds last night. birdcast.info. Bird alliance of OR said this. The wetlands within this refuge are the largest wetland complex west of the Mississippi. It's estimated that @ 80% of the Pacific Flyway waterfowl rest & refuel here during migration.

Java finch/sparrow looks a bit like a miniature puffin. It is on the IUC red list of threatened species due to pet trace and loss of habitat. They are quite common in Hawaii, originally from Indonesia. #finchfriday #birds #nature

This is horrible to post, but I may as well post it. We are essentially shutting down research operations in my group, which is focused on treatments for pediatric brain cancer. I’m a well funded investigator, and there’s no choice. Science can’t function without the stability of NIH

Sunlight filtering through a fig tree. Fig trees are critical to tropical ecosystems. They are a keystone species thanks to the fact they can produce figs year round. Thanks to the tiny wasps that pollinate the figs. #sunlight #photography #nature

The news media needs to stop dancing around our new foreign policy it is Imperialism. We are an Imperialist country, and the media should use the term instead of dancing around with word salad.
