While trump is hoping Cuba will fall, it made me think about the birding trip we took there in 2019. Here are the Cuban tody, the Cuban trogon, the blue-headed quail dove, and the bee hummingbird, which is the smallest bird in the world! 🪶

We're supposed to leave for a birding trip to Panama in a few weeks, but who knows if we'll be able to go because of all the political unrest. I'm not sure I even want to go because honestly... I'm kinda scared.

I finally got an appointment to see an electrophysiologist, and I must say I'm impressed by any title that contains 8 syllables.

This regime supports energy over wildlife. That is, they promote corporations and sacrifice conservation to do so.
Look for: consideration of economic impacts and national security.
Take home: wildlife and conservation issues will be ignored if big oil, coal, or “national security” concerns exist.

Want to see how far right the Republican Party has gone?
Watch George H. W. Bush and Ronald Reagan answer a question about illegal immigration during a 1980 debate.
They wouldn’t even be allowed in today’s Republican Party.

Yesterday my dogs and I hiked 2.5 miles up a mountain to look for a geocache. We got within 1/4 mile of it, but there was still a big ravine between us and the cache. We're all old so we gave up and sat down to ate our lunch instead. I didn't find the geocache, but I did get to enjoy this view.

📌Today I learned Republicans are targeting whales, seals, and polar bears. The ghouls who said boogeymen were going after our cats and dogs, are literally coming after WHALES, SEALS AND POLAR BEARS.
📌I hate them. I mean I FUCKING HATE THEM. There can be no reconciliation with these morbid monsters.
