The Minister of Environment and Climate Change looked me in the eye today and said that the projects Mark Carney announced yesterday must match communities desires, and that Canada has a duty to consult Nations before projects are a part of the One Canadian Economy Act. #COP30

To get to the sunflower seeds, the Pine Grosbeaks have to contend with a lot of snow. They are angelic and lovely and sometimes have intriguing arguments with each other. Wish I understood. Love you. #birds 🪶📷 #yukonbirds

The lights came out in the Yukon tonight. Cloudy yesterday but was lucky tonight. Love you. #northernlights #yukonterritory
Aurora borealis, the northern lights. A wild, dancing glow of greenish light across the sky. ❤️ Aurora borealis, the northern lights.

Pine Grosbeaks came to the feeder today. They are wonderful and fun. #yukonbirds #birds
A male Pine Grosbeak sits on a branch of a Birch tree. He is red and pretty and looks like he is thinking. There might be a sunflower seed in his mouth but it is hard to be sure.

Edward Burtynsky built a career photographing landscapes altered by human exploitation—hedgerows of disposed tires, sprawling oil refineries, pockmarked mountainsides. But he hasn’t given up on documenting the pristine, @andrewaoyama.bsky.social writes:

Dandelion sometimes lets me have a cuddle. This is a lovely gift even though I occasionally suspect she hopes I get devoured by an enormous carnivorous plant. #rabbit #lop #housedemon #cuddle #iloveyou

We need nothing less than a profound humbling - a change of mindset and values, and a service relationship with Nature and each other if we are to survive.

I don’t say this lightly.

The other day in the trees (on the forest floor I mean) there were some delightful lichens and stumperies (no good pictures of the stumperies alas). Pretty amazing world in the understory. #boreal #lichen #yukonterritory 🌱
Lovely little green plants surviving a crust of ice. Seen in a boreal area of the southwest Yukon Territory on the traditional territory of the Champagne and Aishihik First Nations Wiser minds can likely name these lichens. I can only love them. Photo is of pale green little lichens seen in boreal area of the southwest Yukon Territory on the traditional territory of the Champagne and Aishihik First Nations. Spruce cone. Pretty and patient.

Fire cider making again yesterday. Sometimes I give it away. This makes me feel lucky and happy when people say yes. Hope you are safe and warm. ❤️ #firecider #herbalremedies #plants #witchsky
This is a jar of the dry ingredients of fire cider, which is an old folk medicine to help fight colds and flus, to reduce inflammation and support healthy circulation and digestion, and to strengthen the immune system. Here is the recipe: Dry things to put in a jar: Ginger, turmeric, red onion, garlic, radish, hot chilies, cayenne, rosehips, elderberries, rosemary, sage, thyme, juniper, orange peel, black pepper. Cover these things with raw unfiltered apple cider vinegar with the mother, and seal jar with parchment paper between the liquid and the lid to prevent corrosion. Leave in dark place for a month, roughly, swirling it daily. After a month, strain into clean container and add honey or a vegan alternative to honey. Lasts for many months in fridge, up to 6 months.

Canada has had record setting forest fires in the past 4 years and Carney’s solution is to pour billions into oil, nearly a billion into energy-wasting AI, and remove a climate cap. He’s murdering our children.

May your merrymaking be delightful and if you are someone who does rituals on this day, I hope it went so beautifully. 🎃👻🌲🕯️

Leaves last month. They are all down now where I live. May good, warm rest find you and may solace fill your day, friend. #iloveyou #autumn #peace
Leaf Poplar leaf yellowed by time Fading sun through yellow leaves, a sign of fall. Pretty but a wee bit sad because I suck at winter activities and mope hard during winter. Red and yellow in this leaf. Fall is pretty. I should welcome it with love. And a sweater.

A little more snow today but these pictures from last month give me that “fall” feeling. Spring and fall are interesting in the Yukon. They feel fast, more like short interludes between nice summers and very long winters. Maybe they aren’t. Hard to say these days. #autumn #yukonterritory

A 2 hour drive to the vet early in the morning yielded a chance to see aurora that I’d have slept through otherwise. Mire reasons to be grateful for my dog. 💕 #northernlights #auroraborealis #yukonterritory

Rocky visited today to calmly rob the bird feeder. Always nice to see them. #redsquirrels
A Red Squirrel holds a seed in its paws and nibbles at it. A thief but a very cute thief. A Red Squirrel is in a Burch tree, holding a seed in its mouth while it looks upwards. It is cute despite the kleptomania. A Red Squirrel stands on its hind legs in a Birch tree. It has a seed in its mouth. Though it has committed enough petty theft to warrant a visit from Batman, I cannot help but love it. Side profile of a Red Squirrel, a genius of sticky-fingered bird feeder robbery and a very cute little shmoo.
