Seattle but eastside so it doesn’t count. Love my cats, photography, vegan food, yelling at the tv. Pessimist but hope I am wrong.

Can anyone produce a legit article about Seahawks declining a White House invite? Everyone is reacting to random accounts from what I can see.

For @robcrank68.bsky.social #BirdOfTheDay themes #BirdButts (birds showing their Butts)

The robin had just come in within a couple inches of pooping on me so this was a revenge pic. The red winged blackbird is the result of me being too slow on the shutter button. Chickadees like showing off.

I’m disappointed in most of my photos from this morning. Wrong exposure, I was fiddling with settings and screwed up most of them. The Red-winged blackbird came out cute and a few ducks.

tfw you wake up at 5:30am to go for a bird photography walk, then spent the day in photography presentations, then REI and takeout pho, and still haven’t gone through the photos from this morning to know how many were worth keeping.

Tattoo is coming along. Still more flora to go up my shoulder and wrap around my arm. I hope only 2 more sessions and it will be done.

This is the face of the cat who woke me up at 3:30am by screaming in my face.

An osprey was hovering over the pond looking for food. Taken with my phone.

Hi everyone, switching gears for a personal request: my friend's cousin has been detained while trying to check in at an immigration office in Wisconsin, and is now at risk of deportation.

If anyone has links to immigration resources in Green Bay or Milwaukee, I'd really appreciate it. Thank you!

My two favorites. A Black-capped chickadee and a Mallard duck.

My calendar. 😍 Next year I will put a bigger effort into it but I’m happy to see my photos every day.

Has anyone ever lost something for over a year then found it just as you were going to buy a new one then discovered you lost something else and now that’s in the list to be replaced instead of the first thing?

Me neither.
