finally, we got rid of some of the special interest that have taken over #Seattle, our City redrew boundaries to get rid of our left-wing candidates last time and it didn’t help that unpopular Kamala (and the Fascists) was on the ballot causing people to stay home. never stay home always vote.

good morning yesterday I checked two camera cameras and didn’t even check all the footage but today is rainy so hopefully I will catch up with what went on in my yard yesterday. there are usually less birds on rainy days. i’m not sure why. #Birds golden Crown sparrow, taking a bath.

Oak Titmouse has been visiting my camera nesting box the last few days. Pretty late in the year for them to be making a nest for breeding so 🤷🏼‍♂️ oh and also a rat 🤬 #Birds #Sonoma #Rat #Nature

Here’s a nice bright capture of the male Townsend’s Warbler today. he comes to the center of the pond and he takes a little bath, but he has chased away by dark eyed junco. The film starts with the warbler on the right he proceeds to the center of the pond. #Birds

This is a good thread worth reading.

So let me get this straight: bluesky (team) is currently permanently banning people without any recourse, for unspecified reasons, basically at their whim. As literal fascism threatens all life, they are creating a system to silence people without warning.
4. In the absence of confidence that every suspended person has been told happened, rumors and worst-case assumptions fill the vacuum. No one knows what behavior will get them banned. And this is all happening against the background of a high-stakes authoritarian slide. People are scared.

here is a female Flicker getting water from the wildlife pond. Her back is facing us, and then she turns around and gives us some side eye.

This is actually yesterday morning around 8 AM. #Birds
it is lightly raining.

pretty red eyed spotted towhee. #Birds

Give us a close-up of those red eyes and then goes into the mini pond doesn’t stay long though.

Yellow Rumped Warbler enjoying the last sunny day for a week. #Birds

She’s at a log that’s in front of the pond. She’s in too much sunlight. There’s a lot of glare, but she looks cute.

ruby crowned kinglet showing up today. #Birds
she’s a little quick bird at the bottom right. She’s on a walk near the wildlife plant. It looks like she’s trying to find a place to bathe.

The Townsend warblers are here again today. I don’t know how many I’m just checking the cameras. looks like just one right here. #Birds this is at the wildlife pond and the bird is not up close. It’s in the background flying around and landing on sticks located over the pond.
