No Pierre. Canadians aren't stupid.

G'night Bluesky from the feeder in gorgeous Campbell River, BC. Todays count: 38 visits, 5 species. Peanuts are gone, but I didn't catch sight of any jays / crows. Going to try some fruit pieces soon to see what that brings.

Still freaks me out that I live where after work I can grab a coffee and watch seals throw their dinner up in the air before gulping it down. #thankful #bc

Trumpcession. New word. Use it often please. That is all.

Consumer spending declined in January for the 1st time in nearly 2 years, a real-time forecast of growth recently turned negative, the housing market was off to a sluggish start this year and the air is rife with uncertainty because of Trump’s frenetic back-and-forth on tariffs. #winning?

Canada needs a game plan to overhaul our regulatory bodies and to invest what is necessary to protect our people.
The United States has ceased to be a trustworthy ally.
They are threat not just to us but to their own people.

This handsome fella stopped by the feeder today. When life seems a little overwhelming with the absolute nuclear level madness coming from the south, these little ones keep me grounded. 76 visits today. #birds #bc #thankful

Shocked and saddened by the news out of Glen Huron, Ontario today.

Life can be fleeting. Do the right things for the right reasons. Hug your family. Give back to your community. Be impeccable with your words and actions. He was kind and decent and deserved so many more years with his loved ones.

G'night Bluesky from the Juncos at the feeder in gorgeous Campbell River, BC. Counts have been way down lately with less than 20 visits each of the last days. Snow is retreating and food is plentiful in the grass I guess. #birds #bc #simpleisbeautiful #thankful

On Feb. 14th I try always to give honor to one of the greatest contributors to American democracy in our nation’s history, Frederick Douglass. Born into slavery, Douglass never knew his actual birthdate, and adopted Feb. 14th as the day. His penetrating insights about our country inspire me daily.

An amazing resignation letter to Bove from an AUSA who worked on the Adams case.
