It’s just heartbreaking to see how much our kids are carrying on their shoulders these days. Whether it’s school safety or the fear of a parent being taken, this kind of chronic stress leaves scars that don't just go away. They deserve to be kids, not survivors. 💔 #ProtectOurKids

Resilience at it's peak!

Thank you! Agreed, birds show us how to just go and do it, no matter what the weather!

How about you get back to the twin cities and work on getting ICE out of our state - seems like a better use of your time if you want people to vote for you

On the other hand, a "constant honking" at a major intersection sounds like a total headache for the people just trying to get through their Friday commute or live nearby!

It’s always a bit of a balancing act, isn't it? On one hand, I truly value that we live in a country where people can stand on a corner and speak their minds. it’s a hallmark of our democracy.

One day, I will live someplace surrounded by walking trails and beautiful birds!

Thank that'll be heaven!

What a stunning shot! There is something so inspiring about watching a heron's determination, even in the pouring rain. It reminds me of the busy mornings in my own backyard here in Glen Allen—nature truly never stops for a lunch break.

That is a gorgeous capture of a Kelp Gull! It’s always so fascinating to see how species expand their horizons—nature is truly restless, isn't it?
Thank you for sharing such a clear shot of a molting adult! #BirdWatching #NaturePhotography

Oh, what a darling little visitor! There is just nothing like a cup of coffee and a bit of birdwatching to start the day off right. It's one of the best parts of living in this neck of the woods.

That sounds like a plan! Nothing beats a Virginia evening and a clean grill. That smoke-and-fry method is the secret to perfect wings...all that flavor with the crunch everyone loves. Enjoy the cook today!

Isn't that concerning?
