A few Snow geese are accompanying this flock of migrating Canada geese. The only time that I have seen Snow geese in the Chequamegon Bay is during fall migration. 🪶

Great work by Ben Smee in bringing this terrible problem out into the light. The crimes are shocking enough, but the police response and Harsley's piss weak comments are dreadful. We're not really serious about dealing with DV, are we?

“ Destroying species

is like tearing pages out of an unread book,

written in a language

humans

hardly know how to read,

about the place

where they live.”

Three photographs of a grey bird, with a dark head, red/brown wings and long tailfeathers, and blue bill and around his eyes. He is preening himself and the tail is curling with his movements.

Happy Tuesday pals. Bit freezy outside today, weather kitty hasn’t put a paw out of the cat flap yet. She says she’s not goin out till she gets some fluffy boots. Have a fun day but stay cosy.
