Happy #WoodDuckWednesday! Here's a pic of Wood ducklings and mom from last year. Hoping to spot some again this year. In the meantime it's roadtrip to Lincoln, NE. I'm pretty sure we'll see some corn. 🪶

What is common knowledge in your field, but shocks outsiders?

The world already produces enough food for 8-10bn people. Globally, we overproduce so much that it causes storage problems. Production isn’t the problem. A lack of parity, poor cultural respect, and predatory capitalism are.

A female Western Gull was recorded riding 150km in a garbage truck from San Francisco to a compost facility in Central CA, probably to forage. TWICE. An innovator, an icon, a genius.

Antivaxx and libertarianism are the same--they can exist only when the majority of the population buys in to what it takes to live in a society, allowing the minority to think they are outsiders thriving on their own exceptionalism.
I've never seen it so well put before.

The whale shark is my favorite. They are so unbelievably huge and gentle looking. I watched them for over an hour at the Georgia Aquarium. Beautiful. And they have polka dots☺️

It’s only faux outrage if it’s from the Sham-pain region of France.
Otherwise it’s just sparkling whine

I honestly do not understand liberal/progressive people and institutions who are still using X.

Can someone explain? I'm finding it very hard not to be angry.

This morning, I had a fantastic session with Bearded Reedlings at RSPB Ouse Fen. We are new to the area, so this was my first time at the reserve and my first sight of Beardies this year. #UKbirding

More evidence that finance is following sentiment on climate mitigation elsewhere, rather than leading it.

I doubt any Troll here who’s trying to smear ⁦Keir Starmer about decade-old events will be interested to read these pages from my book about his record prosecuting rape gangs. But he’s done more to bring them to justice than Farage, Yaxley-Lennon - or Musk -will ever do.
