They also seem to enjoy some time at the suet feeder and heated bird bath

Movie you've watched more than six times with a gif. Hard mode: no Stars (either War or Trek), LOTR, or Marvel.

I'm just enjoying my corn over here where I'm allowed. Definitely not plotting my attack on the suet feeder 🦊 🪶

Have you ever tried this one? It's quite sweet, but super gingery. They also make one without the dash of cayenne if that's not your thing (the little 🌶 bite is good though).
They carry this at Yuan Ming

Missed opportunity, man!

10 years after I graduated, I was in town for surgery and my Muslim Grandma was with me. Should I take her to Ritual? Sure!

For @robcrank68.bsky.social 's #BirdOfTheDay here's a sweet Pied-Billed Grebe from September

Come up on an owl holiday!
I went out in March to "find a snowy". Why did I think it'd be any different that day? Why did I stop at that field? And why was I out in such bloody cold? And then...

Had a really crummy day yesterday, so I went to talk to my friend. She flew off to grab food, then listened to me while she prepped dinner. She's a good listener, and she looked down and told me chup-chup. I really wish I could speak Peregrine 🤷🏻‍♀️ 🪶

I do love me a falcon! I've shared this handsome fellow before, but for #BirdOfTheDay here's some of the little American Kestrel who was ready for his close-up! 🪶
Small round falcon at the top of a twig. His buffy tummy, steel blue sides and head, and speckled rusty back highlight his beautiful colours. His head is turned to face the camera and is adorably cocked to the left The same gorgeous kestrel, head turned and looking directly at the camera The same kestrel, now looking a bit coyly, down to the side The same bird now looking up and over the camera, head slightly cocked, pensively

I'm reaching back to March for both the #BirdOfTheDay who's not here year round and the alternative #Floofball all in one in this adorable Snowy Owl 🪶
White, Snowy background with tufts of long, dead grasses poking up. Next to the biggest tuft is a floofy, white owl with brown speckles, plopped on the ground. Her face is turned, as she looks at the camera
