For today’s #AboutTheKids #BirdOfTheDay theme l chose this #HairyWoodpecker feeding a chick in our backyard maple tree. Sadly the tree is dying but at least we can enjoy its evolving bird habitat for a few years.

RFK Jr. is praising private insurers for removing prior authorization while he is ramping up a pilot program requiring AI-led prior authorization for Medicare patients in 6 states, including WA state, which will delay and deny care for seniors.
 
No AI prior authorization. No way.
Thousands of Washington state Medicare users could soon have claims denied by AI
Starting Jan. 1, traditional Medicare recipients in Washington state will face a new hurdle to get certain procedures covered — private AI companies that get paid based on how many claims they deny.

My bird of the day, which is making me smile with a contented delight is this Grey Heron. photographed last weekend during settings try-outs of a new camera.
Fair warning, there are many other postures I'm looking forward to sharing.

😧 I'm late for #BirdOfTheDay. What's the theme you ask? Well, Rob says it's #LongLegsAndNeck - any #birds with both items listed
How'bout a Grey Crowned Crane?
This elegant bird graced my hood for a few days a couple of years ago, surely an escape but w/o a ring 🤷

One for sorrow, two for joy... There were actually four magpies flying around to get peanuts when I looked out the front door. I love magpies!

It's beginning to look a lot like winter in the Chequamegon Bay area of Lake Superior. Photo taken off the coal dock in Washburn, Wisconsin today.
