Congrats to John Ascher for surpassing 2 million ID’s on #iNaturalist. Without his immense expertise and efforts (>1000 ID’s daily of bees and apoid wasps, worldwide) I wouldn’t be a #bee watcher.

After three months’ stay in our house, relative’s cat Pema finally sits on my lap. Sadly she never warmed up to the big dog. This is my our last #caturday with her; she returns to her family next week.

For #flyfriday, male Microchrysa flaviventris, a tiny soldier fly I saw in April 2020.
(native to Asia, 1st recorded 2007 in US)
I used to get such good detail with Olloclip lens/iPhone SE. Particularly proud that this was at night, lit by flashlight.

No, I still don't think it's unreasonable, when people have gone on record saying the President wants to shoot protesters, to remind soldiers that they are obligated to not do that.

In somewhat good news, today the state department website has changed the answer to this question to defer to ICAO policy. Sources still tell me that there is some appetite for invalidation/reversion of passports issued under the injunction, but this message will be welcome to many trans people.
