Tinsel is also terrible for wildlife once you dispose of the tree!

Other holiday dangers for cats:

Lillies (do not even bring them in your home!)
Poinsettias
Essential Oils (Lavender and others)
Grapes/Raisins
Garlic & Onions
Chocolate
Seasonal reminder that ribbon and tinsel can be DEADLY for cats. Please keep ribbon stored safely and tinsel out of your home completely. ⚠️ hhvh.net/2018/01/13/w...

Next time someone asks what's the matter with Musk's Twitter, show them this:
An account in India, amplifying a billionaire from South Africa being cheered by an Irish passport holder (using an alias) to encourage civil unrest in the UK.

here is immature, white crowned sparrow. I haven’t seen one in a while #Birds
The bird comes to the protective bird bath, and then it goes back from where it came. It doesn’t bathe.

Sunday 1123 COTD is Death. We begin our Thanksgiving week with a transition and change card.

Let's be brave, let's learn something new today.

It's a great day to clear the clutter in your home, office, or garage. It's out with the old and in with the new.

We clear the way for the change.

Monday 11/24 COTD is the 9 of swords, the "mind twisties" card. There could be a few things going on that may cause some worries or anxiety.

Thankfully we can breathe a little easier. Its a good sign letting us know we are probably torturing ourselves with negative thoughts.

Stunning views of this magnificent Peregrine Falcon at Clevedon yesterday! 😍
I only looked up because I heard a Raven calling overhead, and saw the Falcon dive-bombing the Raven! 😮😀🐦

Sometimes I put in an absurdly low bid on an eBay auction with the certainty that I definitely won't get it but also a vanishingly slim hope that MAYBE by some miracle nobody else will bid. Anyway that is how I ended up adding this magnificent glass plate negative to my collection! No date/info.
