Here's a longer version of the Agami Heron courtship display, in full 4K!

The males will literally do this display all day long. At first, I thought that these were males that couldn't get a date, but we've realized that it's new birds arriving at the rookery.

Turki al-Jasser's sharp pen became his noose, as Saudi rulers silenced his dissent with a brutal blade for tweets deemed treason. A chilling echo of past horrors, the crown's iron fist crushes voices under a guise of security. #3E

War with Iran. Trump's "big, beautiful bill" that will kill people. Mass deportations and the loss of civil liberties for Americans, including Democratic politicians. These big stories have grave implications for the world. They are ground zero for GOP infighting. www.splinter.com/the-gop-is-s...

I signed the final bills Melissa Hortman shepherded through the most narrowly divided legislature in the county. All of them bipartisan.

We debated, we found common ground, and we compromised.

That’s how democracy should function.

17th century Flemish artist Jan van Kessel was famous for his precise but pleasingly-arranged studies of bugs etc, usually painted on copper. Here’s his ‘Butterflies, moths and other insects with a sprig of periwinkle’, which for some reason makes me feel cheery (1661)
