I love wood ducks.
An overwintering male Wood Duck brings some color to the winter landscape as he strolls along the icy shoreline. He was with a flock of about 100 mallards.

We love you Larry!
A cheerful thought for a Sunday night: We're already 29% of the way through February; by the end of the month the UK will have an hour and forty minutes more daylight each day than it did at the start. Spring is coming x

Beautiful!
A male Common Goldeneye. These birds breed in the boreal forests, so fall and winter is the only time around here in Michigan to see them.

Beautiful!
The wings!

Love me some Cedar Wax Wings
A Cedar Waxwing taking a break from eating berries. These birds can form large flocks that can grow into the hundreds in winter. This one was part of a flock of about 30 birds.

A federal District Court judge stated in her order that Bovino repeatedly lied and changed his testimony in that case. So why publish a single word he says?

Sadly true. Our country has counted on having a sane, ethical, and rational individual as the chief executive. Sadly, that is not the case today.

Executive branch precedents can be garnered to support the action—which does not, of course, mean that it is lawful.

On the 11th day of Christmas my true love gave to me: 11 pipers piping, 10 lords-a-leaping, 9 ladies dancing, 8 maids-a-milking, 7 swans-a-swimming, 6 geese-a-laying, 5 GOLD RINGS, 4 calling birds, 3 French hens, 2 turtle doves, and a partridge in a pear tree. 38 people watched me devour 23 birds.

There’s a flock that usually overwinters here in Louisville KY, love the chatter of them as they fly overhead.
Sandhill Cranes strolling through the snow. Some Cranes will overwinter here; I saw a flock of about 40 the other day.

You’re right, I feel your pain.
I am the son of a an 89 y/o FOX viewer. I hate to break this to everyone but this shit gets through, it sinks in and leads to a place where my father and I no longer have a shared reality and can't talk about anything of importance.
Yes, it's that sad.

Right? Jesus H. Christ. As a Boy Scout we interacted with the Armed Forces regularly and in a positive way. This is stupid beyond belief.

Why is a story? The story is at the end. There isn’t desk there anymore. Of course, desks are used to do work. The orange one doesn’t do that. How sad for the nation.
