Bluesky hive mind! The kid just told me that they're newly interested in "weird tabletop board games" and are looking for recommendations. Got any weird wonders you'd care to share?

🪶 A spotted towhee decided this was a good branch while I was looking out for birds of prey. This is the best shot I got of the striking red eye but it takes a 100% crop to see.

🪶 A couple of starlings drew me in to take a shot and when I downloaded the image I realized that most of the woodpecker holes have acorns in them! Some busy creature has taken advantage of the storage.

First off, this couple is hilarious and I want to subscribe to their podcast and be friends with them.

Realized today that it's been a hot minute (OK, 7 months) since I've posted any nature photos so here's a chrysalis! I had to move this one a few feet to keep it safe so it's tied up with some thread.

@aplante.com this seems like something you'd get a kick out of.
ok so i got some *more* constructive criticism from bird artists on my attempts at drawing birds. many said the legs weren’t realistic enough and i suspect they were right. i think i finally got it in this year’s calendar though, lemme know what you think

This sounds better than too much social talk into standups. I'm not opposed to some, especially as it feels like the only opportunity some people have as a relief valve, but having to gently keep the meeting on topic to respect group time pains me because I want people to have social growth too.

OK, this is wild.

In September 2023, geophysicists across the world started monitoring a very odd signal coming from the ground under them.

It was picked up in the Arctic. And Antarctica. It was detected everywhere, every 90 seconds, as regular as a metronome, for *nine days*.

What the HELL?

This is long for microblogging but _so_ worth reading. An incredible story of community and resilience (both on Jen's part and the eye infection) I'm left almost without words.
Update on my life: Last year, I joined my kids' school's PTA, because they needed a treasurer and I'm good enough with numbers. It was a straightforward, self-contained job: balancing the checkbook for an organization that only did a few fundraisers each year.
