Part of me wishes I would tweet (what’s the Bluesky equivalent??) more bc I miss my old online friends, but breaking the habit of mindlessly scrolling on Twitter and banishing my terminally online brain has been so, so good for me

the serene tranquility i feel when standing on the side of the road, garbage trucks rushing past me, watching gulls fight over a chicken tender one brought to the flooded field from the dump next door. peak birding

I looked up what a group of Blue Jays is called, which is a "party" or "band." So here is a party of Blue Jays. (They do seem to like partying it up and causing a ruckus. I could see "a ruckus of Blue Jays" as a group name working too.)

Absolutely destroying the family in this tonight. I’m the only birder. No one else has got one right. Grandma is crying.
