Wow that was quick
Maybe Crabrawler needs a regional variation?
I was disappointed it wasnβt originally based on a pompom/boxing crab.

No.
OP doesnβt like dogs and neither do the wildlife theyβre making a home for.
I was going to recommend those too!
It discourages dogs too, and probably helps water down pee.
The scarecrow was a popular brand a few years back but there might be more options now.

Step-by-step collage titled "Construction of a hibernaculum at Nobody Nursery"
A hibernaculum is a comfy place for animals to hibernate, and here at Nobody Nursery Iβve built one for reptiles and amphibians, with a rock garden on top of it.

Correction: they went *looting* for dinosaur bones.
Birdhouses shouldnβt have perches!
They donβt really use it, having a perch by the entrance just leaves a handhold for predators.
A dead adult male Annaβs Hummingbird, lying on a crumpled brown napkin, beak facing left with wings against his side. His coloration is mostly dark iridescent green and black, with some rumpled gray of the downy edges that stick out between his wing and neck. The iridescent purple of his gorget is slightly visible from this angle.
A front facing view of the male Annaβs hummingbird, still on the brown napkin, but showing a brighter angle of the iridescent purple feathers of his gorget.
Donated an Annaβs Hummingbird to the Natural History Museum at University of Puget Sound yesterday!
Poor guy hit one of the big ground floor windows of the science building. Now he can help their collection of knowledge.
Burrowing owlet standing in the shade and winking. He is holding his wings away from his body to cool off.

A small, old house (circa 1903) white with green trim, with two windows on either side of the four-column porch, surrounded by a small picket fence and vibrant pink roses.
The old keeperβs house can be rented!
3 bedrooms, 250/night
Itβs cute!

Wide shot of the water at the Browns Point Lighthouse Park. The lighthouse is a tall, angular, white building with windows just below the lamp, surrounded by a metal fence at the base, and to the right of it in the foreground is a figure (my spouse) standing on the divider between the beach and the sidewalk running towards the lighthouse.
Spouse and I visited my childhood beach hangout today to take pictures for @jeffvandermeer.bsky.socialβs lighthouse photo submission call!
So nice to see it after all the renovations, the tide was in but the weather was perfect for just sitting and enjoying the view.

School barely started and already losing our heads
What a thing to wake up to at 4 am.
I worked on New Yearβs Day, and people jumping in the icy water for our annual polar plunge filled the morning litter picking run with curses and screams.
Seemed appropriate!
Happy New Year π΄
In middle of a graceful, fibonacci-curved spring tomato leaf sits a large green caterpillar in side view, its front curled as if in prayer, in an ethereal soft light, slightly backlit.
My best photographs of 2025, a short thread.
A tobacco hornworm on one of its favorite foods, a garden tomato plant (Texas, May 2025). This one makes the cut because it is more aesthetically pleasing than I was aiming for, somehow.
I wish, it looks incredible!
Was about to get up from a nap and the cat asks to snuggle under the covers.
Canβt get up.
Now heβs purring. Send help.
I drew him!
