Good morning! 🪶
Day 1473 of Russia's despicable war on Ukraine and war crimes literally every day.
Here's another daily thread starting minutes after I closed the last one, followng an all-night vigil, detailing the long-feared multi missile attack.
All the news, all the time, every single day!

Over the past few years, especially during the Trump administration, we’ve seen how messy fights over elections and district maps can get. A lot of people worry about politicians shaping the system to help themselves instead of voters.

It’s trolling. The internet has moved outside the posting frames.
A rectangular pastiche of photos lies over a series of coloured concentric circles clearly drawn from the Warner Brothers cartoon opening sequences of the 1950s. The images in the rectangle include banners in a Japanese street demonstration, a photo of Hitler, the word “Ja” in Germanic script, and other somewhat gruesome and unsettling things that I don’t immediately recognize the identities of.
#StillDoinCDs Skinny Puppy was a Vancouver band that merged punk, Kraftwerk electro & Moev new-wave dance with an innovative mix of industrial & horror-movie soundscapes to make an eerie new pop music. Top track on 1989’s 5th album “Rabies” has Helter Skelter bits from Charles Manson & the Beatles.
A female hairy woodpecker perches on the side of a spruce tree trunk. She is black and white with a long sturdy beak for digging into the trees looking for bugs. The background is orange from the late evening sun.
We are fortunate to have both Downy and Hairy Woodpeckers around all year, but they are particularly active in the winter.
This female Hairy Woodpecker arrived with a few loud PIPS, to forage for snacks on or in the trees!

Trumpism has learned from its progenitor Putinism to NOT have principles (except when shouting that opponents should have them, as a baffling strategy). To understand Trump, simply imagine in a context of ruthlessness what would work to maximize advantage and eventually personal wealth.

A portrait of a short eared owl face
All of our wildlife patients this year so far have been owls, but this is our first short-eared.
You can help prevent car strikes like this by obeying rural speed limits and not throwing any litter out of cars. Even organics like apple cores attract rodents to roads, which attracts their hunters. 🪶

Man in an open batik shirt stands in front of a mural of George Michael as an angel riding a unicorn and shooting out rainbows from his hands.
Made a pilgrimage to bask in the iconic mural of George Michael in Sydney.
Aha! Lol

Last night I reported the US allowing India to buy Russian oil, due to the mid-east crisis the White House started.
Moments later they announce Russia has been providing Iran with Intel to target US forces.
The lack of foresight, planning or just ignoring intel is incredible.
It's been quite a week so far in Europe's war.
Yesterday saw happiness of a prisoner exchange, excitement at the continuing aerial offensive by Ukraine, disbelief as the US made winter far worse and anger as Hungary took Ukrainian hostages.

The end of the working week. Did you know it's the 211th Friday that Ukrainians have experienced enemy troops on their homeland.
Russia's enjoying the 3-day special operation so much, it's expanded to Day 1472

Close-up profile of pelican with bright blue eye. It’s breeding horn is evident on its bill. The background is frothy water.
Putting in my bet on this year’s American White Pelican arrival in Saskatoon (it’s an annual event - there are prizes!) has me thinking about how much I’m looking forward to seeing those gigantic prehistoric weirdos again. Can’t wait #birds
