Analysis Suggests School Was Hit Amid U.S. Strikes on Iranian Naval Base

U.S. forces likely bombed an Iranian elementary school on Feb. 28 during an operation targeting a nearby military base, a New York Times analysis suggests. It is the deadliest known episode of civilian casualties since the U.S. and Israel attacked Iran β€” and no side has yet taken responsibility.

Interestingly I had Ai do an approximation and it suggested over 50,000 birds in the landscape image 🀯

A bit of nemesis bird for me the Marsh Harrier, always struggle to get "close" images even at 800mm they still keep manage to be just to far to get that "perfect" portrait. So environmental shots it is:

Southern Spain delivered two stars last November: the critically endangered Iberian lynx, and the brilliantly colourful Iberian magpie.

In November 2025 I travelled to southern Spain in search of the Iberian lynx. Hours in a dark hide for a brief encounter with one of the rarest cats in Europe.
Part 1 of the write-up is now live on my blog.

New year started well! US bombs a sovereign country and kidnapped its leader.

Regardless of who Maduro is, this a flagrant disregard for international law!

The lack of condemnation from the UK government speaks volumes. Utter disgrace!
