A bright orange and black male Hooded Oriole sits on a piece of wire on a wood fence with a rose bush behind it.
First confirmed male #HoodedOriole arrived at our house in #SanDiego this morning! Slightly earlier than normal but my husband was excited to get a photo of this beauty and we have fresh orange halves out! π§‘π€
A young man in a dark blue shirt wears a leather gauntlet on his left arm, on which a tethered one-eyed red-shouldered hawk perches.
Went to a neat free event today sponsored by the #SanDiegoRiverParkFoundation w/ speaker from @sdhumane.bsky.social #ProjectWildlife. We learned about local raptors, like this one... his name is Popeye and he's a one-eyed 22-year-old red-shouldered hawk weighing in at close to 1.5 pounds. π€©
This is wonderful, Pedro - it's great to see your work getting recognized!

Hello, #WormMoon. Not sure if our skies will be clear in several more hours for the #eclipse but for now you're really pretty. π π

Yeah, the timing is...not ideal and would freak pretty much everyone out.
Heads-up Tues night, SoCal: "Operational test launch of Air Force Global Strike Command unarmed Minuteman III ICBM scheduled from #Vandenberg btwn 11:01 pm - 5:01 am Pacific Time, Mar. 3 to Mar. 4. This test is routine & was scheduled years in advance." www.vandenberg.spaceforce.mil/News/Article...
Here's Audubon's page about Bewick Wrens: www.audubon.org/field-guide/...
We are so happy because this particular birdhouse on our fence has been installed but unused for years. Fingers crossed for some Bewick babies in a couple of weeks!
A slightly blurry endoscopic photo inside a wooden birdhouse where a Bewick wren nest holds 5 small white eggs.
Not the best photo because I was trying to do a super quick capture with our endoscope camera attached to my phone while the parents were out... but there are at least 5 itty bitty eggs (each smaller than a dime) in the Bewick wren nest in our birdhouse! π₯°
This is amazing.

If you have a library card that offers videos on Kanopy, this Oscar-nominated documentary short ("Perfectly a Strangeness") is now available. It's quite beautiful. #AlisonMcAlpine #PerfectlyAStrangeness t.co/Ak9B6ri1cC www.kanopy.com/en/product/1...
Today I learned how to use a miter saw, that we checked out for free from a local library's tool inventory. #LibrariesRock #TheMoreYouKnow
Hugs, my dear!

A ground squirrel and a rabbit just had a race in our backyard, LOL! π€£
Ice cream is always an option! π¨
We used to way back when, but we've been together almost 30 years so tend to do random gifts whenever throughout the year...but tonight will be the traditional picnic/charcuterie dinner at home. I hope you both have a lovely day together!
A woman's fingers hold a small green crocheted dill pickle with a tiny mason jar shaped sign that says, "To MY Love. Out Of Everyone In The World, I Pickle You. You Mean A Great Dill To Me."
Hubs and I haven't exchanged Valentine's Day gifts for years but today he gave me a pickle. π₯°π₯π #TrueLove #GeeksInLove #PickleLovers
All is good here, all things of the world considered. One day at a time, and all that. π I hope you have a wonderful weekend ahead of you.
While my husband is definitely the board gamer in our house, we watched this together last night and both really enjoyed it. #BoardGames #Documentary #TheHobby tubitv.com/movies/10004...
