Being kind is a choice. Getting more liberal every day.

I usually pride myself on crisp images, but on occasion I capture an image that is far from it. Taken tonight through plastic covered window giving it an impressionistic vibe. Northhern Cardinal against the full moon. #BirdoftheDay #songbird #EastCoastKin 🪶

Keep your snarky remarks to yourself. Don’t bother sighing so loud they can hear U in bakery dept. Because guess what skippy?

A first instar Monarch butterfly caterpillar on Common milkweed. When the cats hatch, they turn around and eat the egg they just emerged from. Definitely fits #BlueSkyArtShow theme of #small
