Holiday weeks can be busy and stressful on your body, even if you’re having fun.

This Piping Plover is here to remind you that rest is a critical part of life for all living things, including you!

Chicago folks: if you can, run outside now and look up in the southern sky for a splendid, diamond-sharp view of our moon in its first quarter… a sight to store up against whatever the incoming winter storm brings tomorrow.

Hey Chicago, when you are thinking about meeting friends and eating out this season, remember the 'hoods that have been hit hard by ICE and CBP, including Pilsen, Lil Village, Archer Hts and Avondale. Your $$ will help these places rebound.

If you can go outside right now and look east in that cold clear November night, you’ll see the moon, just hours away from last quarter, and Jupiter — dazzling in the hard black sky.

I have a cat sound asleep on my lap, and am therefore prohibited from budging. Anyone able to come over and refill my wine glass for me?

I’ve never seen irises blooming in November before (Lincoln Park, near the Zoo)

If you’re in Chicago, a ghostly moon is climbing in the east, faintly visible in a veil of clouds.

Good evening! Please enjoy this #ReliablyShite photo of the waxing gibbous moon as seen from North Dearborn Street in the Brassy End of the Gold Coast.

American kestrel — right here on the Brassy End of the Gold Coast! I watched the fellow perch for several minutes atop a nearby pole in my work-from-home view. I’d heard one a few weeks ago a couple blocks north, never expected to see one, though… Wowsers! #UrbsInHorto

The more you know…
Its itty-bitty paws and long, slender tail took the internet by storm. The imprint of what most thought was a flattened rat was both heart-wrenching and incredibly funny.

But the adoration was based on a mistake. https://wapo.st/4qajClr
