What happens when you try to get your ducks in a row

10 mallard ducks, almost in a row but one is facing the camera.

Whoever is picking transitional music for NPR is making me cry every other day lately 😢

These robins were pretty mean to each other as they fought to take a bath in the same tiny pool

Two puffed up robins were facing each other in a puddle of water

Another gorgeous sunrise on my way to find some birds.

(Well, there were very few birds.)

A golden sunrise, with some power lines across and trees at the bottom

Time to rewarch all of these before the world explodes. 🌎

I watched a lot of robins fight today. They're totally mean to each other!

I cannot stress this strongly enough: Support your local theatre, café, bookstore, bakery, and library. We breathe life into these places when we support them. They need us, and more importantly, we need them.
