Celtics fan for 60+. Johnny Most & Tommy were right. The other team has knives & axes. I can’t fish now, so I tie flies for Project Healing Waters, a program of Wounded Warriors. Fly fishing heals. Tying heals me from not fishing. Be kind & help others.

Hairy Woodpecker. Wisconsin. 2025. Photo by me.

These woodpeckers are year-long residents of Wisconsin. Their diet is primarily insects, but they'll readily come to bird feeders. They especially love suet! #birdfacts 🪶

SNAP isn't about "people who don't work." It's about people who don't get paid enough to live.

Of the 40 or so million people who rely on food stamps:

* Two-thirds are children, seniors, or disabled

* Most working-age adults who receive SNAP are employed—but in jobs that pay poverty wages

ROLLING STONE: “The current Congress has dropped the pretense of public service altogether… Congress enjoys ultraluxe health care as it fights to gut yours.”

Today, Mike Johnson will keep the House adjourned for the 84th day out of the last 96.

12 days of work in over 3 months.

With full pay and benefits.

The senate has been working, so this is not about the shutdown.

It is about avoiding a vote to release the Epstein files.

Walz: "They are paying contractors to pay down the East Wing but they're not putting money into the food bank. So if there's a sense of frustration in America, it's very real ... when the White House press secretary said their top priority is the ballroom, we could not disagree more."

I have a very bad feeling about this...

The Walton family (who own Walmart) are worth over $400 billion, yet many of their employees are on SNAP.

Bezos is worth over $400 billion, many Amazon employees require SNAP.

The people who need help are not the problem.

It’s corporate greed. It’s an unwillingness to pay a living wage.

The Oldman River watershed in southwest Alberta is a network of cold, clear freestone streams fed by the Rockies. Rivers like the Livingstone, Crowsnest, Castle, and creeks like Racehorse and Dutch hold native Westslope Cutthroat and Bull Trout. Clean flows. Wild fish. Big sky. Perfect!

As far as I can tell Okinawa is just one big photogenic frog contest. Who told them how to look so coy??

Sometimes I have to walk for miles before finding a particular bird (if I find them at all), other times I don't have to walk far at all. This female Pileated Woodpecker was looking for foodstuffs in the parking lot.

Someone wants me to follow him somewhere! (And I'm gonna! [It's to his basket of toys — he likely misplaced one.])
