We always said if it was our country we’d step up to the plate and strangely enough, whether we like it or not, this uncomfortable moment has arrived and we are all holding our breath. Our complacency is what they are counting on. We need a strategy to help pull us TOGETHER!!

Happy #StumpDay

Came across this just behind a forest cabin I rented in the Kootenai National Forest next to the Yaak river Montana

I have very mixed feelings about it.. today i would rather have the 15,000lbs of carbon capture..rather than a national Christmas Tree

Happy #StumpDay! Shout out to the stupendous stump! 💚🌿🪵🌿💚

A glowing green landscape, of foliage and ferns, surrounds an old stump atop of a hill. Backlit by beams of searing sunlight. Its time as a tall and fertile tree has gone, now it nurtures new life as it returns to the ground.

Quite a stump and I agree about preferring the carbon capture.

Mushrooms really draw me in in a way flowers never have, the unknown, otherworldly.

Thanks, it’s one of my favorites. Lots of mushrooms running up and down it.

I am very appreciative of both @alan678.bsky.social and @robcrank68.bsky.social for doing the #BirdoftheDay. Its been fun to go through my archives and has given me a goal for the winter -- to get out and photograph more birds.
Today's theme of #droplets. Belted kingfisher in northern Illinois.

A gray, white and orange bird sits on a branch having just shaken water off her feathers. Water droplets fill the air and sparkle in the light.

The petrified remains of a troll, Hvítserkur rises 15 meters from the sea. Geologists would tell you that it is a sea stack composed of basaltic rock, but what fun is that? #photography #Iceland

A dark rock formation resembling a drinking rhinoceros rises from the sea. Behind it, the clouds catch the light of a sun that is beginning to set at 20:30.

A growing tree breaks a rock through root wedging, a process where physical pressure from roots forces cracks to widen. As the roots grow, they expand within a rock's crevices, exerting immense force that pries the rock apart over time. 💚

A pine tree is growing in a crack of a rock and has broken the rock in peaces over time.

This old Rowan tree seems to have grown a mushroom friend to brighten up the autumn. 💚

A “ walking contradiction” where events/ things can have multiple meanings based on perspective. Always love the gray area.💕
