I took my corgi, Zoe, to Pet Therapy today. She very transactional -- treats = love.
My mutt, Tegan, thinks it is always her turn to go to the hospital. She's very upset that she didn't get to go today.
Next time, Tegan. Next time.

There is a divergence of canine opinion as to the value of Pet Therapy.
Zoe’s Turn To Go To Pet Therapy
I took my corgi, Zoe, to Pet Therapy today. Everybody loves a corgi, but she's a very transactional dog -- treats = love, love = treats. So long as we all understand this, it works okay. My mutt, Tegan, on the other hand, thinks it is always her turn to go to the hospital. It is her favorite thing to do, and she is very upset that she didn't get to go today. Next time, Tegan. Next time.

I started getting reports of an unseasonal Joshua tree bloom in the last few weeks, and looking over records on @inaturalist.bsky.social it's pretty widespread! So we're putting out the call for folks to record this "bonus bloom" and help us study it 🌿

Weird wet weather has Joshua trees flowering early — or late? Help the Yoder Lab map this “bonus bloom” to understand why

Darwin the Wonder Corgi loved to wrestle with the garden hose as it was blasting out water. He always let it win.

Last June: A black-billed magpie with the male cones off the pine tree in its beak. I have no idea if it eats the cones whole, or pecks them apart to get at the pollen or ... what?
But with a magnificent tail like that, who cares?

Thanks for sharing your time with me.
Happy Thanksgiving!
Wild Turkey, Rocky Mountain National Park, September, 2015 It's been a difficult year, and sometimes, it's been hard to see my blessings. I'm taking today to count them. One of my blessings is you, my readers. I love taking the pictures of nature and editing them so they're just right; I enjoy writing text to go with the photos. All of it is wonderful! But it's a lot more fun knowing that you are out there enjoying them. Thank you for stopping by my blog.

Magpies and crows were not very happy with something in a pine tree. When we looked, it looked back.
Very proud of this one because I have never found an owl on my pwn before. The magpies helped, of course.
