I popped outside to do some quick yardwork and looked up to see this guy watching me. I'm sure it's fine. #vulture

A black vulture standing on green grass next to a street. It is looking back over its right shoulder at the camera.The same culture facing away from the camera, wings spread, about to take flight.

@gikkt They're beautiful! 😍

Went to bed at 10 last night and woke up about 3:30. Did not get back to sleep, but I stayed in bed and kinda dozed until 6 because the body needs REST if not good SLEEP. I'm still on vacation and my body just rejects beds that aren't my own after 2 or 3 nights. Bleh.

Denmark just knocked Canada out in the quarterfinal round of the IIHF Men's World Championships. Might be the biggest upset in tournament history?! Really cool that Denmark was able to do it in front of their home fans, too. Sidney Crosby in shambles.

I'm not at all sure the Edmonton Oilers are capable of playing a normal game.

During a storm last year, we had a huge section of a hemlock snap off and fall directly atop the brook, creating a gnarly walkway for animals that might want to traverse it.

My wife and I began to see a pair of Gray Foxes go across, so I moved one of the trailcams to see if I might get a crossing in action.

It didn’t take long. 🦊

A white peacock butterfly was supervising this morning’s watering rounds from its perch on one of the hibiscus.

Oh baby! We just got a killdeer flyover! That's hot shit!

Chilling on the back porch with the dog listening to the birds at the beach house. Time to turn on Merlin Sound ID.

I am not convinced it's right about the warbler, but I saw everything else.

i did the folded collar! used a three needle bind off to knit the first and last rounds together combined with jeny's super stretchy bind off technique because i didn't want to sew it down. the bind off alone took over 2 hours 🙃 but it's done and looks decent imo. also a better view of the heathering in the yarn close up!

a close up photo of a handknit sweater, focusing mostly on the neckline, which is a folded over collar of 1x1 half twisted rib stitch. the yarn is a warm green with flecks of yellowy brown fibres heathered in

@threeofswords Hell yeah, well done!

I really hate these "remember to do basic life things!" posts that I see on my feed all the time. They are so fucking patronizing.

@katykaty Katy, you don't need another dog.

Another year, another crushing playoff elimination for the Toronto Maple Leafs.
