This is my best friend and emotional support cat, Ella, who takes her job very seriously. Part of my doctor's treatment plan for me is more time outside, and Ella helps by insisting on a daily walk.

Witchlore by Emma Hinds is a surprising and suspenseful YA queer contemporary fantasy/PNR. Orlando is a nonbinary shapeshifter who blames themself for the recent death of their girlfriend. A new boy in school offers to help raise her. #Books #BookSky #31DaysOfHalloween #Spooktober #Shapeshifter

The cover for "Witchlore" by Emma Hinds. A love story to raise the dead. The cover shows two teenagers facing away from each other, surrounded by wisps of magical energy and arcane symbols.

The majority of my photos are all chickadees since they tolerate my presence better than the other birds. A black-capped chickadee posed nicely for me during a break in the rain (his attention was focused on the nearby feeder). #BirdOfTheDay (Paridae) #Birds #Photography

A black-capped chickadee perched on a branch. His focus is on the nearby feeder, waiting his turn.

We didn't dress up last year, but here are the costumes my partner and I constructed for a party in 2023: jack-o'-lanterns with LED lights to provide the #Glow. #BlueSkyArtShow #Costumes #31DaysOfHalloween

Oh my. Sounds like they have pretty brutal lives no matter where they live. I do think captive breeding programs for endangered species are an excellent justification for zoos.

That was hilarious and so disgusting!
