“I knelt down. The dirt felt cool as it ran through my fingers. Nothing hits the nose quite like freshly tilled topsoil, carrying the scent of life and death. The ground around here smells rotten after a rain, gray buckshot petrichor, grabbing tires and axles and feet.”

It's always a celebration when all the ducks pass through Central Park during migration. One of my favorites is the Bufflehead--don't you love the name? And when the sun hits the male's feathers just right, the iridescence is ridiculous! 💙💚💜 #Bufflehead #CentralPark #birding

A new variant of flu A is rapidly spreading across the US. Three members of my household have had it in the last 2 weeks. The doctor at urgent care yesterday said everyone he saw yesterday had flu A. Get your flu shot and use air purifiers at your holiday meal!
Got the flu last year on Thanksgiving and it really sucked. Obviously vaccine is no guarantee you won’t get it, but it’s basically free with no downside and is, imho, a no-brainer.
