A beautiful bird whose beak turns yellow by spring.
Though I will forever associate it with my time at Lackland AFB in basic training, where they roosted over the barracks. Each morning, we had to sweep up their copious poop.

And on a side note, if tRUmp won the 2020 election, then is he now in his third (unconstitutional) third term?

Wow! What a story! A third party relating the observation of a second party? Isn't that the definition of hearsay? I guess that's why it's in the smallest print.

Went to my local library this morning to do a bit of research for my current book project and my goodness such a life-affirming space! There was an adult being taught to read on the next table, children enjoying story time, countless people taking out books. So grateful for our libraries ❤️

Bird Snuggles into Photographer’s Chest And Stayed With Her for Warmth on a Snowy Day (LOOK)
A photographer Fay was visiting a park when a friendly robin came over and nestled right atop her camera near the warmth of her jacket.

And stop treating it as a fund raising opportunity.
I really need Democratic lawmakers to understand that we're fed up with them simply posting on social media "this has to stop" without calling for specific actions to make it stop.
We know this needs to stop. We elected you. Tell us what needs to be done to make it stop.

A great day on the Dublin Bird Race yesterday. 11 teams took part recording 109 species.
A decent tally given the persistent, (very wet) rain.
1st place went to ‘The Troy Parrotts’ beating favorites the “Southside Swifts”. Best name goes to “Irritable Owl Syndrome” #SpeirGorm #IrishBirding 1/2

Long live Larry!
For #caturday, here's a nice photo of Larry the Downing Street cat. Larry turns 19 this year, God bless him. His title is said to be Chief Mouser to the Cabinet Office. (Official portrait by Her Majesty's Government, 2016)

I *love* these RL Burnside videos of him strumming on an old guitar through an old amp on his natural Mississippi habitat. They never get old to me.

Who are the “two US officials” and why would CBS give them anonymity when they are just putting something out there that DHS and ICE obviously wants put out. Who are these “US officials” and why are they granted anonymity???

Remember when booze ads were banned from broadcast TV? For that matter, remember broadcast TV?
I would like to see any automobile ad that has a 'professional driver, do not attempt' disclaimer similarly banned.
The Dunning-Kruger effect prevents many drivers from heeding that warning.

While I doubt that five hundred heavily armed law enforcement officers were present at the Oscar ceremonies, one might ask why armed security would be needed at all.
The US arms dealer lobby, the NRA, doesn't care. As long as the money keeps flowing.
