Hey, apologies in advance for anyone that follows me: this is a venting account! Yeah sometimes I'll say Normal Things but I am very depressed :')

Lately I've been reposting things to make it less hellish here but... just as a warning.

I wish I could just ignore things when there's nothing I can do.
I'm in the middle of nowhere, half a world away. I can't do anything. I can't do anything.

A Vermilion Flycatcher, it's a rarity for my location and a new lifer for me. Despite their adorable appearance, they are members of the tyrant flycatcher family and tend to have aggressive, territorial behaviors.

How... how can I provide comfort to my (US) friends in this time? I don't want to bring it up when they're already living it. I don't know what to do. I just have to hope they're alright. I have to hope that everything is okay. My heart is breaking.

Back to searching I suppose.

Mourning Doves. Wisconsin. 2025. Photo by me.

Mourning Doves can raise up to 6 broods of chicks in a single year! Probably not in cold areas like Wisconsin though.

The ubiquitous Australian Magpie (Gymnorhina tibicen). There is an introduced population in NZ as well. Famed for their aggression when the young are fledging. They will bonk people on the head if they get too close. 😀 #BirdingAustralia #magpies

A hunched up crow on a wall besides a river. He looks like he's waiting for someone to hop on his back but God knows where!

When eBird calls the Orange-crowned Warbler 'nondescript,' 'very plain,' and 'common', I think they mean they're "a quietly beautiful & gentle bird and we're so lucky to have them around all the time" 🪶

Lesser-striped Swallows
Pied Kingfishers
Saddle-billed Storks
Spotted Thick-Knees
Photo of two Lesser-striped Swallows on a wire. The top of their heads are russet, their throats, chests, and tummies are very definitely striped, and the wings appear black in the photo. They look very determined. A photo of two Pied Kingfishers at the edge of a rock; they are facing to the left of the image. A quick glance might make one think this is one bird with two heads, as they are almost perfectly aligned one behind the other. As their names suggest, the birds are black and white, mostly a crazy quilt of the two colors. This photo shows two Saddle-billed Storks facing to the left; they are in tall green grasses. Their bills from their heads downward are orange-black-orange, hence their name. Spotted Thick-Knees standing on arid land; everything is beige and brown, including -- actually, especially -- the birds. The one nearest the viewer is angled slightly to the left; the other bird, just behind the other is facing to the right. They are each looking at the photographer with one eye, and appear to thoroughly disapprove of the person behind the camera (and really, who can blame them?).
