Feeling safe sharing this photo with you now 😁

Pretty sure the "What is the maximum number of robin photos you can post in a year" counter, was set back to zero 2 days ago

Happy new year robin to you all 🤗

In 2026, we can’t take the easy path by giving in to despair. We have to keep doing something to be ready for the moment the right combination of events align and we can see a better future.

Er zijn gelukkig tal van goeie, eerlijke mensen. Er was vanmiddag paniek in ons huis. Mijn vrouw verloor in een onbewaakt moment een mapje met haar mobiele telefoon, inclusief pasjes, onder meer die van de bank. De vinders spoorden haar op via sociale media. Dank voor dit mooie einde van 2025!

There are things that shouldn't be in private control, and water is one of them.

In East Maui, Hawaiʻi, a decision is pending on whether to grant a 30-year water license to a private Canadian company whose predecessors have a long history of devastating the ecosystem or give control to the county.
East Maui Water Fight Returns To State Land Board
The battle over who controls one of the island's major water sources — a foreign company or a county board — appears headed to a contested case hearing.

Bij de Tweede Kamerverkiezingen in 1982 werd de PvdA wederom de grootste partij met 47 zetels, maar na de formatie werd het kabinet-Lubbers I gevormd door CDA en VVD. De PvdA nam geen deel aan dit kabinet. 3/3

Dit is echt te triest voor woorden.

Klimaatbeleid slopen en als je ervoor op de vingers getikt wordt omdat je je niet aan je eigen verantwoordelijkheid houdt, nog verder gaan met slopen.

A sensible response to the climate/habitat destruction/environment crises by governments would seem to me to include a big effort on creative ways to help people realise that their lives can be more fulfilling without overconsumption.

In the west, @irishrainforest.bsky.social has been letting the forest speak for itself — watching a mountainside return to life.

When we stop managing and start listening, the land remembers how to be wild. 🌿

A wee gentle fact to wash over you amidst the shitshow that is life on this planet right now.
It’s not normal folks.
It’s not acceptable.
It’s not without precedent though.
And we know where it all ends.
If we let it.
Life’s precious, short and lived once.
Don’t allow them diminish it on you.

Observation suggests that #bumblebees fly more slowly and indeed land more slowly in low light conditions compared to flight in bright light.
Their flight paths to destinations are also less direct and more meandering.

📸 Fotograaf en filmmaker Kadir Van Lohuizen maakte een aangrijpende portretserie van mensen met Parkinson die langdurig in aanraking kwamen met bestrijdingsmiddelen. Het laat zien wat vaak onzichtbaar blijft: de impact van deze middelen op onze gezondheid.
