Dearest game devs--

Every time I play a game where you can 'pet the dog' (or cat, griffon, etc), I call my dog over and give her a big hug or pet or ear scritches.

So, from both of us, please continue doing that. 🙂

Signed,
Alex & Cerise

We are on a Griffon Vulture's high🦅

Their population increased by 20% over the last 10 years in Andalusia! The region in southern Spain is an important wintering reserve for vultures from across Europe.

It's #InverteFest in most the world now, so before I go to bed, here's a spiny lobster from the Seattle Aquarium yesterday.

To help recover Pronghorn & Bison numbers, three #ParksCanada National Parks were established btwn 1915-1922: Menissawok NP in #SK, Wawaskesy and Nemiskam NP in #AB. All were later dissolved, but Wawaskesey is now part of CFB Suffield National Wildlife Area.

It is now possible to see more Pronghorn in a single winters day than there were on the entire Canadian prairies a hundred years ago.
The Canadian pop'n once declined to 3000- 5000 individuals , but now stands ~40K.

Sure, mountains are nice, but there are charms to the flat lands too.

My only other major acrylic painting for Day 22 of the #artAdventCalendar I did this short-eared owl a few years ago now and it tuned out well, considering I hadn't used my acrylics for 20 years. The canvas is 30 inches by 15 inches.

My mom was visiting this weekend and I had to explain to her a) how paid newsletters work and b) where to find ProPublica’s series on abortion restrictions and I understand the Problem With Today’s Media better now — she really wants all the good stuff in 1-3 print places and that’s just gone
