I work in Yellowstone conservation. I read too much, and bird a lot. Ph.D, Volunteer firefighter, green card holder, opinion sharer. Ask me about Great-tailed Grackles.
Because Swedish TV is streaming all-Olympics-all-day, I have now watched the men's and women's classic cross-country skiing sprint competition time trials, quarter-finals, semi-finals, and finals. Now back to work before curling tonight.

I was surmised to find this T-post (fencepost) sticking out of recently eroded bank of Sand Creek in Torrey, Utah. These flashy desert creeks are amazingly dynamic. These posts have been in use since 1920ish, so the creek has aggraded and eroded a lot in a short period of time. #fluvialgeomorphology

It's December, it's snowing, and no field work until March. Let's look at more owl photos. This photo is from a night when a Northern Saw-whet Owl flew into a net at our Boreal Owl banding site. BOOW left, NSWO right. Birds trapped by licensed banders with federal and state permits. #birds #owls

Let’s make an actual point on immigration, since Vance thinks of the Immigrant Act of 1924 so highly.
It did make it much harder for immigrants to come here, especially from Southern and Eastern Europe, which were the main points of emigre at that time.
But it also had unintended effects 🧵/

JD Vance claims that diversity weakens unions, as people end up distrusting each other and not organizing.
Let me tell you two menswear stories related to this claim. 🧵
