Delighted with this generous gift from Bob.

60 trees for 60 years.

Thank you πŸ™πŸ» Bob!

@protect.earth & @philsturgeon.com are doing great work.

I must get up to Warleigh to lend a hand.

This is called a "thaw circle". When the darker bark of the trees absorb the warmth of the sun, it causes the snow to melt faster around the tree.

There is much more snow in the forests, but in the open areas thaw circles are now appearing. As the snow melts, and the darker bark of the trees absorb the warmth of the sun, it causes the snow to melt faster around the tree. Eventually to the bare ground. #winter #snowmelt #canada #snow ❄️

We are likely going to lose a lot of snow these next couple of days. Heavy rain and mild temperatures in the forecast. #ForestFriday

I have never used Spotify or Bandcamp. Default my preference would be YouTube.

I feel for you, Jennifer. My dad died in 1973 when I was 15. I did have a great relationship with him. I do miss him, but think your situation would be much harder. πŸ™

God, we seek from you truth in our history. We know that most history has been written by the winners. Give us the willingness to hear the stories that have been silenced.
We pray for those who have stories that're difficult to tell.
Grant us both the courage to speak & to listen

I have had that before over on X. Though I don't use that platform anymore. Settings on my Bluesky account to not show any nudity or adult content. Settings seem to work. πŸ™

The High Force waterfall is amazing, coming out of the hill.

I don’t know about you, but I find this terrifying.

Also, isn’t that the pastor that says women shouldn’t have the right to vote, among many other disturbing things?

Beautiful mama Red Tailed Hawk who I believe has at least one egg in her nest. We shall see.

It's HAWK BABY TIME! Mama Hera was glued to her nest this morning even in the sleet. She only got up once to stretch and let me grab a picture. #birds #hudsonhawks

Thank you for sharing this, Kelsey. Our feathered friends do face a lot of pressures. It is great that cities like New York have spaces where birds can thrive.
Also non-profit agencies in the city like The Wild Bird Fund. 🐦
