Red-Tailed Hawk (on transmission tower, early Jan.)

Red-Tailed Hawk: NOT a Birb.

And this hawk(?) is definitely *not* a birb…but I saw it on the same bike path in the middle of the suburbs. It landed on a transmission tower and looked around for a few minutes before flying off. https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/37541270 #birds #nature

This solitary hawk(?) landed in the scaffolding of a transmission tower above a suburban bike path, and stayed there, looking around, while I walked closer to it. After a few minutes, it flew off to another tower.

This is what happens when you elect someone who has no impulse control, doesn’t think ahead to potential consequences, has a hair-trigger temper and is focused more on power than responsibility.

LITERALLY EVERYONE ELSE.

Either he has no idea what he’s doing as Commander in Chief, or he’s deliberately trying to provoke a war (or both) after being formally impeached for abusing his power. Either way he has no business being in the job.

Remove him before he does any more damage.

Yeah, it’s been obvious for years, but it’s just gotten a lot more urgent.

I’m always torn between trying to contribute to making my corner of Twitter better and just staying away from the dumpster fire. And between trying to ignore the train wreck and making sure I stay informed about it. This is part of why I’m not as active here as I could be.

One of at least three sea otters I saw during a few minutes…

One of at least three sea otters I saw during a few minutes walking along the shoreline of Monterey Bay near Old Fisherman's Wharf last weekend. #animals #nature #otters #ocean #Monterey #California

I’ve never understood the mindset that thinks taxes are more invasive than, say, eavesdropping on your communications, deporting you for a years-old traffic violation, shooting you for jaywalking, or locking up your kids because you fled a war-torn country to seek asylum.
