Hey friend, I just started a poll blog to find the cutest baby animal. I thought you and some of your followers might be interested in submitting some cuties so I can get a bracket going!

Debated on whether or not to answer this ask, because I don't think people follow me to find new blogs, but I realized I could just do a poll in honor of yours! Good luck with the new blog!

Beetle grubs are some of my favorite baby animals, because they're so ridiculous and wiggly.

Townsend’s Solitaire

Find this thrush bird in forest edges in the West. The white eye-ring and long, slim tail with white outer feathers are key marks to look for in the field.

I forgot to share this here, but here’s some compiled clips from that time, a few weeks ago, that I helped one of my friends move across the United States. I don’t have any clips from the east coast, as I started filming when we reached Texas.

No, I’m not driving during these shots. They were taken during one of my rest shifts.

I went and joined iNaturalist, and you can see my adventures in the Klamath Falls, Oregon, USA area right over here.

I may occasionally post summaries of particularly interesting encounters with my local wildlife here, but iNat itself is the place to watch for day-to-day shenanigans.

Next year we have a road trip planned across the United States. I cannot wait until my eyes see these endless red hills and canyons for themselves.

American newspaper article from this day in 1924 about a tourist map of the western United States that shows the highways and roads that link the National Parks in that part of America.

This ruling is non-binding (not sure how it would be enforced even if it was considering Israel's chief protector is the U.S., which doesn't recognise the International Criminal Court and keeps trying to punish it for this kind of thing), but there's support for it across the board except from the US and its new vassal state, the UK. The Tory government has backed the US in ignoring every ICJ ruling on Palestine thus far and Starmer has been avoiding the issue but reinstated funding for UNRWA a few hours after the latest one. Starmer is a spineless Zionist maggot and as much of a US shill has the Tories however, so which way his government tips will probably depends on the strength of the US's reaction.

If you still want to vote for that death-worshipping lurching corpse in November and maybe claim back some of the voters who've decided they can't endorse this bloodthirsty maniac, now is the time to take to the streets and threaten to withhold your vote unless he fucking complies. Don't worry, the same amount of you will vote for him anyway since genocide is not a red line for you, but the DNC is jumpy enough now that they might want to err on the side of caution. Please try and stop your precious democracy from massacring any more children, even if only to save your own skins.

That is a bathrobe.

RB to see how others think-- also, what territory you're from and version of English you speak! (this is to settle a thing I am pondering)

Jackson Hole remains one of the most popular destinations in western United States, and for good reason. With unparalleled natural beauty and sporting options, visitors come back to the valley time after time.Visiting Jackson Hole doesn’t necessarily mean spending all your time outdoors, although it certainly can mean that! Panoramic vistas surround this mountain town which makes it a wonder to behold any time of year, but snowbirds flock to it in the colder months, looking for things to do in Jackson Hole in winter and to take advantage of the terrain.
