A funny and fun sight. anyone else have recent bird happenings? please do tell! 🙏✨ 10.7.2026 #313430 this morning i watched one hundred vultures kettling--with some gronking ravens mixed in--catching thermal elevators to conserve energy on their migratory path onward. huge, spiraling wingspans layering clock-and-counter-wise at differing heights, making for a mesmerizing portal. 𓆂𓆃 𓆂𓆃 𓆂𓆃 𓆂𓆃 𓅛 𓆂𓆃 𓆂𓆃 𓆂𓆃 𓅛 𓆂𓆃 𓅯 𓆂𓆃 𓆂𓆃 𓅮 𓅛 𓆂𓆃 𓆂𓆃 𓅛 𓆂𓆃 𓅛 𓆂𓆃 𓆂𓆃 𓆂𓆃 𓅛 𓆂𓆃 𓆂𓆃 𓆂𓆃 𓆂𓆃 𓅮 𓆂𓆃 𓆂𓆃 𓅛 𓅛 𓆂𓆃 𓆂𓆃 𓅯 𓆂𓆃 𓅯 𓆂𓆃 𓅮 𓅛 𓆂𓆃 𓆂𓆃 𓅛 𓆂𓆃 𓅛 𓆂𓆃 𓆂𓆃 𓆂𓆃 𓅛 𓆂𓆃 𓆂𓆃 𓆂𓆃 𓆂𓆃 𓅮 𓆂𓆃 𓆂𓆃 𓅛 𓅛 𓆂𓆃 𓅯 (...this is a very poor representation. haha) as i stared in awe at this spectacle (stopped short on my bicycle on my way to work), a couple of bros in their 20s were walking by, totally unaware. i couldn't help myself and said, pointing, "are you seeing this??". i then explained kettling behavior and invited them to share in my delight. i think they at least got a kick out of my nerdy blabbering, but i hope they will look to the skies more often as a result. 𓆂𓆃 🌽 𓂏 🌽 𓂏 🌽 𓆂𓆃 perhaps in cosmic exchange for teaching the bros about kettling raptors, i was later taught the best way to eat corn on the cob-- Japanese style. it blew my mind and made me think (and then say aloud,) "i can't believe i'm 36 and only now learning how to eat corn." in case you're interested, this is how: you'll have to munch one row first, normal-style. after that, find the next intact row of corn, and using your thumb, gently pry the row away from the next one--not pulling the kernels off, but loosening them-- creating a space for your teeth to then neatly pluck the whole kernels off. repeat down the rows until you have a beautiful, neat, perfectly-plucked cob. no waste, no face-full of bits of corn, no stringy bits wedged between your teeth, no slimy-gnawed-hairy mess to be found! please let me know if this is also new to you, and if it also changes your life. 𓆂𓆃 🌽 𓂏 🌽 𓂏 🌽 𓆂𓆃 𓂅𓂅𓂅𓂅𓂅𓂅𓂅𓂅𓂅𓂅𓂅𓂅𓂅𓂅𓂅𓂅𓂅𓂅𓂅𓂅𓂅𓂅𓂅𓂅 #880b00 sweet menstrual relief: trading yesterday's woes for cramps, gladly. 𓂅𓂅𓂅𓂅𓂅𓂅𓂅𓂅𓂅𓂅𓂅𓂅𓂅𓂅𓂅𓂅𓂅𓂅𓂅𓂅𓂅𓂅𓂅𓂅 10.6.2026 #65748d 𓅠 𓀗 𓅠 𓀗 𓅠 𓀗 𓅠 𓀗 so 𓁼 tired 𓆑 sluggish 𓅾 sore 𓆡 bloated 𐦊 fog-brained ... oh yeah ፨ pms 𓆇 𓅠 𓀗 𓅠 𓀗 𓅠 𓀗 𓅠 𓀗 10.3.2026 #e69611 happy place ♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡ sitting in the sun with layers on in the autumn mid-morning with a cup of tea a bowl of homemade granola a sketchbook a 6B pencil a few feet away from hummingbird hoverfly lizard big leaf maple sage soaking in the sounds the sights the scents savouring ~ observing ~ being taking notes making sketches finding inevitable poetry not alone but with countless non-human marvels . 𓅰 𓅬 𓅭 𓅮 𓅷 𓅯 𓅭 𓅬 𓅰 𓅮 𓅷 𓅯 𓅭 𓅬 𓅰 9.22.2026 #c2d4c7 been feeling a bit : tangly, bungly bad, sad & mad wiped, whooped messed & 'pressed fuzzled, bumbled unrested, unsure foggy, boggy anxious & soggy empty, crusty crummy & crammed . . . . . . . .. .. . . . . . . . 𓆑𓆑𓆑𓆑𓆑𓆑𓆑𓆑𓆑𓆑𓆑𓆑𓆑 ✉︎ 𓆉 𓆉 𓆉 𓆉 𓆉 ✉︎ 𓆑𓆑𓆑𓆑𓆑𓆑𓆑𓆑𓆑𓆑𓆑𓆑𓆑 ✐✐✎✎ ✎✎✐✐ ✎✎✐✐ 𓈝 𝔐 𝔞 𝔦 𝔩 𝔟 𝔬 𝔵 𓅖 ✐✐✎✎ ✐✐✎✎ ✎✎✐✐ ✎✎✐✐ ▓▓▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▓▓ ✐✐✎✎ ✐✐✎✎ ▓░░▓▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▓░░▒ ✎✎✐✐ ✎✎✐✐ ▓░░░░▓▒▒▒▒▓░░░░▒ ✐✐✎✎ ✐✐✎✎ ▓░░░░░▓▒▒▓░░░░░▒ ✎✎✐✐ ✎✎✐✐ ▓░░░░░░▓▓░░░░░░▒ ✐✐✎✎ ✐✐✎✎ ▓▓▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▓▓ ✎✎✐✐ ✎✎✐✐ ✐✐✎✎ 𓆑𓆑𓆑𓆑𓆑𓆑𓆑𓆑𓆑𓆑𓆑𓆑𓆑 ✉︎ 𓆉 𓆉 𓆉 𓆉 𓆉 ✉︎ 𓆑𓆑𓆑𓆑𓆑𓆑𓆑𓆑𓆑𓆑𓆑𓆑𓆑 ▒▒▒ ▒▒▒ ▒▒ ▒▒ ▒ ▒ ▒ ▒ ▒▒▒ ▒▒ ▒▒ ▒▒ ▒▒▒▒▒ ▒▒ ▒▒ ▒▒▒▒▒▒ ▒▒ ▒▒ ▒ ▒▒ ▒ ▒▒ ▒▒▒▒▒ ▒▒▒▒▒ ▒▒ ▒▒ 11.1.2026 >> @leaf, mmmm, chilaquiles and tlayudas! how do you make tlayudas? thinly roll out masa dough and then bake with toppings like pizza? or pre-make the shells and then add stuff? i thought tylayudas were so cool when i first had them at a Oaxaca market-- so huuge!
