Pine Siskins!
Today was a typical in-office day in terms of work, but outside, hundreds of American robins chortled and whinnied. In addition, my favorite rare (in the city) little brown birds, Pine Siskins, made an appearance!
The air quality is 85 on the AQI, while the WHO says it's safe for everyone at 25. The weather says we may get a little rain tomorrow, hopefully that helps.
Meanwhile, I'm in awe of the people of Minneapolis and am grateful for their peaceful leadership. Showing up as authentic patriotic Americans. Thank you.
7:18 am – 5:26 pm, which is 10 hours and 9 minutes of daylight.
Here is an article about SF's recovery. Where is our Mamdani?
Also, I'm envious of the snow. It's real snow, at least in Boston, and it's so beautiful in the beginning, especially because it makes the world a little muted. Here are some fun NYC snow pictures.
Sending oodles of love,
Tawnia
