Fish and Fowl

Today was another glorious day with blue skies. It was cold in the shadows but warm (or rather hot) in the sun. Work is basically insanely busy right now. The world is feeling out of control. The midterms are now underway. I think many people don't find this situation to be working for them. Even those who voted for Trump, so it will be rough for anyone who isn't new and isn't populist, it seems.

Today, there were two hawks. The Cooper's hawk was back, and a Red-tailed cruised by for a visit. And it is Wednesday, which means it's fish night. We had delicious rockfish, sort of prepared like sole, and lemon chard.

On another note, with so many wars going on, guess where the money is going. I was interested to read about the consolidation, and what that really means is more of a monopoly and ultimately a weakness in supply chains.

And some interspecies love.

6:35 am – 6:07 pm, which is 11 hours and 32 minutes of daylight!

The bird of the day is Turquoise-browed Motmot

Here is a poem for you.

Sending oodles of love,
