Golden eagle spotted in England for first time in more than a decade
A golden eagle has been spotted in northern England for the first time since 2015, indicating the birds may soon be expanding their range south from Scotland into England, where they’re currently considered locally extinct. Conservationists and scientists working in a remote area of rural Northumberland, an English county that borders Scotland, reported seeing the […]

This spring I built enclosures out of 1” PVC sched 40 pipes with 3/4” PVC Sched 40 side panels.
Our intention this year is to share only with family and friends.
Tomatoes in one bed, Strawberries in the other.
Enclosures are 6’ high to allow easy human access via side panels.

She likes to go round there from time-to-time to check if there are any nesting birds. Because you never know. Ever the optimist.
It's a bit of a squeeze, and she comes out covered in dust. I have yet to determine how she manages to turn around. I suspect she uses a wormhole or something.

If you ever find yourself in Sofia, Bulgaria, during a hot summer, ask your guide to take you to one of the residential district streets where trees on both sides grow as high as a 5-story building and the thick leaf canopy transform the street into a 100-200 m long green tunnel of blissful shade and sounds of birds chirping. There's plenty of coffeehouses, wine bars, eateries and restaurants to make it worth your while.

Setting a caged animal free is good for your karma.
That's why you can find cages filled with little birds for sale at the bigger Buddhist temples here in Saigon.
To sell them, you'll have to catch them first. So, in many trees lining a canal here, you'll hear birds chirping away.
Or is it the mp3 player you hear?
On the left you see a small cage, filled with birds that were lured in there by the mp3 player (in a little plastic bag) on the right of the photo. Difficult to spot, but you'll get there.
During the week cages are picked up and rotated out for empty ones.

Calamus 13 "Calamus taste"
A celebration of nature in March, an entreaty to enjoy and nurture growth. Both botanical and metaphorical, our personal growth. Some lovely turns of phrase:
Gushes from the throats of birds
Frost-mellowed berries
But I'm here for the gay reading. The erotic is latent in all this burgeoning spring. But it's also more explicit. That first line "Calamus taste" sure is promising if we understand Calamus as a phallic symbol. Then there's the "pinks of love", the "young persons wandering out in the fields", the "love-buds".
It's not porny or anything but it's a little horny. The physical exuberance of springtime.
This poem got edited heavily down in later versions, and perhaps it needed it. But he eliminated one of my favorite lines, "I must change the strain". Gonna drop that in conversation next time I need to change the topic.

A person is lying on a bench to the right. The railing along the walkway provides safety and a place to lean. Trees line the opposite bank, and the water is calm, reflecting the peacefulness of the scene.

The image is a black-and-white photograph depicting an industrial scene. In the foreground, there are trees and vegetation. Rising above the trees are two tall smokestacks, emitting plumes of smoke into the sky. The sky itself is mostly clear, with a few faint spots that could be birds or debris. The overall atmosphere suggests an industrial area, possibly a factory or power plant, set against a natural backdrop.

Drawing inspiration from the adaptive wing shape of birds in flight, this study introduces a bio-inspired concept for shape adaptation utilizing bend-twist coupling (BTC) in composite laminates. The primary aim of the design optimization is to identify the optimal fibre orientation angles needed to produce the required bending and twisting deformations, which directly contribute to the design's goal of maximizing lift without relying on external mechanisms for twisting.

Hab gerade nachgewogen - das Aquarellblatt auf dem sie gemalt werden ist mit 5 Gramm gerade mal genauso schwer wie ein lebendiges Sommergoldhähnchen 🥹, die Winzlinge werden hier auch überlebensgroß gemalt.
#workinprogress 🎨, freie Arbeiten, kommen später in den #wandklex Shop.

Balloon Juice - On The Road - Albatrossity - The Chiricahuas week 3
Albatrossity My god, the country is going to hell not in a handbasket, but in a flaming dumpster full of orange pancake makeup and court orders that have apparently been used as toilet paper.
