I took this photo earlier this week on a private photo workshop with a guest from Switzerland. I tend to focus on details instead of the entire landscape, like for this cascade.

Yellowlegs in Flight
I captured this image of a yellowlegs gliding down the red‑clay bank of a small lake in Georgia. Based on the length of its bill, I believe it’s a greater yellowlegs (Tringa melanoleuca).
Step into a world where even the smallest moments—like the glint in a bird's eye—tell their own story.

Sometimes we are not the ones who change would have like to change but it is us who have to create changes in life however much it costs our lives.
We believe that one plus one makes a bundle 🌿 but in which way? That is why here at green Earth Mission Uganda 🇺🇬 and Fischi farms we have decided to create it with young generations.

So I finished listening to this one today, and it talks about dragonflies and damselflies in rainwater runoff catch basins. You know those pits that you see where runoff is caught from parking lots. If those have a nice variety of aquatic plants growing in them, then they are important dragonfly habitat, even if the water quality is low. There might be seed bomb potential there.

Drought in our area is becoming incredibly heavy. Many gardens have given up. But we're still watering because what we grow us not just crops but hope for those in need. It's a tiring and hard work but every green leaf standing against drought is proof that we don't have to wait for rain to chose hope. Thanks to everyone that supports us in this journey.

Seems timely, since we are in midst of multiple #ClimateCrisis events, to post about 2 Canadian made film projects that explore what the world would be like, without humans.
First up is, Aftermath: Population Zero aka Aftermath: The World After Humans.
Imagine if one minute from now, every single person on Earth disappeared. All of us. Human history just stopped. What would happen to the world without us? Aftermath: Population Zero features what scientists and others speculate the earth, animal life, and plant life might be like if humanity no longer existed, as well as the effect that humanity's disappearance would have on the artefacts of civilization. this documentary is inspired by Alan Weisman's The World Without Us.

Fellow Californians, get on the phones to Senators Schiff & Padilla & your house rep. Demand they block this horrid ecosystem destroying venture.
Phone numbers for House and Senate offices, both voice and TTY, are available by calling the Capitol switchboard at 202-224-3121 (voice) or 202-224-3091 (TTY)
Update on the tiny ereader: I'm still loving my #XTEink and use it often, and Jupiter loves and uses theirs, too. This has really been worth the $69 for each of us.
This photo is from my doc's office today, instead of painting (I've already sketched that office a dozen times, lol), I decided to read. This is _The Lost Art of Reading Nature's Signs_ by Tristan Gooley, one of my favorite books. I've never read it on the XTEink before, but it formatted great.

Good morning. 😴⏰☕
7 July 2026
I got up this morning and immediately started doing things. I knew better. My first bright idea was to empty the paper shredder — a terrible decision at that hour — but I had a foolproof plan: flip the container upside down into a plastic bag. Well, never underestimate a fool. Half the confetti slid straight down my front and the rest sprinkled across the floor like a ticker‑tape parade gone wrong.
I still haven’t cleaned it up. I’m waiting for the rest of the household to wake before I fire up the vacuum. At this time of morning, it’s usually just Charlie and me shuffling around. C’est la vie.
Do auto manufacturers even make hubcaps anymore? I haven’t owned a car with hubcaps in decades. My teenage dream was a ’55 or ’56 Chevy with black rims and baby‑moon hubcaps — a fantasy from a long, long time ago in a state far, far away. Instead, I wound up with a beat‑up Chevy pickup that had “potential,” but potential costs money, and I had none. Any repair parts came from the junkyard down the street. I think the truck had two, maybe three hubcaps. Three sounds odd, but it matched the mismatched retread tires perfectly.
If someone drew a comic strip of that era, it would only need two frames: Dream and Reality.
Honestly, I’m shortchanging the story, because that truck did have an 8‑track tape player bolted under the dash — ready to blast rock and roll through two old bare speakers I wedged behind the seat. That part was pure glory.

Cattail — bog-luachair — the marsh's quiet pantry, standing in the shallow water at the edge of ditches you've walked past your whole life.
Shake the ripe spike over a bowl and it gives up a golden, protein-rich flour. Fold it half-and-half for pancakes the color of the sun.

Know your water before you forage — the plant that feeds you is only as clean as the water that fed it. What do you gather where you live?

It hit 100/117 this afternoon, leaving us with some distant “heat lightning” tonight.

Usually we walk through a lightly wooded area, with more fields than anything else. But today they were mowing so we went into the woods. There was no one else around so I let her off leash and Sadie had a blast running in and out of the river and through the woods jumping over fallen trees. It's a dog's life - and it's pretty sweet 😊
