Maverick-ornithography - Dispatches From The Academy Of Bird Sciences

oh, ew, i hoped to never see one of those outside of a field report

Garmentless Blue Herons are often discovered in areas where few clothes are worn, but are notable for their staunch refusal to wear anything at all regardless of local requirements. For many years it was hypothesized they were simply a nudist offshoot of the GBHE Complex, but their complete absence of presence at designated ‘au naturel’ preserves indicates a darker purpose to their in-the-buff breasted nature. Fortunately for us all they are covered in feathers so the impact of their behaviour is blunted, but their intent is still clear.

gods i wish you had encountered a Genial or even a Goading Blue Heron but unfortunately no @chickenkeeping you got a pervert bird lurking by your pool :/

birds are so weird. what is this thing. what is he doing. please I want to swim in that pool

hey do any of you have any tricks and/or tips on not succumbing to the dark and icy grip of despair? i am having a lot more difficulty than normal given both the physical and political climate and i could use some external thoughts on how to keep one’s heart from freezing over.

in return please have my current ember, the only epazote seedling that survived my tragic mistake of placing trust in other people. they are just barely 2cm tall.

its trans day of visibility so here is me in my greenhouse

five years ago if you had told me that i was a girl, that i would have multiple people who actively wanted me to be part of their lives, that i would have my own actual for real greenhouse to grow plants in, that tens of thousands of people have read something i wrote, that i would want for the most part to stay alive... i probably would have broke down crying. which, i mean, i did cry every time one of those things happened so

(i am an emotional person; it is very easy to make me cry)

anyway, my point is that my life has gotten exponentially better since i learned that i am trans, and i am grateful that i have had a chance to learn and grow and not just survive, but thrive.
