Stupid money 💰 I have worked way too hard and way too long to throw it away at this sort of nonsense. I try to not be surprised at the stupidity of people who throw their money away at stuff like this.
People with money to waste. And there are people who are happy to take their money that they want to throw away. I will never understand it and no surprise it’s Los Angeles being an Angeleno myself.
Dad is busy feeding the fledglings while mom is sitting on her second clutch of 5 eggs. She does periodically come out to help eat and feed the fledglings. Dad is running ragged though.

Google identified it as a golden fronted and looking at it online, your photos with the yellow colour on its face would means it’s a golden fronted woodpecker. Cool photo!! We don’t have them here on the East coast.

Photos of a Forster’s Tern twisting in flight as it sheds water 💦 from its feathers, you can see it better by opening each photo individually. These birds are acrobatic flyers!!!

Bill signing at the Maryland State house. Two bike safety bills; Sarah Debbink Langenkamp Memorial Act and Vision Zero Advisory Commission. #bikesafety #bikeadvocacy #bicycling #bikes
We got this bill across the finish line when it was signed into law. I was also mentioned in this article as it talked about efforts to get the bill passed. #biking #bicycling #safety

moco360.mediaI agree and I hope so, but sometimes I really wonder about the blatant disregard some have for others lives including their own!
Caught this unknown bird at my suet feeder this afternoon. Might be a woodpecker of some type? 🪶 #birds #nature #photography
Of course not, drivers education is seriously lacking these days. It is interesting that if a crash occurs that imprisonment is a penalty. If one hits a VRU, no incarceration in the VRU law, we had to remove it to get it passed. Why can’t there be consistency in the laws with respect to penalties?
Florida has finally passed a VRU law protecting bicyclists and others VRUs

I have one that visits regularly. Have shared photos here in the past. A truly majestic bird. The other day, I had an indigo bunting, a rose breasted grosbeak and the pileated show up in that order.

It’s always a slap on the wrist and “next time” which then becomes another “next time”… ridiculous
Yesterday was a day for bird sightings at my home. First an indigo bunting appeared followed by the grosbeak (pictured) and during that time, a male pileated woodpecker appeared. I wasn’t able to get photos of the others. 🪶 #birds #photography #birdphotography #canon #rosebreastedgrosbeak
It is tragic what they are doing. Destroying a beautiful mid-century modern home like that ought to not be allowed. Sad 😢
Dang I paid back all my loans and worked to pay for my education. Didn’t have this gift 🎁
They just fledged. Proud dad and one of the fledglings still with some baby feathers 🤓 🪶 🌿 #birds #photography #birdphotography #canon #canonR5 #nature #bluebirds
