#BirdOfTheDay #SittingDownOnTheJob

Two brown pelicans, an adult in the foreground, a juvenile in the background, sitting/lying on the rocky ground. The juvenile is sleeping, head tucked into its back. The adult is still awake, neck folded into its body so the head is resting on its back, and its huge beak is resting lightly on the ground in front of it,

That was so mean to cephalopods 😭

A peach-colored dumbo octopus on an ocean floor, sits with its short tentacles curled up under it. A hand drawn blue tear falls from its eye in sadness at being compared to the horrendously ugly alien-man Stephen Miller

I also got the best sleeping Freiren

A tiny Frieren figure from the Frieren: Beyond Journey’s End anime. This gashapon series consists of several sleeping Frierens. This one is Frieren flat on her back, arms wide open, legs stretched out, her lavender silver hair spread out around her head, her mouth wide open, snoring, possibly even drooling. She is wearing a plain white nightgown and red earrings in her pointed elven ears

Ok I really love these Jojo’s gashapon. But I need Giorno and Jotaro.

Three tiny Jojos figures from Jojo’s Bizarre Adventures. They are displayed in half of the gashapon ball they come in. From left to right: Jolyne, wearing her green outfit and her hair in buns, in an orange display orb, Josuke, in his baggy navy school uniform and pompadour, in an orange display orb, and Joseph, wearing an olive sleeveless shirt, blue pants, and his green and yellow striped scarf, in a purple display orb.

Saw these back to back when standing in one place. Ash-throated flycatcher and canyon wren. Placerita Canyon. A birding birthday present! #Lifer #BirdOfTheDay

A sleek thin songbird (ash-throated flycatcher) perched upright on a branch. The bird is grey with a thin black beak, a cream, buff, and pale grey underside, and orange undertail.

A canyon wren launching itself off a branch. Its wings and tail feathers are spread wide. It is a small brown songbird with a long, thin, down-curved beak. Its beak is partly open. The wings and upper body is brown. Its chin and chest are white or pale grey. The tail is rusty with dark brown barring, and spread like a fan. Behind it is a rocky wall and scrubby plants.

#Ebony&Ivory is such a fancy tag for #BirdOfTheDay (birds with black and white plumage). So here is a mottled pigeon.

A pigeon standing on the floor of a wooden pier. It is mottled in black and white, the pattern like a tortoiseshell cat or a brindled dog. Its feet are red with black claws. It is facing the viewer with its head cocked curiously.

truth

Two subsequent posts by @metricconversioin.bsky.social right after Croatia scored a goal against Portugal at the very end of stoppage time.

First post: The World Cup is one of the best things humans have collectively done

Second post, one minute later, after the goal was ruled offsides by VAR because maybe a single hair touched the ball: VAR IS ONE OF THE WORST THINGS WE HAVE COLLECTIVELY DONE

You can buy bags of the fried fish crumbles at LJS?? What?

Amethyst and Steven Universe demanding “the bits” from the French fry stand. They are both short, roundish characters. Amethyst has purple skin and lighter purple long straight hair that covers her left eye. She wears an off the shoulder purple-grey tank over a black tank. The edge of a round purple amethyst can be seen poking out above her tank neckline. Steven looks like a 12 year old white boy, has black curly hair, and wears a red tshirt with a big yellow star in the front.

#RedBeakFeetEyes #BirdOfTheDay An eared grebe. The western, Clark's, eared, and horned grebe all have such bright red eyes with tiny pupils, and always look like they're suspiciously up to something.

An eared grebe with non-breeding plumage paddling around a pond with algae-covered rocks covering the bottom. It is mostly dark grey with some streaks of white, and a white chin and front of neck. It is facing left, and has a gleaming red eye. Its legs are black and have lobed feet sticking out from behind, underwater.

It says a lot that Vance thinks this sign is hideous and stupid. What does he think of all those AI images of his boss being ripped like Schwarzenegger or being made into the image of Jesus? “Black Lives Matter” = “Blah blah blah” “Women’s rights” = “Blah blah blah” “Be kind” = “Blah blah”

A black yard sign with what should be common sense phrases, each in a different bright color. “In this house, we believe: Black Lives Matter; Women’s rights are human rights, No human is illegal, Science is real, Love is love, Kindness is everything.” Our VP hates this sign.

This must be Seattle’s version of LA’s bacon-wrapped hot dog which is also delicious and there are always 100 carts outside of any event building

Set up for the bacon-wrapped hot dog carts that are outside concerts, sporting events, etc. A large baking sheet is on a red metal cart. At one end of the cart, sit 4 condiment bottles. On the baking tray, a row of about 30 cooked stacked bacon-wrapped hotdogs are laid out. Also on the tray are charred green chiles, raw onions and bell peppers, cilantro, and a pile of onions and bell peppers being charred and softened.

I really like the shade of blue used in DR Congo’s flag. (Process blue)

Democratic Republic of Congo’s flag. A sky blue background with a thick red line going from lower left to upper right. On either side of the red line are thinner gold yellow lines. A gold yellow star is in the upper left corner.

#BirdOfTheDay #TheArtOfSurvival (i.e. birds finding food, avoiding predators, enduring weather, or raising young) An Allen's female (probably) on her teeny nest with her teeny eggs. The eggs hatched and the babies fledged all while I was away on vacation!

Facing left, a female hummingbird (either Allen's or Rufous) sits on her teeny cup-like nest made of what looks like grasses, webs, and bits of leaves. The nest is balanced on a broad leaf of a tropical plant of some kind.

End of the month, so out comes @robcrank68.bsky.social's prompt #BestOfJune26 #BirdOfTheDay This might be my favorite picture I've ever taken since starting a year ago.

A great horned owl peering curiously at me through some thick branches forming a triangle.

From Xitter account @MangaMoguraRE: Delinquent manga "CROWS" is getting an ENGLISH RELEASE in Feb 2027 by @KodamaTales. (This is actually crazy!!)

#GreyDay #BirdOfTheDay A Pacific loon with lovely soft-looking non-breeding grey plumage.

A Pacific loon swimming in the Pacific ocean. It's back is dark grey with white spotting. Its neck and head are also a soft dark grey. The chin and front of the neck is white. It has a straight pointed narrow beak, like a dart.

#LittleBrownBirds #BirdOfTheDay I think I used to call these LBJs (little brown jobs) back in the day, but LBB works too (LBJ/LBB = a small brown songbird that didn't sit still long enough for you to ID it) This particular LBB is a song sparrow.

A song sparrow clinging to a dried twig. A small brown bird with a cream chest, heavily streaked in dark brown, and with light and dark brown horizontal stripes on its face. A dried brown teasel is in the pic behind it.

A Chinese appetizer menu with “crab rangoon” misspelled as “crab raccoon.” Under the image of the menu is a photoshopped grey crab with the face of a raccoon.

A day with a new Yotsuba&! volume is a great day (the prior volume came out in 2021. Yotsuba fans have been waiting a looooooong time).

Yotsuba volume 16 by Kiyohiko Azuma. On the cover, a young green haired girl with her hair in four short ponytails like a four leaf clover stands in an autumnal or wintery forest. Yotsuba is wearing a red jacket with pockets and matching red Velcro sneakers, grey pants, a pink backpack, and carrying a blue thermos crossbody. She is standing on two large rocks, and the rocks are surrounded by orange and brown fallen leaves. She looks very happy.

FYI it caught a round stingray

A brown stingray. Its body is a flat circle and it has a thick tail extending from the back instead of the usual whiplike tails most stingrays have. Two dark spots towards the front of the fish are its eyes

#BirdOfTheDay #YourChoice Free-for-all choice today, so I choose this willet running away from the incoming tide.

A willet (a type of medium shorebird) in nonbreeding plumage runs away from an incoming wave on a sandy beach.
