A lullaby I wrote a few years back. I haven't been able to get a version in the studio that I liked but this late night version was ok ;) #music #youtube #musicsky #originalmusic #songs #iwishIknewAgoodTag youtu.be/ZC_Ud4nmMqU?...

Fall color

If eagles fans can accept losing, so should I

I've been checking in but have been offline much of the summer. New album is almost done. Life happens. Here's some of my favorite images from the summer. #birds #gardening #mycology #mushrooms #nativeplants #lizards #insects #moon #photography

I saw this fella from 25 feet away because its eyes were glowing in my headlamp. A wolf spider I think. #spiders #bugs

This guy... #bugs

old girl still got it. #pitbulls

Spring

Christmas cactus petals

Mid-weekly reminder: If you plan to release new singles or albums, or hold an online event (listening parties, concerts, etc) NEXT WEEK, April 6th to April 12th, tell me about it! I'm putting this list together every SUNDAY evening. Artists, bands and labels of all genres are welcome! 👍

@ahpod.bsky.social are you still over here? You're still the only thing I miss on shitter. I wish that dickhead would sell the thing so I could go back :/

It's drum day! Despite my background being drumming, this is always the hardest day for some reason. We build a bastard super kit from all my favorites. Gretch toms, my dw kick and snare, and every cymbal on deck ;)

Updated with 19 additional bands and solo artists! 👍

Question for nerds: I need to upgrade my storage solution here, I've got a half dozen computers, a 50mp camera, dozens of video and audio projects, texture heavy 3d models... I need SPACE and I need macs, PCs, and linux machines to all have fast access. Obviously some sort of NAS is required. Hints?

My favorite bird song comes outta this Lil fella.

I got to spend time with this cute lil fella today who was living in the burrow of someone he ate and using their fur as furniture.(look it up) He was very curious! #wildlife #photography #ermine #stoat #nature

Loopin is loopin

Erm, why does my profile say "invalid handle?" Am I still here? It's been quiet

Latest read, I try to alternate fiction and non. The bomber Mafia tells a story of lofty idealism that wasn't cutting it, leading to stunningly tragic events.

"A Siberian orchestra.... But they're trans" Might be the funniest thing I ever read on the internet. I wish I remembered who said it, but it wasn't me.

Ran the skidsteer through the paces with our first snow so I'll be ready for more. Me: old girl's running great! Skidsteer:

Without getting into detail, I just said about a writer of a television show "they totally Melinda Snodgrass'd it!" (a good thing) Congrats, @melindas.bsky.social you're officially a verb :D

I'm lucky enough to live near the amazing J. Milton Beens, a (modified) impressionist painter based in Durango, Colorado. His work oozes the natural beauty of the four corners and his command of light is almost unsettling (and he's doing free shipping from now till Christmas!) miltbeens.com

I've always really enjoyed the TNG episode "Deja Q" it is increasingly making a case for one of the best ever. @melindas.bsky.social did you have a hand in some of those lines? The "you have achieved in disgrace what I have always aspired to be" seemed like something you'd say :)

Stopped in my tracks once again. Momentum = gone. Morale = sapped. I'd tag apple but they're not even here. Grrrrrr

The best part about quitting Bluesky was that I already quit twitter. Bluesky was my gateway drug for quitting the internet.

Just watched Edward Scissorhands for the first time since the theater and 35 years later it can still ugly cry me

I'm designing a tipjar functionality for my website because jeeeze, @secondlife.bsky.social charges their fee to turn my Linden$ into dollars but then Tilia takes another 5% just to get that dollar amount to my paypal account. That's 8.5% by my reckoning. Too much, guys. #secondlife

Mama going to lay some eggs?

Dr. Jane Goodall filmed an interview with Netflix in March 2025 that she understood would only be released after her death.

This "stage" was in the middle of a dark curtain of rain from a large thunderstorm. It was downright wild looking! #storms #sky

Nothing on earth beats zooming through the woods at night with a full moon. #cycling #mtb

Hell yeah, super productive work session in my extremely limited time, I just need to finish this one last th..... @poguemahon.bsky.social #neverforget

Your housecat killing birds is not "nature," it is destruction of nature. Housecats belong inside.

Lesser goldfinch (Spinus psaltria) are the cutest lil things ever. They're not a lot bigger than our broad-tailed hummingbirds. #birds #birdphotography

Our prolonged drought has made gardening a challenge this year so I stayed small, but did manage some nice chiles. This one is called "super chili" and it's mostly an ornamental but the peppers are like the lil mean bastards you find in general tsos chicken.

Truck not found.

Wildfires are stressful but they sure make pretty sunsets.

Fitness should be part of school and should be something children are taught for both physical and mental health, but the most unfit president of all time pushing it is duhhhhhhh

These a-holes have been waking me up at first light every day this summer. #birds

I love the last day of the Tour de France, it's like a big giant buddy ride with a crazy sprint at the end.

Well... South Park didn't miss.

This is either Paradejeania rutilioides or Adejeania vexatrix, can't say because I'm a plant guy not a bug guy. The flowers? I dunno some kinda onion :D Any bug folks want to weigh in? This was SW Colorado. #bugs #photography
