My #HeadShots for #BirdOfTheDay Mallard looking at the camera (the photo in my profile)

Latest England biodiversity stats are flashing red www.gov.uk/government/s... Many birds and butterflies considered to be in "deteriorating" state Bats one of the few bright spots, see story here for more: www.thetimes.com/uk/environme...

The Senate passed the Murder Budget on the day the prez opened our first new concentration camp. July 4 should be a national day of mourning & of action to support & protect the vulnerable in our communities. @warren.senate.gov @markey.senate.gov @whitehouse.senate.gov @sanders.senate.gov

1/6 Today, Jared Kushner spoke via @euronews.com Albania about the sprawling luxury resort he plans to build on the Vjosa-Narta Protected Area, key habitat for millions of migratory birds & other wildlife. His greenwashing of the project is unconscionable.

6/6 Please share my story and, when it's published, the petition, which I will also post here on BlueSky. Please help protect one of the Mediterraneans' last unexploited river deltas and its extraordinary wild creatures. Thank you so much. www.nytimes.com/2025/04/23/t...

500 or so energized people turned out for an Indivisible rally at First Parish Church in Concord, MA, this morning, featuring Leah Greenberg, local leaders, & enthusiastic musicians. A few photos. @maddow.msnbc.com

Good turnout with high energy for #StandupforScience in Boston. Sharing two fun signs: an addition to the periodic table and a case for investing in parasite research. The crowd was younger & more diverse than the 50501 rallies & included calls for our leading universities & hospitals to speak up.

I spent 30 yrs in nonprofit conservation orgs & worked with EPA & all the natural resource agencies. Federal staff are dedicated, valuable experts & partners, who don’t deserve the cruelty inflicted by this administration. For them & all the targeted communities, we need to fight the bastards.
