It's so nice that President Musk allowed Donald to sit at the Resolute Desk in the Oval Office and keep an eye on his toddler while he conducted his press conference.

Hearing a rumor that Trump has obtained a copyright for the phrase "Arbeit macht frei". Just saying...😳

Does anyone know if we have any working guillotines around? If not, how soon can a few be designed and built? Also, what are the average heights of Washington, DC lamposts and how much rope is needed to hang something from them? Asking for a friend...

I was going to avoid posting anything political today, but this fucking Nazi giving a fucking Nazi salute goes way beyond everyday politics. 😡 And CNN, you know there is no official government agency called the "Department of Government Efficiency", right? 😕

I heard today is #MonochromeMonday so here's something colorless. The Eiger, Switzerland. #Photography #Mountain #Switzerland

Focusing on beauty and nature today rather than the circus in Washington DC. Watkins Glen State Park, New York #Waterfall #Photography #Nature

Anyone know whatever happened to that JD Vance fellow? Wasn't he supposed to be the backup in case Trump stroked out or choked on a Big Mac? Was he even invited to the Inauguration?

Yeah.

It's not easy being green.

If Merrick Garland does one thing right during his tenure as Attorney General, it will be to release the complete report of the Special Counsel's investigation into Donald Trump's actions, up to and including the January 6 Insurrection. Anything else is cowardice and incompetence. 😠

Not all my photography is birds. #Photography #Nature #WhiteTail

Anyone like raptors? This Sharp-shinned Hawk has a definite "don't mess with me" attitude! Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, USA #Photography #Birds #Hawks #Nature

One of my oldest photos, scanned from a Kodachrome slide. Taken with an Olympus XA pocket 35mm camera. Canadian Rockies (somewhere near Jasper?), August 1994. #Photography #Mountains #Lakes #Canada

Do these feathers make my ass look big? 🤪 Green Heron, Wildwood Lake, Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, USA #Photography #Nature #Birds

Is it sculpture or strange engineering? Probably both! Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden, Washington, DC #Photography #Smithsonian #Sculpture #BlackAndWhite

Did someone say #WaterFallWednesday? Watkins Glen, New York, USA

Sometimes sharpness in a photo isn't that important. Canada Geese, Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, USA #Photography #Nature #Birds

An iconic view but still a pleasure. The "Chapel Bridge" in Luzern, Switzerland. It's a good example of the Swiss passion for hanging flower planters on every available windowsill! 🥰 #Photography #Switzerland

I just heard that today is #WaterfallWednesday, so here's a waterfall Watkins Glen State Park, New York, USA

Reflections of the Bernese Alps, Switzerland. The north face of the Eiger is reflected in a small lake, a short walk above the rail station at Kleine Scheidegg. #Photography #Switzerland

This needs to be said, loud, and often.

Olten (Canton Solothurn). Aare River in foreground. One of my favorite small cities in Switzerland. Except for the modern skyscraper in the background, it probably didn't look much different 200-300 years ago. #Photography #Switzerland

Starting to look like winter around here! #Photography #Nature #Ice

Good morning, Bluesky people! #Photography #Landscape #BlueSky

Does anyone know whatever happened to that JD guy that was hanging around with Trump during the campaign? Some kind of hillbilly, I believe? 😕

BREAKING: House Speaker Mike Johnson announces that male Republicans neutered by Donald Trump may continue to use the men's bathrooms.

Sigh...it seems the Crypto Bros and the attractive, single, female bots have arrived on Bluesky. Build it and they will come. 😠

Interesting...now that Matt Gaetz has withdrawn his nomination for Attorney General (obviously to suppress the reports of his sex trafficking and statutory rape), will he be returning to the House of Representatives in January (since he was re-elected before he resigned)?

I'm trying not to focus on the ongoing political shitstorm here in the US, so I'm choosing to focus on some nice pictures. Monument Valley Navajo Tribal Park, Arizona, USA

One of my favorite little brown birds...the Carolina Wren. Tiny but LOUD! #Photography #Birds #Nature

Any photographers out there? Here's something from last year at Mesa Verde National Park, Colorado, USA.
