I’m heading up to our kid’s camp today through Weed, CA and every time I pass through I think of the town founded by a Maine Union soldier who survived fighting the Confederacy, and later used by Steinbeck as the town George and Lenny left in the opening chapter.

I get angry when people talk about "declining trust in science" as though there weren't a coordinated effort by billionaire criminals to smear science as a way to decrease regulations, spread propaganda, and enrich themselves. Scientists are being scapegoated and we should not play along.

It’s been a while since I went wandering around with the bird apparatus, this morning I took it down to the river looking for Orioles. The Bullocks are thick and love hanging out way up in the cottonwoods and mature oaks. I got lucky and found their nest! 😀
