Explored a local 18th century graveyard yesterday. This memorial marker would have been for individuals interred here in the mid to late 1700s. #lehighvalley

The fish crows and the American crows appear to be a big, happy, cooperative group. 🖤 This is my second year living in fish crow territory and I’m paying more attention this time.
So…if I gently flush them out from hiding & drop a beach towel over them, I can scoop the whole thing up and carry it outside for release. Is what I’m thinking. Now I just have to muster up some gumption.

Dozens and dozens of fish crows in the trees and sky above. They’re very chatty & have much to catch up on at the end of the day. 🖤

I worked in the protein lab at Orasure for two years, growing & testing Ebola antigens & antibodies for these tests. I loved the science but not the focus on profit.

Interesting. I’ve used the ATM there in Musikfests past. The building looks like a mausoleum for cash.

I will check this out. I’m sure it’s more “natural wonder” and less “something mysterious”. That’s ok, I’m a fan of both. #folklore #appalachia

I can kind of see the mountain today, so that’s nice. Yesterday it was invisible. 😶🌫️
When a loved one passes, I tell the wild bees, the trees, the winds, & the waters. I also place a lock of my hair in the coffin, so a piece of me is always with them. (After my husband passed, I chopped off my waist-length hair to chin-length & it all went with him.) #folkwitchfriday
