This evening I thought I would share a cool experience I just had 🤗. I was outside, playing with my dogs, and this itty-bitty owl flew across the yard and landed on a corner fence post! I slowly approached so I could take some photos and video, and the little guy actually let me get pretty close. I stopped at about 10-15ft away, took some pics, and just talked and trilled to them. (Yup, I'm that gal lol). They actually trilled back once (cutest noise ever 🥺🫶) and stayed for a few minutes before taking off into the night. Happy hunting, little buddy. Stay safe!



P.S. anybody know which species this is? I'm in Albuquerque, New Mexico, and I would guess this little one wasn't more than 8-10" tall 🤔.

60+ people showed up at 8 am to reinforce UA-UNM (faculty/teachers union) as they go back into bargaining talks with administration negotiators

Right now, part-time adjunct faculty only make the equivalent of $39K/year, and UNM management is pushing to limit basic workplace rights incl. giving management the power to discipline people for free speech outside the classroom and full control over class loads

Northern Lights easily visible to the naked eye from Albuquerque, New Mexico! I thought the Sandias were named for the pink appearance of the mountains, not the sky...

Man is kidnapped from a Walmart, by masked people wearing DHS-marked clothing in Bernalillo County #NewMexico. Video at https://bsky.app/profile/thejenniwren.teamlh.social/post/3lthldraxms2a. I believe this is a Walmart between #Albuquerque and #SantaFe. Tough to watch, but we must bear witness.

This sort of awfulness is happening in many states. It is why I’m so active in fighting fascism in mine. If you haven’t yet, I highly recommend getting involved in your local Indivisible group. Find it at https://indivisible.org/groups.
