I found a class jar that had once been a centerpiece at a wedding. Born again as a cloche. Also gave the lettuce a name.

Well done!
If it gets warmish, pull that hat off and replace just before sundown if you know the temps will dip to near freezing.
Please pardon my being pushy, but some water and then some mulch would definitely be a help.
Good luck!

Bad Day indeed. For some reason, Criterion Channel video signal changed tonight, could be my TV but no other streams affected.
It took me a bit to figure it out

Saw this group helping barn owls promoted during an episode of Escape to the Country that was filmed in Shropshire:

One of the reasons barn owls are losing places to nest happens to be barn conversions, so of course they showed one to the couple searching for a new home…

Every year my father sends me evangelical Christmas cards, usually in support of some Christian youth organization. This year’s is just spectacular. A snow golem pleading to God for release from its abominable, cursed existence. This is begging for fanfic.
Unfortunately, the interior doesn’t expand upon what it does when it reaches the sleepy, unsuspecting village below…
ETA: I only just noticed his cardinal familiar. So much!

Frosty’s planning to kill himself by warming his head and neck, then rolling down – his corpse gaining size on the way – to crush the town in a horrific murder-suicide. As the slow drip-drip-drip of liquid heat-death approaches, he beseeches the heavens for one last sign, one ray of hope to avert his demise and that of the sleeping villagers below. But the icy blue star is silent. The cardinal whispers, “See you on the other side”, then flies off to his cozy nest and family. The End.
ETA: I’m not normally this dark. I just saw the cap and scarf and ran with that

Seeing those photos my thoughts went straight to this little story.
I think it’s relevant but almost certainly won’t help reduce fear levels.
Although Neil reads beautifully and very soothingly so there is that.

Fantastic bald-eagle spot we found today on a Sunday drive in the Boonslick area. We saw three males and at least one female in this single location.
ENHANCE!

Went out on a little photo shoot around town yesterday. There’s talk they are tearing down this area to build housing (which is great - not that they’re tearing it down, but that we’ll have more housing) so I wanted to record this cool old stack:
And I also came across this photo from a restroom door at a craft brewery in VT from the “before times”
