I named this squirrel, Lil Chucky. This squirrel enjoys picking up & chucking things from trees/on the ground - it really likes chucking a lot of stuff around the yards & it's hilarious watching it. I will try to get video of this squirrel in chucking stuff action, whenever I'm faster on camera than squirrel is with stopping chucking action I want to capture, when they see me pointing a camera towards them. They'll go full squirrel cognitive dissonance brain in about 3 weeks when they're going to ignore me more to focus on gathering their Winter food supplies.

"We force animals to adapt to the constraints of farming modelled on the mass production of manufactured goods, whereas farming should respect the ethological needs of animals. This is a transgression because we grant ourselves an absolute right that we do not have. This violence towards animals is a condemnation of us. Yet our relationship with animals could be an opportunity to think about a way of inhabiting the Earth that makes coexistence with other species possible. This requires new foundations for ethics and politics."

“People are very aware that they can’t have standing garbage on their properties,” Oborne says.
“They really understand what you need to do to keep the community safe and keep the #bears safe.”

Well, I liked the king, and as king I respected him — respected the office; at least respected it as much as I was capable of respecting any unearned supremacy; but as MEN I looked down upon him and his nobles — privately. And he and they liked me, and respected my office; but as an animal, without birth or sham title, they looked down upon me — and were not particularly private about it, either. I didn’t charge for my opinion about them, and they didn’t charge for their opinion about me: the account was square, the books balanced, everybody was satisfied.

My favorite restaurant in Germany is almost next to where I live. It is owned by Turks. I regularly order pork schnitzel and beer there.
I do not know how religious the owners are privately. I do not know whether they eat pork or drink alcohol themselves.
But they serve it kindly. Professionally. Without drama. -

“Given the jagged frontier of #AIability, the complexities of #AIadoption, and the limitations of AI, I believe there is still a lot of room for humans to not just use AI, but to use AI to thrive. So, I decided to write a new book: #CoExistence, about how to work with AI that is sometimes, but not always, better than you.
The first question you might ask is how did I work with AI as I wrote this #book? I think the results are pretty indicative of the state of AI today. Sometimes I used AI a lot, sometimes very little, and sometimes I had to let the AI do what it wanted.”

‘It’s our kinship’: can #Australia learn to coexist with #dingoes?
As dingoes vanish from parts of Australia, a new documentary is calling on governments to move away from #eradication and towards solutions that benefit both #farmers and #animals
By Rosamund Brennan, 11 May 2026
Excerpt: "As Takau began looking into dingo laws, she says she found that policy was shaped largely by livestock interests, with little regard for #FirstNations cultural authority. 'There were no Aboriginal people having a say in this animal,' she says.
"In many parts of Australia, dingoes are grouped with 'wild dogs' under biosecurity laws and treated as pests or invasive animals, allowing – and in some places requiring – landholders to kill or exclude them to protect livestock.
"But Takau argues that framing ignores both their cultural significance and their ecological role. 'Dingoes keep Country healthy,' she says; they can control #overgrazing by animals like goats and #kangaroos, and reduce pressure from feral cats and foxes, which prey on #NativeWildlife.
"Through her advocacy, Takau met #AlixLivingstone, founder of #DefendTheWild, and the two began working to centre #Aboriginal voices in #DingoConservation. That work led west, through a #CulturalExchange that brought rangers from #Queensland and northern #NSW together with Aboriginal corporations on WA’s south coast to share dingo monitoring knowledge and cultural stories.
"The film and campaign grew out of that exchange. In February, Moort was screened at WA parliament, where custodians called on the state government to remove dingoes from pest classifications in biosecurity law and phase out 1080 baiting and #strychnine-laced foothold traps, which can cause prolonged, painful deaths.
"Livingstone says the campaign is not about pitting Aboriginal people against farmers but shifting support from killing programs to coexistence measures such as #BetterFencing, #GuardianAnimals and practical help for landholders. 'It’s about finding solutions for farmers that protect their interests but also maintain dingoes in the environment,' she says."

I got this book for free 😃 It's an incredible, fully illustrated, children's book about an old growth tree in an ancient forest & the wildlife, flora & mycelium, which all support each other in the ecosystem.
A Tree in the Ancient Forest by Carol Reed Jones & illustrated with drawings by Christopher Canyon.
A really wonderful, educational book that all ages would enjoy & appreciate. This was a fabulous #FreeBook score 💚 It doesn't fit inside my little free library so I'm gifting it to a nearby community center's children's library 😊

It helps if you know the wildlife that frequently visit your outdoor living spaces too. I'm huge on #coexistence planting because doing that will reduce your weeding & pest control work - nature #biodiversity will take care of many of those issues for you!

My backyard #crow BFF, perched on a big planter pot - 2 feet from my potting station chair. It was doing some preening while I was potting up new food plant seeds 💗❤️💗

I'm going to plant 2-4 hazelnut trees in our backyard this year. Mostly for our backyard squirrels for peaceful #coexistence & dissaude them from busting into my greenhouse to eat my baby plants. I already grow a patch of ground cherries for them in far back of yard. I'll grow a few other food plants for them & the birds & raccoons so they are less inclined to eat from my food gardens.
They(the wildlife) were here first.

#UCDavis - Students Lead #HabitatRestoration at #RussellRanch
Fri, March 20, 2026
"At Russell Ranch, just west of campus along Russell Boulevard, a transformation is underway. What was once grazed #pasture and alfalfa field is becoming a thriving #NativeHabitat led by UC Davis students and funded by #TheGreenInitiativeFund, or #TGIF.
"The Russell Ranch Slough Restoration Project, designed and implemented by the Arboretum and Public Garden’s Learning by Leading™ Ecological Land Management, or #ELM, team, is now at its midpoint. Site preparation is complete, invasive species have been cleared, and nearly 200 native trees and shrubs have been planted along the seasonal slough.
" 'Projects like this show students that restoration isn’t theoretical. It’s something they can design and implement themselves,' said Miles DaPrato, environmental steward for the Arboretum and Public Garden and staff mentor for the ELM team.
"Turning Working Land into #WildlifeHabitat
"The 2.5-acre site sits within the #PutahCreek Riparian Reserve, surrounded by agriculture and rural residences. Rather than separating nature from working landscapes, the project shows how the two can work together — creating habitat while improving the ecological function of the land.
"This past fall, students removed old livestock fencing that blocked #wildlife movement, prepared the soil, and seeded the site with locally adapted #NativeGrasses and #wildflowers timed to the first seasonal rains.
"Over the winter, the team planted nearly 200 native trees and shrubs, including #ValleyOak, #Cottonwood, #Willow, #Elderberry and #Toyon. Temporary drip irrigation has been installed to help the young plants establish during their first critical summers. 'You can study restoration in class, but being out here actually doing the work is completely different,' said Keira Folkers, Environmental Engineering, 2026, and Kayden Delvo, Environmental Science and Management, 2026. 'You start to understand the land, the timing of the seasons and the decisions that go into every step.' "

#Africa - #Coexistence That's Built to Last
"For two decades, African People & Wildlife has partnered with communities across #Tanzania to protect wildlife, restore landscapes, and support sustainable livelihoods. See how this work has grown and where it’s going next.
Landscape Restoration and Connectivity
We lead collective efforts to restore and connect a flourishing mosaic of lands that benefits people, parks, and wildlife while building local #ClimateChange #resilience.
#HabitatLoss and #fragmentation pose one of the greatest threats to the future of Africa’s people and #wildlife. Without urgent action and collaborative partnerships, our most critical landscapes and their natural resources could be lost forever.
Support Local Corridors
We engage communities in the conservation of critical corridors for wildlife and livestock that link protected areas with communal and private lands.
Revitalize #DegradedPastures
The #overgrazing of local pastures can lead to #SoilErosion and inadequate food for wildlife and livestock. Together with local communities, we monitor and manage the long-term health of vital habitats that benefit people and wildlife.
Layer Programming to Maximize Impact
We overlap our rangeland management programming with the observed range of lions, leopards, and cheetahs to ensure the health and connectivity of vital big cat habitat. We also enhance the health of these pastures with an increased beehive presence through our Women's #Beekeeping Initiative.
Leverage Partnerships to Enhance Connectivity
We work with multiple partners – including government authorities – across large landscapes like the #Ngorongoro Conservation Area to identify shared goals and implement joint programming with local community members."

Nationalism is not to be confused with patriotism. Both words are normally used in so vague a way that any definition is liable to be challenged, but one must draw a distinction between them, since two different and even opposing ideas are involved.
By “patriotism” I mean devotion to a particular place and a particular way of life, which one believes to be the best in the world but has no wish to force upon other people. Patriotism is of its nature defensive, both militarily and culturally.
Nationalism, on the other hand, is inseparable from the desire for power. The abiding purpose of every nationalist is to secure more power and more prestige, not for himself but for the nation or other unit in which he has chosen to sink his own individuality.George Orwell (1903-1950) English journalist, essayist, writer [pseud. of Eric Arthur Blair]
