  2. I've seen lots of turkeys in #stpaul but mostly around Summit Hill a few blocks from Dale and Selby. They've moved closer to us, now -- this at Saint Clair and Cretin.

    Personally, I would take more turkeys for fewer rabbits. The rabbit population around here is just bonkers. When I do my morning walks, most yards will have one to three rabbits just sitting there. You see them all day, too.
    Writing that, it makes me think we could use some urban foxes. Years back there was a family of foxes whose den was literally under the State Capitol in Madison -- foxes can and do live in urban areas.

    ...which makes me wonder: why don't you see more of them? It seems like basic predator-prey population dynamics. Think of the classic Lotke-Volterra model. A few foxes could make their way into the urban area here, feast like kings, and reproduce like...er...rabbits.

  3. Here’s a pic of the baby before I started recording video. Very close. Just staring at me. Not moving at all.

  4. Had a deer try to lead me away from her fawn this afternoon. She stopped in the middle of the trail and just looked back at me. When I stopped and looked around, I saw the younger one looking directly at me and about twice as close as the mama.

  7. Very interesting idea for I-94 in the Twin Cities: make it into a subway!

    streets.mn/2026/04/28/half-the

    As someone who lives in between the downtowns, this would be awesome. Covering the I-94 trench would fill in and connect the "south of the interstate" and "north of the interstate" neighborhoods, making it easier to get around this area, and with a stop on Snelling, would make it easy for us to get to either downtown very fast.

    It does seem like this is a hopeless dream; I really don't see MnDOT taking this seriously -- but lots of ideas like this seem impossible until they aren't. And the reasoning seems sound: you want underground rail via cut-and-cover -- and we already have the "cut", which makes it cheaper.

    I'm not so sure about the article's claim of 16 minutes from downtown to downtown -- that's an average speed around 40 miles per hour, which seems ambitious if you stop, say, twice. But even at 20-25 minutes, that would be nice.

  8. RE: flipboard.com/@sahanjournal/sa

    "The analysis revealed some troubling trends: of the children who were detained, nearly two dozen were held in custody for more than 20 days, in violation of a longstanding legal settlement. Teens who were detained alone were sent to Christian youth shelters in Michigan, which made it hard for their families to find them. And nearly half of the children detained have since left the country."

  11. Dome with a View

    I stopped halfway across the Millennium Bridge and pointed the camera north, which turned out to be the same thing roughly nine thousand other people were doing that afternoon. I looked behind me and there was another group of tour...

  12. Best musical inspiration from St Paul rally March 38: Joan Baez and the Resistance Choir with Maggie Rogers and Tom Morello singing “ain’t gonna let nobody turn me ‘round.” The choir including kids, and instruments, especially horns, was fantastic. They used various noun replacements for nobody, including President, king, liar, and one man sang in Spanish, using “migra.” Slide to one hour in on Part2 of St Paul No Kings rally

  13. Ich habe die USA aufgegeben. Aber die Hoffnung noch nicht! (3sat-Kulturzeit am 30.03.2026)

    Das Wort „Aufgeben“ hat einen dramatischen Klang. Und viele Menschen, die ich sehr gut kenne, und die das Land vielleicht sogar viel besser kennen müssten, als ich, benutzen es fortwährend. Immer im Zusammenhang mit dem 45. & 47. Präsidenten, der Bewegung, die er hinter sich herzieht und den dramatischen Beschädigungen an Demokratie und Gesellschaft die er dabei hinterlässt. Es ist nicht so, dass ich es nicht verstehe. Auch ich habe die U.S.A. aufgegeben. Aber die Menschen dort, noch nicht. Die sind mein einziger Grund, noch Hoffnung zu haben. (@3sat)

  14. Okay look everyone. Yes you 👀
    #StPaul and #Minneapolis are not the same city so get it straight.

    You don't get to talk about St Paul like it's basically just a suburb of Minneapolis or something.
    It is but only we get to say that.*
