  1. Will be on hummingbirds for a while. They are a fascinating, specialized family of birds (Family Trochiidae) with 15 species in North America and 363! species overall in the Americas and Caribbean - many with very narrow ranges. 112 overall genera, again, many highly restricted, and a huge range in size from the Bee Hummingbird - the smallest bird in the world weighing in at 2 grams, to the largest the Giant Hummingbird of Patagonia, weighing in at up to 22 grams.

    The US is dominated by 2 species - Ruby-throated in the east and Black-Chinned in the West and SW. Both are in the Genus Archilochus.

    I have always been fascinated with them from the long ago till now - they bring joy; and the study necessary to understand them keeps me away from the news.

  6. Asha Bhosle died at 92. She gave voice to thousands of Bollywood songs over eight decades. The industry is full of nepotism and corruption. This anti human behavior blocks true talent. We need change now. #AshaBhosle #EndNepotism #StopCorruption nytimes.com/2026/04/12/world/a

  7. Ignoring science and hiding data is not policy, it is negligence. When health decisions follow ideology, people pay the price. This is corruption in plain sight. Public trust is being destroyed for politics. #PublicHealth #Accountability #ScienceMatters #StopCorruption

  8. People are tired of councils run for profit, not for the public. Corruption, huge salaries for officials, and deals with private firms drain community wealth. Local government must serve people, not corporate greed. Accountability must return.
