So grateful to have this scenery close to home! After yesterday's big rain everything is so green! Also had a special day with family we see less often than we'd like. 🥰

Yay, congratulations!

So tiny! Do you know what kind it is?

Compounding the problem, scientists who do ask questions and come to anti-narrative conclusions find it very hard to get their results published.

I like @btcmelody 's suggestion for substack. I have a running blog (that I'll share here when I have a bit more content and get into a rhythm of posting regularly), and have thought about moving it there. Substack allows anyone to read but you can create subscriber-only content (pretty sure), and similar to nostr it encourages quality content bc the revenue is all subs based, not ads based.

Have you checked out all the standard email marketing providers and found them not to your liking? Not sure what all their requirements are, but constant contact, myemma, and mailchimp are a few of the biggies. There are so many.

Crayfish?

Yikes! Sounds challenging for getting your growing season off the ground.

I'm originally from the midwest and spent many summer vacations in MI. Miss that place. ❤

Not a fabulous photo... but demonstrates why, if you can, it's helpful to nature to let dead trees stand. There is a Northern Flicker poking its head out of a hole near the top, and I've seen a pair flitting back and forth. It must be a nest!

Great question! So important to recognize how we think about our environment - as resources, sources of beauty, dangers, etc etc. I saw another answer which influenced mine, but I see habitat and firewood...and a mountain biking obstacle, haha.

Fern forest! 😃 They grow up so fast...just a week ago it was all fiddleheads. Idk why ferns make me so happy, but I'll take it! Saw these on a morning trail run in our local park. I like running this path throughout the year and watching all the changes. 😊 #plantstr #runstr #zapathon

(Sorry if you're seeing this twice - I forgot #grownostr the first time!)

Wow, that's more snow than we got all winter, haha. We did take a winter vacation and got some great snow for ⛷. Treated to this view on one of our days off.

Looking for book recommendations about the Enlightenment. I feel like lots of people are talking about the decline of Enlightenment values and classical liberal values, and I wish I knew more about that period in history. Any suggestions? #nostrbooks #liberty

I love eating microgreens, but I feel like I would struggle to grow them because I would feel like I was preventing the plant from reaching its full potential, lol. Like, these few leaves could have been a whole head of broccoli! You know? How do you think about that and make them cost effective?

Ooh, pretty! Do you know how I can find out where I'm allowed to forage? Are public lands fair game, or maybe it depends?

Thank you! It's amazing how many different things people may think of when they hear "forest." There is no shortage of beauty and variety on Earth! 😊

I know...it's just a powerline right-of-way. But I love how the morning mist settles in the valley. And look at all those mayapple plants! 😊 #grownostr #runstr #simplepleasures

Thanks for sharing your beautiful scenery!

GM nostriches! Thankful I can frequently start my day with a trot through the woods. Have a good one, everybody!
