Having a very Darwinian day today.
Well, happy Charles Darwin is “very poorly today & very stupid & hate[s] everybody & everything” to all who celebrate, because he wrote those words in a letter to his friend (and author of Principles of Geology) Charles Lyell 161 years ago today

Pour yourself a cup of ambition. It’s Dolly Parton Day.
It's officially Dolly Parton Day, with parades, pink lights and book drives
Communities worldwide are dedicating Friday to honoring Dolly Parton. The day falls on Sept. 25, a wink at her hit song “9 to 5.”

@ethankocak.com #lizardbluesky I need an ID of a teensy, very fast lizard I rescued from a stairwell at work (South San Francisco, CA) and you're the only herp guy I know. He's been safely returned to his bayside sagebrush habitat.

Good morning to the man at the BART station wearing a pair of boxer briefs on his head (making sure the leg holes were placed precisely over his ears) under a baseball cap. I hope you have a really good day.

#BirdOfTheDay theme is #RedOrDead, red in capture but not on bird or a bird on bare winter branches.
Alt #SummerVisitors Migratory birds associated with summer or favourite bird to capture in summer.
Pretty sure this was a dead branch in summer. But I'm gonna say this Anna's hummingbird counts.

The Alt. #BirdOfTheDay theme is #Speckled any bird with speckled patterns on its plumage.
For this one I hopped in the Wayback Machine for a pic of a friend's falconry Merlin. Such a fun bird to watch fly after quail.

Today's #BirdOfTheDay is #BestOfJuly so no need for an Alt Theme today.
The best birdy thing to happen for me in July. I hatched 10 gorgeous, healthy Japanese quail that I bred myself. The first time I've gone full circle from raising chicks to adults and rebreeding. This one needed an assist.

Today’s #BirdOfTheDay alt theme is #HedgingYourBets, any bird in a hedge or bush. The trick to this one is finding the bird. You're looking for a Lesser Goldfinch, which could have also served yesterday's theme too!
