We are so tired of winter here in Kyiv

Crocuses on the grounds of Saint Sophia Cathedral today.

Everybody knows Franz Kafka, but almost no one knows his sister Ottla. She was gassed on arrival at Auschwitz on Oct 7, 1943 after volunteering to escort a group of orphans from the Terezin ghetto so they wouldn’t be afraid.

What are those birds with funky mustaches who live with the penguins?
They are Inca terns, a coastal bird found in Ecuador, Chile, and Peru. Their signature white “mustaches” aren’t just for looks. The length and fullness of these feathers can actually be an indicator of health.

I was briefed Ukraine would crumble.
Four years later, Russia has lost over a million men — and Ukraine still stands.

Ukraine Was Supposed to Fall. Instead, It Rewrote Modern Warfare.
Four years after the full-scale invasion, Ukraine still stands — and the West must decide whether it does too.

The whole sky just exploded in green here in Reykjavík. It was so bright, I didn't even need my flashlight to walk out to my neighborhood beach. It's rare when we get these whole sky engulfing shows.
This season has been something else.

The geese from last month’s emergency rescue are doing well! We are not sure what we’re going to do with them, to be honest. We’re not set up to keep them permanently, but they would have died if we had not taken them from the homestead where they were found.

Good morning. It's freezing cold outside so I'll run a couple of quick errands later and then stay home for the day to work on some crafts and read this evening. Whatever your plans are, I hope you have a wonderful weekend.
