Very cute, but unfortunately this is an AI generated video. Note the distorted wings when extended and body ratio is off - also the habitat is not what Mountain Bluebirds prefer.

Here is some Canadian Trivia:
1) For every person in Canada, there are approx 9,000 trees.
2) Canada's boreal zone spans roughly 1.3 billion acres or approx. 55% to 58% of Canada's total landmass.
3) 70% of Canada's boreal forest zone has no road access, remaining as pristine, intact wilderness.

i mean, it kind of is a black-and-white answer
KLOBUCHAR: Do you agree that it's unacceptable for federal agents to forcibly enter someone's home without a warrant and drag them onto the street without checking that they even have the right person?

BLANCHE: Well, it depends on the circumstances. It's not a black and white answer

Crime, corruption. Evil people with money and power. I am so tired of it all.

The past ten years have been exhausting. Is this the upside down? Did Covid eat brains? What is happening here?

Our lovely park here in Whitecourt is well visited. This is the fishing pond for the kids. There is a water splash park, lazy river, play area, fields for games. These kids were catching crayfish. Someone has been introducing them to the trout pond. #FestivalPark #Whitecourt #Alberta

Here's your morning dose of cuteness. These fox kits had so much energy as they ripped around the hillside just before bedtime. For mom's sake, I hope they tuckered themselves out! #wildlife #foxes

We bought some Asparagus at the local No Frills store that was very good.

Jeffries Bros - Product of Manitoba, Canada.

Pictured here is half of it. This only needed a bit of a trim. LIttle waste.

We are buying Canadian where we can.

I enjoy taking pictures. My pictures are just pictures so that I can have a good look at what it was that I saw.

My little camera is old. A PowerShot SX620 HS. I have a walking stick that doubles as a monopod.

So my pictures aren't great. Cropped & a bit fuzzy. #birds #nature
