I woke up Monday and while lying on my bed during my waking moments, looked up through my bedroom window to see this.

Odd, that it suddenly occurred to me that I hadn't seen a 🌴 palm tree in six years.

I'm finally back home in #SuperSunnySouthernCalifornia 🌄

This pic, I took just a few minutes ago on the balcony. To the west is Catalina Island, outside my other bedroom window.

Let the summer begin!

Any weekend that involves not one, but 2 farmer's markets, a baseball game, a delicious meal at a Michelin star restaurant and an ice cream cone shaped like a fish - all with my favorite person in the world (my daughter) - represents one dang good #weekend !

Two garden beds, one with collards, in the foreground, and a mature herb/mixed shrub garden in the background. A wall borders both which has the words Alma Backyard Farms.

Twe hands hold up a softserve ice cream cone. The ice cream is swirled green and white and had a small red cookie on the side. The cone is in the shape of a fish. The background is a shopping center parking lot.

Just moved to #chicago this month because my wife got a great job offer.

I've never lived outside #socal and I'm already missing my hacker friends at #IrvineUnderground

Any hacker/infosec meetups near the loop that are active? burbsec seems good but far away and chisec hasn't updated in a year.

Also would love any tips from locals for a young family living downtown.... like how to prepare for winter. My DMs are open (I think?)

Saw these two spreading their wings as I was riding out of our neighborhood this morning. Had no idea why they were just spreading their wings like that, so I looked it up and learned something.

In the early mornings, vultures often will sit with their wings spread wide, increasing the surface area of their bodies so that the sun can more easily warm them. This is called the “horaltic pose”.

Two vultures in a tree, both spreading their wings

🏗️ 🦆 "In spring 2021, unauthorized operators crashed two drones in a patch of protected estuarial #wetlands near Southern California’s #port complex where elegant terns were nesting on sandy soil. Thousands of spooked terns abandoned their nests and scattered. Some resettled on a barge carting rocks off shore. When the terns began to hatch on the barge later that summer, many chicks taking exploratory steps tumbled off its steep sides into the water..."
