This is a Northern Shrike, which was a first for me. Notice the hooked upper beak. They are songbirds that eat small rodents, small birds, and insects. They are known for impaling their prey on thorns, barbed wire fences, or anything sharp. This one’s name is Vlad #SideProfiles #BirdOfTheDay

In today’s episode of β€œinsurance companies are the worst”

@bcbsm.bsky.social & Michigan Medicine can’t come to an agreement leaving ~70% of commercially insured Michiganders possibly out of network 7/1.

Their entire goal is to make $ yet are painting a non profit hospital as the villain.
