He also said he'd have details about his healthcare plan in 2 weeks. That was like 10 years ago.

Definitely looks like a juvenile Incilius. The one I'm looking for around my place is I. coniferus...they're in the area but I still haven't seen any at my place. I have more than enough cane toads, however.

Hey Mike....I see those pale blotches on A. callidryas from time to time at my place too. I don't think it's a normal coloration or morph...I get the feeling it might be a response to something.

Cat-Eyed Snake eating an unfortunate Gliding Leaf Frog right outside my door last night.

A three-toed sloth was in a cecropia tree right above my porch this morning. I took these shots with the Sony A7Cii and the Sony 200-600mm zoom. He was around the house today for quite a while but I only got a few clear looks at him.

Do you mean Kamala Harris?

and what do you mean by "what he said he'd do"? let putin "do whatever the hell he wants" to our european allies? go after his political opponents? free the J6 goons who carried out his coup? get in destructive trade wars with our allies?

i think he's doing it all.

when you look at this, it's hard not to ask yourself how the orange one actually won the state a few months ago.

Probably the most photographed frog in the world. Red-eyed tree frog just outside my house.

Happiest of birthdays, my friend. I'm so glad to have come to know you, if even only online. Keep on rockin'!

A small price to pay for a lifetime (the dog's) of unconditional love and loyalty. i have adopted a good number dogs (all rescues except for a couple) and when one has died i always think back on his/her life and feel that they had done much more for me than i had done for them. Carrots for Mika!

WTF is going on? This is what the MAGA movement is at its core.

The KKK was founded, not by a political party, but by a small group of former officers of the Confederate Army. Who's waving the rebel flag nowadays, dum-dum? Answer: The same people you're simping for.

You probably should take your dumb arguments back to Xitter and 4chan.

Sometimes I ask fellow Christians what in the Bible would back up Trumpโ€ฆ his hate and division. They bring up when Jesus showed anger and flipped the money changer tables.

They miss the point, he was angry they were perverting the temple, which is what Christian MAGA is doing to the church
