@explorewilder I just checked out your website and it's really impressive! I love the design and how you've integrated journal entries and GPS tracks.
Flora, fauna, and fungi on the Oregon coast.

My favorite kind of day at the coast: rainy off and on with sunny breaks and gorgeous skies.

From last summer: a sleepy owl watching as I ate lunch at a picnic table under its tree.
I'm really fond of flickers. Here's a cute one resting on a branch last spring.

If passed, this bill could fulfill a long-standing dream of U.S. law enforcement: the end of private, encrypted messaging on the Internet. https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2020/03/earn-it-bill-new-path-doj-finally-break-encryption

There is no evidence that surveilling students will lead to better safety outcomes. Instead, the few studies that exist show that visible surveillance decreases students’ perceptions of safety, equity, and support. https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2020/02/schools-are-pushing-boundaries-surveillance-technologies

Took a few macros in our yard this evening. Enjoying the cool sunny weather while it lasts.

There are many forest fires in Mexico at the moment, which is why Mexico City is in a pollution contingency plan. The fires are concentrated in avocado-growing regions: people are illegally burning down forest to turn it into avocado monocultures, and taking advantage of a loophole in land-use laws: https://www.sinembargo.mx/16-05-2019/3581975
The article says those avocados get exported to Japan, Canada, and Europe.
So if you live there, maybe try to eat something else?
