In addition to the Northern Harrier I chased (see previous post), I also saw other birds at Centennial Beach in Delta, BC.
There were lots of Bald Eagles. At one point over a dozen were soaring high together.
I heard these Killdeer before I spotted them.
Golden-crowned Sparrow
Spotted Towhee
I followed and watched this Northern Harrier for about an hour at Centennial Beach in Delta, BC, this morning. I’ve got a sore neck and back, but got a few decent photos out of the near 200 that I shot of this raptor!
Russian leaders are becoming increasingly unhinged.
Medvedev has threatened “nuclear retaliation” on Europe and the West if Russia returns to its 1991 borders.
In other words, he is saying that if the Russian dictatorship is forced to live within its borders, and stop invading other countries, it’s going to unleash the nukes.
It’s fascinating, but scary, at how afraid Russia’s oligarchy is of freedom and democracy.
At how Russia’s oligarchy can think of nothing but empire.
At how Russia’s oligarchy is still flogging the “Nazis in Ukraine” line, when it was the oligarchy’s fave leader Stalin who signed a pact with Hitler and Nazi Germany.
Do not fall for Russian propaganda. They are experts at it. Have been for centuries.
The oligarchs want to keep their mansions and billions. It’s not politics, it’s lust.
