A home to friendly weirdos. The Grey Gardens of the Fediverse (but beige). Occasionally graphically cacographic. Definitely probably not a cult (though you'll never be 100% sure). Beige-bless 🙏

I really like Wildlife Photographer of the Year. For anyone who hasn't seen them, here are some of the images...

This dreamy image of a polar bear drifting to sleep on a ‘bed’ carved into an iceberg has been voted the winner of the Wildlife Photographer of the Year People’s Choice Award (WPY). It was taken by British amateur photographer Nima Sarikhani while exploring Norway’s Svalbard archipelago on an expedition ship.
Highly commended 'Starling Murmuration' by Daniel Dencescu shows a mesmerising mass of starlings swirling into the shape of a giant bird on their way to communal roosts above Rome, Italy.
Mark Boyd's highly commended 'Shared Parenting' photo shows a pair of lionesses devotedly grooming a cub in Kenya's Maasai Mara.
'The Happy Turtle', by finalist Tzahi Finkelstein from Israel, shows a Balkan pond turtle sharing a moment of fascinating peaceful coexistence with a northern banded groundling dragonfly in Israel's Jezreel Valley.

I've muted this now, but happy so many of you enjoyed them. Some people have kindly linked to the relevant site(s) and provided better descriptions. 🙂

The trained starlings are good. Are there any starling trainers available for home visits? I have some unruly little feckers that just do scruffy mermerations.

@TheBreadmonkey Beautiful photos, thanks for sharing.
The bear photo is very sad, hopefully that will wake up some people to be more aware about climate crisis.

We can only hope so. In my opinion, many of the pictures in the Wildlife Photographer of the Year competitions show how fragile nature and the planet have become.

Cant tell if relationship goals are the lionesses or the turtle and dragonfly
