One of my favorite childhood memories is my dad taking me for a walk in the early morning down a lightly used dirt road, more of a path, to a beaver dam, and a mama partridge led five or six chicks across the way in front of us.
Another time I heard partridges drumming, several of them, and it is quite a sound, especially if you don't know what the sound is, I was a boy, and had never heard of it, and was walking alone in the woods, and I thought it was people banging drums. Ran home. My dad got a pretty good laugh out of that one.
Employees in the public sector are often considered to be reliable Democrat voters. You want to see what happens when that vote is no longer 'reliable'?
"...Washington just became the first state in U.S. history to terminate a public employee pension plan. ..."
The stark color and shape contrast of Althouse against nature is stunningly iconic. Medieval, Handmades Tale-ish. Darth Vlogger: "I find your lack of faith disturbing."

I guess they were ruffed grouse, but we called them partridges.
She packing a light saber under that cloak?

Love it. Those birds are working overtime.
A lone figure set loose on a wild, untamed continent.

Sci-fi thriller like The Fly, but with a bald eagle-human hybrid?

Gone goth
Nothing clever to say...it's just a gorgeous sunrise video.
Great photo of Ann on the path. I want to frame that.
Pic looks like Althouse expecting un-masked passer by
