Tangled-wires is a common problem in our "civilised" world, but never a concern in the wilderness:
'You step barefoot on a giant centipede, it's gonna bite you; no half-hearted apologies, no messing around!'
I always love to see bluebirds at my feeder. I don’t even have to provide mealworms; they readily eat my NoMess seed. The pinks in the background are leaves on a neighbor's tree across the street.
EDIT, 11/13/18: This photo has so far gotten 185 Likes and Loves on Facebook, the most ever (I think) for one of my photos there.

An adult mix of faux glitter in silver, gold & red sparkly stars on ecru for no-mess table wear and decorations - because I hate cleaning up loose glitter and I figure others might feel the same.

± | june 08 world ocean day
Chance to highlight some wonderful work that a dear friend - Tierney Thys - has been doing with sun fish over at Sea Studios in Pacific Grove, California.
Often it is the little choices we make on a daily basis that can make the biggest impact, so by tweaking the small stuff, we can help make a difference to the big stuff!
No hacking up dolphins movie from me this year, just a gentle nudge, and some raising awareness to hopefully inspire a wee bit of change in all of us.
And if all this is a little serious, there is also a funky little site that has a bunch of apps for creative ways to explore and promote and teach and learn about the oceans.
Happy World Ocean Day! :o)
I don’t have any Eastern bluebird nests on my .3-acre property, but they sure do know where to come for food (Wild Birds Unlimited’s NoMess seed), even though this father seems to be ignoring his young ‘un.

Because the squirrels were eating me out of house and expensive birdseed* from the tray feeder at my office window, I very reluctantly replaced it with a medium-sized squirrel-proof feeder. Watching the antics of a squirrel trying to get to the seed it just loves and must have, must have, must have! was amusing yesterday. But because I also bought a pole and arm set-up that keeps the feeder 16" away from the squirrel's reach, it could not stretch out and shake the feeder to release the seeds from the open ports, and when it climbs onto it from the top, its weight closes the ports**, totally thwarting its efforts to get at the seeds. The shots in this mosaic were taken in a five-minute span. Finally, it just looked straight at me as if to say, "What have you DONE?"
This morning the feeder was still filled almost to yesterday's level, which had never, ever been the case with the tray feeder. Don't worry, the squirrels have plenty of safflower seed to eat at my backyard feeders. Now, they're not supposed to like safflower, and at first they seemed to eat it with distasteful grimaces, but they've come to just gobble it down.
*The expensive seed is Wild Birds Unlimited's Southern NoMess. I have it at my front yard because there really is absolutely no mess beneath the feeder, which is aesthetically nicer for the location.
**In the larger view you can see how the ports are open when the squirrel is off the feeder but shut when it's on it.
The squirrel-proof feeder comes with some disadvantages: It sways when a bird lands on or takes off from a perch, as opposed to the stability of the tray feeder, which will make photography problematic if not impossible, and birds sometimes alight on the perch on the side opposite the window, making them invisible to me. So unless I relent and put seed in the now-dismantled tray feeder, I probably won't be taking any more wildlife shots from my office window. But at least the seed will be taken by birds now. Even a bluebird took from it this morning.

I love glitter (and tinsel and all that stuff) but I hate getting it on my face, in my hair, on the carpet, etc.. So my idea is that fake or faux glitter will be perfect for no-mess dress, decorations and table wear for festivities including parties, like Christmas parties.

Really stretching my tired brain to come up with an interesting photo for today. Not sure that I would call this success but it is the best I got....I bought these covers, called Gelaskins, for my work laptop and my personal laptop and my husband's blackberry curve. Here is a photo of the one on my work machine. Can you tell that I like to read?
These things protect your ipod, laptop and certain phones without adding bulk. Plus they look damn cool! www.gelaskins.com Super company!
as recommended by my fellow librarian Carol, this brilliant device alleviates the itchiness caused by bites or stings, without any of the cell damage associated with hydrocortisone application - handy at the moment having been eaten comprehensively by mossies, midgies and the ever-dreaded cleg (horsefly)...
despite the fact their slogan has kicked off a terrifying mini-reminisipackage of formerly popular beat-combo Right Said Fred's similarly named hit parade smash, i heartily approve of this product.
i needed a model to pose with this, and found this gnome, kindly given to me 18 months ago by Henry from Wevie Stonder.
perverting the use of this gadget toward unholy ends is not recommended.

I proofed some versions of this design on Silky Faille (polyester) and they look great, although using fray-stop or similar, or starching the fabric, is a good tip when sewing not only this but any fabric that frays a lot when handled.
See all my sparkly ‘glitter gun’ designs.
