Ted - UPDATE March 23, 2022
Redpolls
Redpolls aplenty

In this 3-minute video by Toni Embree, Ted seemed to be communicating with his actions. And maybe he did the same a few days ago, too, according to a caller today. She said she saw Ted find his bowl in his straw and put it by his entrance where people would put food in it. Now, today, he went to the fence where he sometimes gets food. Staff at the Bear Center are listening (or watching) and the talk is that food will be coming in a few days. At the fence, he showed the shaved spot on his left hind leg where I believe doctors inserted the IV for working on his teeth last fall. Walking slowly and unsteadily back, he seemed to be saying what I’m hearing from people about being tired of so much snow and that it can’t melt soon enough. https://www.facebook.com/toni.embree.54/posts/706897906992004

Out the window, the redpolls said they have been fooling me about heading north. They were back in numbers—over a hundred total and hungry on this day of fresh snow on branches where catkins were available and growing on the recent warm days. Today, it was back to winter.

Russian landing ship has been destroyed and two other vessels have been damaged in the occupied Ukrainian port city of Berdyansk, say Ukrainian officials.
The Ukrainian military posted footage early on Thursday and said the Orsk had been hit by its forces.
Details of what caused the explosion and fire on board the ship are unclear.
Berdyansk, which is west of the besieged port of Mariupol, was seized four days after Russia invaded Ukraine.
Russia says it has used the port as a base to ferry in equipment for its troops.
Russian army TV hailed the arrival of the Orsk in Berdyansk last week as an "epic event" as it was the first Russian warship to dock there.
Drone footage filmed by Russian state TV reporter Murad Gazdiev showed an armoured personnel carrier being offloaded from the Orsk in the port. The armoured vehicles were to be used to reinforce Russian troops, the TV report added.  Deputy Defence Minister Hanna Malyar told Ukrainian TV that the military had hit a "huge target", capable of carrying 20 tanks, 45 armoured vehicles and 400 troops.
The BBC cannot independently verify the claim. Earlier this week Gazdiev, who works for Russia-backed media outlet RT, reported that Ukrainian missiles had repeatedly targeted Berdyansk port, and every missile had been intercepted by Russian anti-air defence.

I feel guilty doing puzzles and chatting like all is well and normal while Russia is being so brutal.  Go Ukraine! Wish we could help you more, but understand the threat of nuclear war too real to risk.  So God please help us to use the Free Will you granted to stop this atrocity soon.
 It will end sometime.  Why not right now?
 
7:02 on elephants. 49° and cloudy along the south shore today. May go out. Don't know yet.  Maybe after lunch.

Being encouraged by others I care about to call back surgeon soon.  I will call.  Maybe today.  I can walk, and am enjoying that in the parks and along the lake shore.  I can do most things, but not always with confidence and comfort.  Back is a limiting injury.  I guess i must address it and hope for the best.

hi joho well ukraine one step forward two back i guess that belarus where so call meetings took place and zelenski said they were for russia now putin moving weapons there  >:(belarus  helping take out ukraine putin will stop at nothing and really i would rather have ww3 than putin. we will go to a better place he will not. i will be the one with all the horses a ramming goat the big big dogs many other dogs cats etc  putin thought nato would break up but they did not america citizen over in kyiv fighting for his homeland ukraine saying he does not think putin will use nuke its suicide he does think putin use chemical  weapons and then say ukraines use them on themselves like we would do that. but he is right putin such a filthy liar! mayor of kviv when ask if russia will get that city he says no we will never stop not wanting to be a slave to dictator putin want our freedom our country our homeland then reporter said putin saying he is only targeting military site mayor said bulls*** now really nato who does not want that freedom  oh putin god bless ukraine!

[johoward]

Yes Cal, at our age ww3 might be tolerable to stop evil getting away with everything all the time, but what of my Mary's baby boy coming in May, and her mom Debbie and Boss and all the other innocents we love.  Like Neva, Rues, Ra and her girls, all the Eagle and Bear chatters  They will all be obliterated. Or worse, mutilated and made to suffer for a long time or forever.
 No Cal I think somehow, not clear how yet, evil will not prevail and nuclear devastation will be avoided. 
This is my prayer anyway.  Through Him all things are possible.  God Bless Ukraine.

[calihoula]

hi joho i dont want that either i dont think putin will do that but chemical weapons think maybe so does nato and like someone said if putin does then they have to go in cant let putin do that for sure and if something happened all of us all of us good innocent would go to a better place not made to suffer and not forever putin yes to him but i dont think it will i think good will beat out evil i hope end of putin and very soon god bless ukraine no more cnn going to bed i feel guilty to turn it off cause they cant. we can not should not sit back and watch this evil thing kill innocent people

A Beautiful Nature Day Plus Course Openings - UPDATE March 24, 2022
Trumpeter swans
Trumpeter swans

I have to confess that on this sunny, calm, blue sky day I had to celebrate Spring. I found Donna free and we went to see the swans like she’s been wanting to do but I’ve had deadlines to meet. River otter
River otter
We went to the usual swan spot east of Ely where a river opens early and wildlife gathers. On the way, a bald eagle flew over but was gone before I could stop for a picture against the blue sky. At the river, seven trumpeter swans and several Canada geese rested and preened while goldeneye ducks actively dove for food. Most fun was watching an otter far up the river rolling in snow on the ice and sometimes just resting before heading back to the water and disappearing.

In the tippy top of a red pine, a crow ate over 20 beakfuls of snow before a raven flew close and the crow took flight.

A flock of Bohemian waxwings were flitting about, the first I’ve seen this winter, but they refused to sit for a picture. The one in flight shows the bright yellow tip of the tail and the yellow edging on a wing.

Birch w/snow and ice

At the cabin, I noticed a bigger reason than snow that drove the redpolls back here to sunflower seeds. As the snow melted on the upper branches of birches, I saw that the branches, including the catkins they eat, were coated with ice. It’s hard to see the ice in the picture. It glistened more in life than I captured in the picture.

The gull was back for a picture of its eyes so I could check for identifying dots on the irises. It got pieces of bologna as a reward.

Suddenly, with a group and two others having to cancel from the Black Bear Field Courses, we suddenly have 5 openings in Class Two that starts on July 11 and 2 openings in Class Three that starts on July 18. Lodging limitations limits availability to women for these openings. E-mail Judy Thon at [email protected] for more information.

[calhound]

[johoward]

4:22 Very good for me.  Yes Cal great update.  Good you taking a little break from world news.  Prayers for peace still going out daily.  I see we are going to be parents and grand parents of some baby eagles at North soon.  There is a pip already.
Plus Ted and Tasha stirring some.  Lots of new snow there, but not here yet.  Gonna bring Lenten dinner to Deb and Boss again tonight.  Seems soon to me.  I hope the Girl Scouts have some cookies for me to get and give away to my nice neighbors.  They were always there in the precovid days, and I miss them.  Today the church is opening the hall.  They have been drive through only for the past few weeks. So with the hall open, i expect the scouts will set up in the entrance as in the past.  I hope they do, because I have taken orders from friends.  Hate to disappoint.  I will go early and get some in front of Walmart just to be safe. LOL Well got to go to Drugmart for RX so I will leave you all now to hopefully enjoy your Friday and weekend.
GB and God Bless Ukraine.
