Me sitting at work gazing out the window: I should be at the club 😔 (EDITOR’S NOTE: “the club” here means “outside enjoying the sunny 60 degree weather”)

✧ A Mothers Revenge ✧

A kestrel seeks revenge on a European Starling after it kills and eats her chicks. In the U.S, European starlings have a devastating impact on our native ecosystems in the entire United States. This species is known for their aggression towards other cavity nesting birds, outcompeting native species for nesting spots and food sources. They’ve been known to kill many native species from bluebirds, to woodpeckers, to kestrels. They are violent towards competing species, destroying their nests, and pecking holes in eggs laid by other birds. Not to mention, they also destroy crops and devour multitudes of grain each year.

I wanted to portray something intense to kind of grab people’s attention to this problem. Most people don’t know how horribly invasive they are. While they’re pretty birds, they’re not meant to live in the United States. I wanted to use colors like red (to represent anger, sadness, revenge, betrayal) to portray what native species have to endure every year towards a bird that was never supposed to even come in contact with them. And colors like yellow (to represent wrongfully perceived innocence and guilt).

The spills of blood can be represented as the successful revenge the kestrel has, or, the multitudes of blood spilled from native species by European Starlings.

Did you know? All the European Starlings in North America descended from 100 birds set loose in New York’s Central Park in the early 1890s. The birds were intentionally released by a group who wanted America to have all the birds that Shakespeare ever mentioned. It took several tries, but eventually the population took off. Today, more than 200 million European Starlings range from Alaska to Mexico.

Snippet of a very cool concert I went to! There was so much foot-tapping you could hear the thumping on the beat 😄

Well I can't do Ring Fit Adventure anymore because of my bum shoulder, which I'm very sad about because it was the only thing that had gotten me to exercise consistently, and I'd just beat NG+ and was about to move on to NG++. But last night I headed to the fitness room and did a short jog on the treadmill. Jogging sucks and I hate it but at least Ring Fit did something for my cardio because I wasn't struggling as bad as every other time I've tried to get into jogging!

#the only thing that gets me thru is watching pokemon VGC videos while i jog. thank you pokesports and jeans#no one cares about this post#the leg strength isnt there tho......i cant jog that long i gotta build it up
