The most intellectual creature to ever walk Earth is destroying its only home.  JANE GOODALL (April 3, 1934 - October 1, 2025) I`m glad I wasn`t on the sidewalk when this happened. They dance and they dream by the side of the stream.  PAUL LAURENCE DUNBAR A diligent cormorant dove deep and came up with a fish. Lazy gulls immediately tried to take the fish away.

We`re both trying to hold onto summer. Proud of his catch. I didn`t realize yesterday that the cormorant has emerald green eyes (see October 1 above). Whoever you are, no matter how lonely, the world offers itself to your imagination, calls to you like the wild geese, harsh and exciting. MARY OLIVER There is no cruelty here.

Sunrise at Goose Lake. Birds do it.  Bees do it.  Even turtles in the seas do it. Clinging desperately to summer. On my way home, I paused to take one more look. Another photographer and I politely took turns shooting pictures of a butterfly.

I go to this event every year for the flying dogs (see October 6, 2024; October 8, 2023; October 2, 2022). Oh the lengths dogs go to to please humans. In this event, competitors try to do life-threatening things faster than anyone else. I really look up to adventurous people. I`ve seen this show many times, and no one`s been hurt.
