The raven died. The good folks at avianhaven.org did their best. The remaining ravens have been rather morose: I left a few balls of "goose bread" on the rock when I locked Pluto up for the night-it was gone this morning. One was out back calling when I tried to communicate I was leaving an offerring-or was it a local feral feline that consumed the bread during the last 24 hours?
The fish kill is the hands of MDEP. DEP seemed certain that concrete leachate was the suspect. However, a water test spiked high for copper, so DEP said the container was wrong and the sample wasn't properly prepped, and went back 5 days after the incident and took two more samples which came back normal for parameters.
I caught a FYEO draft report which revealed the copper discrepancy, and after doing some digging found a plausible expalnation for the spike in copper-which catfish are particularly susceptible to-and sent the info along to the orignal leaker of the draft report, who bounced it back to dEPwho got their panties in a wad.
I finally threw my virutal hands up in disgust and said as long as there is NOT a repeat fish kill and someone is held accountible, fine.
Ancient guy who walks everyday got MY panties in a wad when he left a paper with an FYI article op ed justifying POTUS's sending the troops into Portland Oregon.
I want to reply that I would like to know how many Americans have protestred since the current prez was elected, point out that he incites division and villifies fellow Amercians, and that I do not support fascism. But how do you do that to a 90 somthing Korean war veteran whose wife of 60 something years is in a nursing home and they , when he can visit, have to socially distance outside and both wear masks>
Me, the reclusive life is starting to lose it's appeal along with the length of sunlight. I am going back back back to what used to inspire me, what my passions were, where do I find happiness in this turmoil?
