Catherine O’Hara

Posted on January 30, 2026 by Jabo

Her humor has brought me so much happiness and the news of her passing is heavy. So many late nights of my early teens were spent watching SCTV and laughing at the wonderful sketches she played in. From Best in Show to Schitt’s Creek, she was a light of comedy.

Minnesota – January 2026

Posted on January 27, 2026 by Jabo

The deaths of Renee Good and Alex Pretti; along with the deaths and trauma of those in detention, the attacks on citizens and the climate of fear, are inexcusable and a sign of how far our government has fallen into fascism. But there is hope with the protests and backlash. Here are two interesting articles for our times along with what you can do to help. Oh… and call your representatives and tell them to abolish ICE.

The first link is an article by Radley Balko comparing the current situation in Minnesota to the occupation of Boston by the British prior to the Revolutionary War.

This next link is to an archived version of a piece by Adam Serwer in the Atlantic describing the failure of MAGA in Minnesota.

Finally, a link to ways of helping those in Minneapolis fighting ICE.

Harriers and coyotes 1_19_26

Posted on January 20, 2026 by Jabo

I’ve been sitting out with the camera trying to photograph the elusive pair of Harriers that have been regularly flying our greenbelt (and scaring the birds away from our feeders!). I barely noticed one hiding in a tree while the other flew nearby. Today, I got to watch as one sat on a snag and preened and stretched. And there are always coyotes that pass by! More descriptions under each photo.

Fare thee well now
Let your life proceed by its own design
Nothing to tell now
Let the words be yours, I’m done with mine

Harriers, a coyote and sunset 1_9_26

Posted on January 10, 2026 by Jabo

There are 2 harriers that are hunting up and down the greenbelt. Today, one landed near a coyote who turned and took an interest in the bird. Luckily it flew off before becoming lunch! The evening sunset gave the snow on the Sangres a nice crimson hue.

2025 addendum

Posted on January 5, 2026 by Jabo

Here are photos that I’ve been meaning to add to last year’s posts but never got around to. Included are a trip to Big Tesuque Creek, our vacation at Lake Tahoe, our resident Great Horned Owl, a plastic Maizey and finally an assortment of time-lapse clouds.
