Ain't it purty? #herbalism #gardening #rewilding #RedClover

Sunrise over the storks and an orange sky.
5.12 It's a misty morning and Pa Stork stands guard over the sleeping storklets. He puffs out his front feathers to keep warm.

#Caturday began at 5:30am this morning. Calling it a night. Looking forward to #SolarPunkSunday tomorrow. I hope folks will join me (between 11am and 5pm EDT). I'm hoping @BrambleBearGrrrauwling and @MaQuest will chime in. And anyone else who wants to post about such topics as #Degrowth, #Rewilding, #GreenCities, #Gardening, #Sustainability, #CircularEconomy, #LibraryOfThings, #RepairCafes, #Bicycles, #VisibleMending, #DIY, and more! Ideas and posts welcome!

Here's what happens when you bring a population of indigenous large animals back to levels the ecosystem evolved for. Apparently, tortoises engineer their environment to be healthier for all species.

A hazy day.
9.09 Ma Stork tends the nest. The pile of snoozing storklets stirs. They soon settle down again though.

Sunny today!
13.03-13.12 One of the slumbering storklets wakes and starts to preen itself.

"Why we're teaching English in the Ecuadorian Amazon | VLOG" [13:51 min]

"Apr 21, 2025
In this vlog, Adriana joins our two new volunteers, Ben and Morgan, as they get started teaching English for rural Kichwa community in the Yasuni region."

ABOUT THIS PROJECT
We are embarking on a new journey. To help protect the most biodiverse place on Earth.
Our new project, led by our own team of biologists, will aim to protect and restore rainforest in the buffer zone of the Yasuní National Park. Located in the Amazon region of Ecuador, this rainforest is home to the highest concentration of species on the planet.
We have laid the cornerstone by purchasing 209 hectares of forest that borders the national park, securing its protection and establishing a base for our project. Together with members of the local community and local experts, we will develop solutions to stop forest degradation and kick-start forest regeneration in the area."

“We zijn vergeten hoe rijk de #natuur ooit was. Dit besef van wat we zijn kwijtgespeeld, geeft je een heel ander idee van hoe het landschap eruit zou kunnen zien.”

“De westerse cultuur heeft de #wildernis tot het tegendeel van de beschaving gemaakt, maar dat is ze helemaal niet: het wilde is het grondvest.”

Linde De Vroey schreef een voor de Lage Landen noodzakelijk boek over #rewilding en #verwilderen. En ze heeft er ook veel interessants over te vertellen.

9.34 Think this is Pa Stork snoozing on the nest. It's overcast and windy but he seems content as the nest sways gently in the breeze.

9.20-9.22 It's been raining on the nest and Pa Stork is drying out his feathers. The storklets clatter their beaks at him in greeting. They are nice and dry. There's a good view of the whole family together, as Ma Stork flies in with more nesting material.
