#ThrowbackThursday to a few years ago, pre-pandemic, when I was commuting 52 miles (84Km) roundtrip every day from our then home near downtown down to the Johnson Space Center (glad I don’t have to do that any more). I took this photo while heading home on a #summer evening when the otherwise mundane drive in Houston freeway traffic was transformed by this a dying #thunderstorm over the city, spectacularly lit up by the setting sun.

Where is she?

This is a male pileated woodpecker. I took the photo a few months ago, there was a mated pair hanging out in nearby trees. In this photo he stopped what he was doing to look around.

Wait, #throwbackthursday is still a thing?! Don't mind if I do. See: cherry blossoms from our first trip to Japan in 2014. (Coincidentally about the last time I trucked with social media.)

I think this is the longest I've had my hair. But not anymore. Too annoying.

My aunt gave me this pic after my uncle died in 1995. I don't know where she got it. Back says "Flea Time."

My uncle was a P.O.W. in Germany in WWII. He was in The Great Escape camp and then Stalag VIIA, Moosburg, at the end of the war before being liberated on April 29, 1945. The camp was riddled with fleas and lice. They had to delouse themselves.

The story of seven of these POWs is profiled in this book.

Herbie Hancock is not only using technology for the #jazz music ( #synths #patchbays #effects #sampling ) but here, we find him using an Apple /// (with a green phosphor Monitor ///) with VisiCalc (#spreadsheet) to manage his music business (1983). He was waiting for an Apple Lisa too... both computers ultimately unsuccessful, unlike the apple ][ (which he used in studio and shows) and Macintosh that would follow. #Macintosh #appleII #MARCHintosh #appleIII #retrocomputing @jazz @retrocomputing

At 5 months old Suki was all EARS. #ThrowbackThursday #DogsOfMastodon

Apparently it's National Puppy Day, so I'm throwing it back to 2017 when my two pals, Calvin & Gigi, were just wee little tykes. Hard to believe I've been taking care of them for 6 years already! What a joy they've been. ❤️ ❤️

Great White Egret

It's easy to see how this bird gets its name. Lurking in the shadows on the bayou, it looks both beautiful and deadly.

'It is often found standing in the water or walking on land looking for food. This species of egret typically feeds by wading through shallow water while stalking its prey, waiting until it comes near the feet before pouncing on them." - learnbirdwatching.com

Peace ✌☮🕊

I'm a child of the 60s we used to flash the two fingered peace sign as greeting among friends. Now it seems corny but then it was cool. We used slang like groovy, bitchen, and to indicate approval. We also said "man" a lot, like "groovy man." It was another time, I sometimes think of it a three lifetimes ago.

Anyway, I hope you enjoy this peaceful photo of sea birds at the beach. I clearly focused on the waves not the birds. Cheers.

I'm still trying ...

This pretty Eastern bluebird was on the powerline across the road from my front yard. That is where we usually end our morning walk. I've been trying to lure these birds into my backyard where they might perch in the trees. So far, I haven't seen any there or seen any evidence that they've been there.

"Eastern Bluebirds eat mostly insects, wild fruit and berries. Occasionally, Eastern Bluebirds have also been observed capturing and eating larger prey items such as shrews, salamanders, snakes, lizards and tree frogs." - allaboutbirds.org

That time Stephen Colbert visited #NASA and I (blue shirt) made him do a double take 🤣🤣

He was very kind, introduced himself to us all, and sent us autographed pics!

And when I was working #ISS, I had to train on the C.O.L.B.E.R.T (Combined Operational Load-Bearing External Resistance Treadmill) treadmill!!
