She looks like Dorotka, who's been coming to lay her eggs near our house for the past six years, with a break or two. Now we'll go through the archives to make sure it's she.

Fuck. They're back.

White man's footprint. And white man's tire prints.

From Wikipedia: "Reportedly brought to the Americas by Puritan colonizers, plantain was known among some Native American peoples by the common name "white man's footprint", because it thrived in the disturbed and damaged ecosystems surrounding European settlements"

Saturday evening in #EasternPoland. Most poles of #Polesia are drunk.

Sending quite a strong signal from here. This means our #LoRaWAN seems to be functioning properly at last.

Tractors invading our wetlands. It wouldn't normally pass here, but we have drought.

At first we thought it was Dorota, who always comes first, but we checked old pictures and the markings don't match.

Going home with the groceries. Through Big One. Big One is a small hamlet near our home. At least that's what we call it, because the first part of the hamlet's name translates to Big and the second is a homophone of One.

Kurki czekają deszczu jak kanie dżdżu. Póki co chowają się w trawie, a zamiast nich pojawia się sporo podszywaczy. Zdjęcie kurek pochodzi z miejsca, gdzie zawsze sprawdzamy czy już są, a miejsce to nazywamy kurkoindykatorem.

I'm not going to stay up till dawn, like I did yesterday.
