It was in the tree just outside the living room window and they just kept going, one after another. It was so loud and strident inside the house that after 10 mins I had to go shoo them away.<br/><br/>Didn&#39;t help much, they just relocated to the tree across the road and continued on. Still quite audible inside. <br/><br/>No idea what was going on. 2024-11-25T21:21:02Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqsrjvunrjvrfghglsuqctewldhckxfvjy7uqs99essuvwq3t6y9jlqzyrqzca9gwxrpkdhe3ze2yye4qxr0hprk3pws4ft66ynltaja9ecpjgpv5kw Apparently the bottom of the food bowl is visible. <br/><br/>#CatsOfMastodon #BlackCat<br/> <img src="https://cdn.fosstodon.org/media_attachments/files/113/498/643/597/716/705/original/13178ff29975df29.jpg"> <br/> 2024-11-17T14:00:02Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqswqdj4l6mjpjt0dm3r07hh30t3x8uynzkn0hn3kjf6mjuxfvgtzaszyrqzca9gwxrpkdhe3ze2yye4qxr0hprk3pws4ft66ynltaja9ecpjpvymr2 Reach for the sky 🌞<br/><br/>#BloomScrolling<br/> <img src="https://cdn.fosstodon.org/media_attachments/files/113/216/457/774/684/330/original/67022300511d0889.jpg"> <br/> 2024-09-28T17:57:34Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqsgfgflc7vhvf74m60jfacjfs5q80zyn4nstc0d3a5xc7wn74vec0qzyrqzca9gwxrpkdhe3ze2yye4qxr0hprk3pws4ft66ynltaja9ecpjayvxgz Q: What&#39;s for dinner? <br/>A: Dunno yet. <br/>Q: Will it involve cherry tomatoes?<br/>A: You get one guess! 😏<br/><br/>#gardening #tomatoes<br/> <img src="https://cdn.fosstodon.org/media_attachments/files/113/187/697/420/688/386/original/8b4bf779e9cb6970.jpg"> <br/> 2024-09-23T16:02:21Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqsfa8wxkh2327u6cmpzuf304fn5f5qrtk3x806zpkcwz3kvcxazakgzyrqzca9gwxrpkdhe3ze2yye4qxr0hprk3pws4ft66ynltaja9ecpjf33zjl Sunlit tall grasses<br/><br/>#SilentSunday<br/> <img src="https://cdn.fosstodon.org/media_attachments/files/113/182/742/367/469/936/original/b539cdc5b8da1189.jpg"> <br/> 2024-09-22T19:02:01Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqsqjnln7mfwqtr68c7q69pdscav7hfdsr7zz8g6x8c9njspkh7v53gzyrqzca9gwxrpkdhe3ze2yye4qxr0hprk3pws4ft66ynltaja9ecpjfw48k8 In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsv8qvlzdevcnkappu0ssevrg46r58a6wks7r94utusus3xc62j3ec6p4zdt'>nevent1q…4zdt</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>The same columnar #basil plant almost three months later.
