I think the fish are running. Yesterday there were 2-3 eagles off shore diving and swooping over the water. Today the tribe has nets out (which meant there were seals out too)!
Couldn’t get anything in focus though. It was too late in the evening.
Am I wrong, or did he just miss grabbing a duck?

Most of the 700,000 people in jail are still eligible to vote, because they are in pretrial detention or serving sentences for minor offenses. But few can actually do so. "The de facto disenfranchisement of jailed citizens is a democratic failure.” https://www.bostonglobe.com/2020/10/20/opinion/real-forgotten-voter-is-sitting-jail/
Last week, an investigation by Human Rights Watch found that NYPD planned a coordinated assault on hundreds of Bronx protestors. Trapped them 10 minutes before curfew to justify attacking them for being out past curfew. Hundreds injured. Consequences? None. Instead: 900 new cops. https://twitter.com/nwmalinowski/status/1319753250095157248
Shamefully, the NYPD (already the largest police force in the US *by far*) will be adding 900 officers next week, while other city agencies are facing staffing cuts and shortages. NYPD runs NYC. https://twitter.com/tweetbenmax/status/1319735013773086721
I am Becca and I have the gift of premonitiums https://twitter.com/repclayhiggins/status/1319715219216674817
My wife has the gift of premonition.
Last night she dreamed that Federal squads were in our home seizing guns, knives, “unauthorized foods” and stored water. They said we had been “reported”.
Becca awoke crying.
What happened to our freedom? She asked.
What indeed.
Here's why this case is so important: https://www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/2020/10/signature-matching-is-the-phrenology-of-elections/616790/
Voting experts think the vast majority of ballots rejected for signature mismatch are actually valid. https://twitter.com/marceelias/status/1319691963520684033
🚨BREAKING: Pennsylvania Supreme Court rules that election officials are PROHIBITED from rejecting mail-in ballots based on signature comparison. Nor may a party "challenge based on signature analysis and comparisons."

NEW: Right-wing agitators were responsible for shooting up and burning a Minnesota police precinct during George Floyd protests; shouted “justice for Floyd” as they destroyed it. Trump, Fox News pointed to the incident as evidence of violent protestors. https://www.startribune.com/charges-boogaloo-bois-fired-on-mpls-precinct-shouted-justice-for-floyd/572843802/
Looks like a try on a duck, yeah. I mean, they’ll eat carrion, too. So not too surprising. Especially after watching crows catch and eat ducklings and goslings at a pond near work.
