yellow fly of the dismal swamp

Finally finished my brioche sweater after it sat in time out for a while! kinda iffy on the fit, I think I need to redo the collar and perhaps shorten the sleeves, but I don't have the willpower at present lol.

“I can finish this spindle spin today, there’s only a couple rolags left—”

Guys. Spindle spinning takes so long. I need to lock in.

Aside from my ongoing treadle wheel project, I’m probably going to use my espinner exclusively for Tour de Fleece. Yes, I found the cross spindle extremely valuable last year for getting in just a couple minutes of spinning to check off the day, but. Ultimately I don’t want to spin a large quantity on a spindle and I’m not interested in spinning small quantities (<100g).

and they have a specific relationship with crested caracaras, in which the black vultures assist them by not only preening them after meals but also leading them to food in the first place, while the caracaras assist the black vultures by acting as a warning signal in case of danger

and while this is more typical of black vultures, this is not common at all for any member of the falconidae family— it’s a special bond!

yet another post in favor of vultures everyone , hope you enjoy:) and I implore you to do some more research on these incredible birds !!

EDIT: I meant interspecific allopreening! excuse my typo!
