There were a lot of freshwater mussels on the 2021 US extinction list. They didn’t leave us with haunting recordings of them calling out for a mate they’d never meet, there were no drawings in vivid color. They were extremely important nevertheless and their loss is frustrating too. That’s why stream ecology and mollusks have always fascinated me. They were silent, stalwart little heroes and entire species were lost to pollution.

Especially if you're going to be lighting your fireplace or wood burning stove!

Hello I would like to know what's going on about 6 seconds in, please and thank you

Nothing to worry about @irascibubble Nothing to worry about at all.

Genuinely no need to worry! It's just a reflection of the deer's antlers. This is is common in trail cams, especially at night. :)
