In early winter, the peak of the migratory bird... season arrives. Each year, this is when flocks of birds return to the Dazong Lake Tourist Resort in Yandu District, Yancheng.

As the sun sets, countless birds glide through the warm glow of dusk, circling against the sky in a scene filled with poetry and quiet wonder. Their arrival brings new life and vibrant beauty to the winter wetland of Dazong Lake.show more

We have a big tree by the front window... of the bedroom… every morning I wake up at 7am to the cutest little chirps and conversations from all the birds who call it home. It’s one of the many small moments of joy that start my day… Did you know: 1️⃣ compared to urban noise exposer, hearing birds chirp has been shown to reduce stress levels (cortisol) by as much as 20% from as little as 5 minutes of exposure. This counts even if you hear it through in unnatural settings (like through headphones or on the TV). 2️⃣ in studies, anxiety dropped up to 25% when people were exposed to the sound. 3️⃣ positive affect increased by 25-35%. Participants report higher feelings of calm, safety, and optimism. The sound of birds has also been shown to help people recover faster from stress inducing interactions/situations. And if you’re dealing with mental fatigue or screen overload, listening to birds chit chat away, participants found themselves feeling mentally refreshed 25-40% faster than those who had listened to the hum of traffic or complete silence. Unfortunately, our turkeys don’t always count… but I’m grateful for this big ol’ tree 😜show more

How many cows does it take to fuel a... year on carnivore? 🥩⠀ ⠀ 📊 The carnivore math:⠀ ⠀ 2 lbs beef/day = ~730 lbs beef/year⠀ ⠀ Average cow yields 450 lbs edible beef⠀ ⠀ That’s 1.6 cows per year⠀ ⠀ Now compare that with vegan staples:⠀ ⠀ One vegan eats 400–600 lbs grains and veg per year⠀ ⠀ Mechanized harvesting kills countless field animals (mice, birds, insects, rabbits, fawns, etc.)⠀ ⠀ Estimates range hundreds to thousands of small animal deaths per person, per year⠀ ⠀ That’s not even factoring in the widespread use of pesticides on crops, which wipe out billions of insects + poison small mammals, fish, and birds⠀ ⠀ So which diet really minimizes animal suffering?⠀ 👉 Grass-fed carnivore: 1–2 large animals⠀ 👉 Vegan: Death toll spread across entire ecosystems⠀ ⠀ The uncomfortable truth:⠀ Eating grass-fed beef respects life more than a “bloodless” plant-based plate.show more

I can’t believe this is the Cockpit Country, one... of the largest forested areas in Jamaica. This region is so rich in biodiversity that scientists are still discovering plants and animals new to science. We haven’t even fully assessed the area yet. I really wonder how our plants and animals are doing up there, especially after everything we’ve been seeing across the island.
