I am glad! Lemmy needs more bright little corners of things to make people smile. It's good to follow politics and news and tech, but those things are seldom positive stories.
With nobody else posting, I decided to make it what I wanted to see on Lemmy, so while I do post adorable but deadly birds, I also try to teach about them so we care about saving them and to spotlight the people that care for them when they're injured.
Sometimes I'll post about environmental concerns if it's more important than usual, but it's mainly just to give everyone, including myself, something to look forward to seeing.
If you're non-US, I try to they're in owls from around the world a few times a week, and if you have any questions it there's something you want to see, just let me know!
Alright! Thank you! I really appreciate all your work and I enjoy reading the stories about the birds themselves and the teaching info too. It's definitely a great community that I didn't know I needed until I joined, it's very positive like you said.
