Quite a pose you captured! Good light too really showing the color.

Amazing work, thank you so much!
The creator has a webpage with more stuff, including a short video giving some history of freeway construction and advocating for an end to expansions.
That looks amazing, thanks for posting. Do you have a dedicated deep fryer, or just use a dutch oven or something like that?
Thank you so much!
Not sure why the first image isn't loading. Still getting the hang of posting here. This is what's supposed to be there:
Those claws mean business. Pity the fish.
The crows and crow-adjacent corvids are so impressive. Good photo!
It's going to take time to rebuild communities to the activity level we're used to. Lemmy's had lots of growth but it's still a tiny fraction of the size of what reddit was. Most people here are still getting their bearings on how to do basics like subscribe, let alone contribute.
I think making comments and having person-to-person engagement is the most critical at this stage. Comments and votes will rise posts up and onto the main page for visibility. That's how a lot of people will find things. A lot of the "active" conversations are dominated by technical Q&A and complaining/schadenfreude about reddit. If we can get on-topic threads going in communities, that will help diversify conversations and seed more discussions.
I'm working to get over my natural lurker inclination because Lemmy needs the human conversations that make threaded platforms useful and engaging.
If you haven't found them already, here's two communities on maps: https://lemmy.world/c/mapporn https://lemmy.world/c/[email protected]
That is an adorable little predator.
