about a half-dozen crows were gathered in the woods behind our porch, calling at each other. I put peanuts out for them, and suddenly there were a half-dozen crows mobbing our porch--and then they all quietly dispersed, to break open and eat or cache their prizes. XD they can only carry max 2 peanuts in their beaks, though I've seen a few learn the trick of swallowing one first so they can get 3 in one trip.
Depression
One thing to remember:
Depression is real.
Whether it's "justified" or not, it is very real.
That is, whether the person who is affected by depression thinks they have cause to be justified or not... whether bystanders think they just need to go out hiking in the woods and "get over it" or not...
Your feelings are real.
Their feelings are real.
If someone ever tells you how they feel, BELIEVE THEM, even if you don't understand why they feel that way.
I had a T-shirt I bought arrive he other day, with the most important question of them all!

You might know about lionfish. They're also called zebrafish (not to be confused with true zebrafish), firefish, turkeyfish, and butterfly cod, because apparently every fish is a kind of cod.
The lionfish aren't actually a species - they're a genus! They're so diverse that they've got multiple species under the Pterois genus. But they share characteristics: they have banded warning coloration, spiky fins, and venom that's distributed through their spines.
