Long term we don't know what happens when we die. But we have a pretty good idea of the short term. Scientist have talked to hundreds of people who died and came back, and most of them report that the old saying about your life passing in front of your eyes is true. But it's from the point of view of the person or animal you interacted with. One lady who was in a car wreck at 20 years old spent a week in a coma. She reported she relived an episode that happened when she was eight. She had her hamster out of the cage and was playing with it. It bit her on the finger and she threw it across the room. She relived it from the hamster's point of view, with the fear and pain being very real.
When ask how real it felt, they all said it was much more real than the life we are living now. Like a huge HD TV compared to the little 13 inch black and whites we watched as kids.
I've killed way more varmints than I like to think about. I don't look forward to dealing with that when I die. Also I've caused a couple three women pain and heartache. That is not going to be fun either. So I'm eating my veggies and getting in my miles.

The folks who lease the timber land next to my creek land showed me a picture of a pied (sp? anyway, a mixed white and tan deer) doe they got on their game cam. There was some construction nearby, and the night watchman said he had seen a pied buck.

I think we pretty much know what's happens when we die. When we witness the process it is pretty much the same each time - system(s) malfunction/shutdown, loss of animation and consciousness, decomposition, etc.. Anything beyond that empirical process is speculation/faith/wishful thinking. Many people that have been through NDE (near death experience) report nothing at all, and some admittedly make up stories of an afterlife for various reasons. Like the popular case of Adam Malarkey (love that last name, which is synonymous with bullshit) and his best selling book. We've even tested NDE and out of body experiences by putting a message on top of a high item in the room to see if anyone can read said message as they "leave their bodies." No one has ever read those messages. The messages that people 'bring back from the other side' are never anything useful like the answer to an unsolved math equation, or 'here is where I buried that money', it's always I love you, everything's okay, etc.. The brain is very powerful and can cause all type of hallucination, especially when deprived of oxygen or other form of serious system failure. I can't see a reason to think it points to anything else. It is a nice idea, but I just can't believe in magic or the supernatural at this stage in my life. Always open to evidence, though...

I personally don't think Zeus was a goose. But lots of folks do belief in magic. That's why I've started a new climate friendly religion. When I was talking to my neighbors about climate change, I kept butting heads with Jesus. I figured if religious mythology was being used as an excuse not to do anything, why not use it to give folks a reason to at least try.
My deity is Tutmose, son of the sun god. As a boy he hung out at the temple in Memphis playing with the Bull Gods when they were just yearlings. Tutmose and Apis, hanging out by the Hout-ka-Ptah. (I could use a little help with the gospel music)

That's awesome I put feeders out every year and had a tree they would sit on to rest then fly back for more but never saw nests. Nice looking nest also,looks insulated good.

They use spider webs to stick it together then stick greenery to the outside for camo. I don't know where she got the cotton from.
Found one when we went to Costa Rica, hiked into the jungle with friends and when waterfall jumping we saw this - unbelievably small.
Not sure if I could get enough chocolate on it.

I'll try most anything - attending another wild game dinner next month - looking forward to having some beaver again. She said it was 6 to 8 inches long - would nearly be a full meal. I was merely trying to offer a solution to her complaint about the critters crapping in her pool - while living in a paradise.

The Scarlet Macaw in Costa Rica is called Lapa Roja.

Well here are some critters that showed up in my yard. First one is a Ruby Red Throat Hummingbird, second is a Green Snake on my patio and the last one is a Bard Owl that decided to nap in a tree in my backyard. I dig nature.
