Early morning start to a @BirdsCanada Birdathon day! I'm doing a green Birdathon day, while also still working (hopefully from the porch hearing birds), so no ambitious species goals this time!

“If you haven’t fallen in love with Tim Walz yet, watch him and his daughter Hope at the Minnesota state fair”

I am proud to announce that I've asked @Tim_Walz to be my running mate.
As a governor, a coach, a teacher, and a veteran, he's delivered for working families like his.
It's great to have him on the team.
Now let’s get to work. Join us:

Like Vice President Harris, Governor @Tim_Walz believes that government works to serve us. Not just some of us, but all of us. That’s what makes him an outstanding governor, and that’s what will make him an even better vice president. Michelle and I couldn’t be happier for Tim and Gwen, their family, and our country.

My fellow Democrats, I have decided not to accept the nomination and to focus all my energies on my duties as President for the remainder of my term. My very first decision as the party nominee in 2020 was to pick Kamala Harris as my Vice President. And it’s been the best decision I’ve made. Today I want to offer my full support and endorsement for Kamala to be the nominee of our party this year. Democrats — it’s time to come together and beat Trump. Let’s do this.

#Indigenous Protected & Conserved Areas are more than just lines on a map: they protect places that matter most & support healthy lands, which builds healthy communities. They’re an expression of Nationhood, & we’re proud to support this work across Canada ilinationhood.ca/indigenous-…
A day to celebrate these awesome birds!
Happy International Guillemot Appreciation Day!
Canada’s coasts are home to Black Guillemots and Pigeon Guillemots. Watch for their bright red feet if you get a chance to see these adorable seabirds dive!
Learn about what we’re doing to protect them: birdscanada.org/bird-science…
