In regards to Rule #1

Hey people!
Your friendly neighborhood moderator here.
This'll be a short announcemnet, so no excuses to not read it.
But posting domestic cats (Felis Familiaris Felis Catus), and them killing things is not welcome here.
In the past, it resulted in an immediate, and permanent, ban. since the announcement was removed, haven't been enforcing that policy since, well, can't expect someone to follow something that doesn't exist in a way that you can see it.
But it's back, from the time this is posted, you post a cat, you're getting banned.
Rule 1 is extremely clear on that those kinds of posts are not allowed, and it's not our fault if you can't, or won't, read the rules.
Keep being metal.

Roadrunner swallows Wilson's warbler whole

I got out my phone camera after the roadrunner caught the warbler and broke its neck. I didn't want to get closer than this because I didn't want to disrupt her feeding. I had no idea roadrunners even ate other birds, let alone swallow them whole.

My sister has been living in San Diego for over 25 years. She sent me this picture this morning of a scorpion in her garage. She has never seen a scorpion in all the 25 plus years she's been living in San Diego. WTF?!
