Can bearded dragon eyesight be restored?

2y 9mon ago in herpetology@mander.xyz

Consider your possible "cures" in the same way humans "cure" their blindness. If your dragon has cataracts, surgery could be an option if you could find a vet willing, able, and trained to do it. But if this is a natural degredation from age, there is no "cure."

Cleric/moon Druid gish builds in 5e

2y 9mon ago in rpg@ttrpg.network

I always go for a druid-type in games (I have a druid of the coast in a 5e game and now a moon druid in BG3) and I too am frustrated that I can't really do spells while Bear. But it's okay, because I am Bear.

Neverwinter Nights and Roller Coaster Tycoon when I was a little kid. I watched my dad play Neverwinter and had to indulge in my own tiny fantasy to play as a "dragon." Still at it.

what's your favourite short game?

2y 9mon ago in boardgames@feddit.de

Tsuro is always our go-to short game for when folks are getting to game night and getting into the mood. We also like to play Uno at the end of the night when our brains are fried or Jackbox.

Red Shouldered Hawk - Venice, FL

2y 10mon ago in birding

Since roadside hawk is an actual species in Latin America, I might stick with calling our red-shouldered hawks by their own common name, even if they do tend to be on the roadside a lot! I was excited for a moment since I hadn't heard of a rare raptor in Florida.

Anti-trans legislation and public schools

But they're preventing that with this legislation.

/s, Florida is pulling so much shit right now too.

I consider myself a people, and I prefer my body jewelry to be gold if I can afford it. A few pieces are gold-colored anodized titanium (which are fading), but very prominent pieces are solid gold. I like yellow gold, not rose gold. I actually think titanium/"silver" looks more tacky than gold.

But that's just for pieces of jewelry that go into my body. For bracelets and such, I prefer brass, leather, and shades of brown. I don't wear necklaces.

Gold cars are disgusting though.

What made you choose your instance?

It was a battle between my queer identity and my biologist identity. For regular browsing and posting, science won out. But I have an account with blajah.zone too to discuss the queer agenda.

Almost to 260

Wow, that's impressive! I'm a hiker too, but I don't have the time to do that much hiking. Besides, I'm also looking for birds and other wildlife, so my 5 miles can take nearly 4 to 5 hours, hah.

There are many things you want to consider when identifying snakes, and it can become intuitive with practice

Oh yeah, camouflage for different purposes on different parts of the snake. Definitely a neat one to find.
