Marty’s photo of the day #3237: Before digital became popular, serious photographers commonly went through a black and white phase, because it was cool and artsy. The only problem was when you saw something with amazing colors you’d be stuck with black & white film in your camera. I went through my black and white […]

Marty’s photo of the day #3233: “So Donald Trump has now established that any American can say anything, no matter how dangerous, and claim it was ‘sarcasm’ if it comes back to bite them in the ass. He’s a hoot!” (Long-eared owl, photographed in Montana.)
Marty’s photo of the day #3232: Today we travel to Spain—for all the people who’ve always wanted to know what the back of a Spanish Ibex’s head looks like.
Marty’s photo of the day #3231: Yesterday was a busy day! Martyman was at the local hospital entertaining patients, and the Republican Jesus was at the bowling alley and nail salon shooting coronavirus. Unfortunately, both are now convinced that they caught COVID-19. Fortunately, they both also saw Donald Trump on the television, getting great ratings […]
Marty’s photo of the day #3229: Happy Earth Day! Because human activities have taken a COVID-19 break, the planet actually is enjoying one of its better Earth Days. Since I’m an environmental college speaker, Earth Week is traditionally my biggest week for bookings of the year. This time my entire week was wiped out. Tonight […]
Marty’s photo of the day #3227: Here’s a photo to brighten up your Monday. This is an extreme close-up of tundra plant life, photographed in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge.

Marty’s photo of the day #3226: “Let me get this straight. . . . You protested in mass at Michigan’s State Capitol, chanting ‘Lock her up!’ because Governor Gretchen Whitmer was trying to save your sorry ass?

Sometimes I wonder if I use the word “fucking” too much in my posts. I don’t fucking think so, but what the fuck, I probably should fucking ask: Do you think I use fucking too fucking much? I mean, it’s a fucking good word with no fucking reason to be offended by it. Even evangelicals […]
Marty’s photo of the day #3225: I’ve never been very good at predicting when an opossum will jump onto my back. Opossums happen!
Marty’s photo of the day #3224: Where I live in Montana, the animals enjoyed a good winter. Deb and I have been regularly seeing a moose on our evening walks, along with lots of deer. Also, every morning on my bike ride I see between twenty and thirty deer, and this morning I saw another […]
Marty’s photo of the day #3223: I took this photo roughly ten years ago. Do you know how difficult it is to hold a mess of baby rainbow boas in one hand, a camera in the other, focus, and do it all while not getting bit? This was one of Eve’s last litters before we […]
DONALD TRUMP KILLS PUPPIES! Now that Trump has ordered that his name be printed on the COVID-19 stimulus checks, those checks will be delayed to millions of people who need them now. This is the big news of the day. No one is surprised by Trump’s narcissistic move and, of course, his administration will lie […]
Marty’s photo of the day #3222: This is conehead katydid, photographed in the Amazon Rainforest of Peru.
Here’s a perfect example of what is so fucking wrong with conservative Republicans: Millions of them are terrified that some poor person will get some government benefit that they don’t deserve. Such talk is standard on Fox News. Yet Judy Kudlow, the wife of Donald Trump’s top economic advisor Larry Kudlow, very publicly applied for […]
