Animal of the Day!
Southern Ground Hornbill (Bucorvus leadbeateri)
(Photo by Andy Boyce)
Conservation Status- Vulnerable
Habitat- Central Africa; Southern Africa
Size (Weight/Length)- 6 kg; 130 cm
Diet- Small mammals; Reptiles; Amphibians; Fruits; Insects
Cool Facts- Being the size of a turkey, the southern ground hornbill is the world’s largest hornbill. While males and females are similar in size, only the male sports the brilliant red skin on their throat while the female’s throat is more indigo. Southern ground hornbills will eat any animal that is smaller than themselves, ranging from bullfrogs to small monitor lizards to hares. These hornbills live in small, family oriented flocks. Adult offspring will stay with their parents for up to ten years, helping to raise their younger siblings. By learning how to parent their siblings, southern ground hornbills are much more successful at raising their own babies throughout their sixty year lifespan.
Rating- 12/10 (Extremely successful captive breeding programs.)

On August 16, 1928, with air conditioning still years away, the mercury jumped 5 degrees an hour to 86 Fahrenheit, resulting in the death of one person. These boys found a remedy by diving into the East River at the foot of East 21st Street.

Elvis Presley changed the world.
He changed my world.
Today is bittersweet. We want to love and remember and honor this larger-than-life man (because, yes, he was only a man) but he was also so much more. This day marks the end of an extraordinary life, in a tragic and lonely way. I wish I could explain to the world just how much pain this man must have been in day in and day out and yet he still continued to show up for his family, friends, and fans until the day he died.
Something that hurts me the most is how much suffering he experienced that so many never knew or understood. He wasn’t just some strung out rockstar who died from drug abuse, which has been the picture painted for so long—he was a wildly talented man who’s body betrayed him in a laundry list of ways. (If you haven’t read Elvis: Destined to Die Young, I highly recommend it if you’re trying to understand more of what was going on with the perfect storm of the decline of his health.)
There are so many things I could say, but others have said so much and so eloquently today, I won’t go crazy. I’ll just say I love him wholeheartedly and completely, imperfections and all. He was complex and amazing and infuriating and gorgeous. He’s done amazing things for this world and is connecting people and creating communities to this day, which is fucking incredible, 46 years after he left this world.
And if that’s not legacy and immortality, I don’t know what is. 💗
#love you e#always and forever#and this community 💗#elvis presley#elvis#if you’re looking for trouble#you came to the right place#august 16
