So I thought the end of the year should involve otters at play. I have seen otters both in the wild and in captivity and no matter where I encounter them they are having fun. Otters take every day tasks and make it look joyful. I hope that I have done the same for you by sharing things that have…

I am very uncomfortable with being in the air too high. Even with a railing I am afraid to look over the edge of tall structures. Climbing up stairs somewhat makes me nervous.

I have always been awed by large birds of prey. Their skill, dexterity, and strength are incredible. So when I found this live feed of bald eagles from the Channel Islands National Park in California I thought I should share the joy. The cam is facing the nest of a bald eagle with two eggs.

Right now as I see my weight increase abit I definitely wish that I could have my weight taken on Mars. Did you know that Mars has less gravitational pull on objects than the Earth? I’m not sure that I know a great deal about Mars. Luckily for all of us NASA has created a 3D model of Mars…

I love to see animals in their native habitat. I just fascinated by the way they interact and communicate. Right now I can’t really get out and do as much of that as I would like. Today’s discovery gives me a chance to view giraffes and rhinos at the San Diego Zoo. Obviously they are not in their natural habitat,…
