How Did T-Rex Lose Its Arms?

I don’t know about keen, but I’m very keen on science and I really enjoyed this one. Hope you enjoy it too!

Tom didn’t care. He’d go sit on the boat in the rain. He says, “It’s a boat. It’s … Continue reading 2018 BOATING SEASON BEGINS – BY ELLIN CURLEY

BIRDS IN BLACK & WHITE – Marilyn Armstrong

Cee’s Black & White Photo Challenge: Bird Birds look either great or awful in black & white. Much depends on the background. If it's busy with trees and all sorts of other jungle, it can be very difficult. So I went for the simplest construction -- birds against the plainest background I could find.
