Coming back from vacation to some good news!

The first baby whale of the 2025-2026 North American right whale calving season was spotted Nov 28 near South Carolina.

Mom is Champagne (ID #3904) and its her 2nd documented calf. What joyful news for a species with 384 whales remaining.

cheap camera phone + shooting through window + lack of artistic talent = lousy photography. But I love seeing a cardinal couple at my feeder so it's beautiful to me!

Did you know elephants and manatees are related? These gentle giants share an ancient relative and interesting characteristics like marching molar teeth. Both need our protection today.
