This is as good as the discovery some years back that Cornish ducks make more relaxed sounds than London ones. The Cockney quack is like a shout, whereas the Cornish version is more of a giggle.

New AI tool can track dolphins by their 'regional accents'
The tool can be helped to identify dolphin species and to study the impact human activities, like fishing, have on the aquatic mammals.

I'm once again asking for a show where a librarian, a bookseller, and a carpenter travel around helping people manage their out-of-control book collections. Discuss their sentimental value, their rarity, their histories, then build amazing book nooks and shelves and little libraries to organize them

Ditto what Kevin says. It gets harder and harder for small independent publishers to find bookshelf space. 🙏
Please, if you are able, support Indy publishers.

For lovers of snow ❄️ I give you the greatest snow ball fight in history. In 1854 300 people including stock brokers went into snowy battle at Liverpool’s Exhange. The Liverpool Mercury reported “Hats flew away, By the force of the ball, From heads that were grey, Or with no hair at all”.
