Hurray! Some good news for bees at last. Our new government has followed the science, and refused the application by sugar beet farmers to use banned neonicotinoid pesticides.

Pine Grosbeak are the ultimate Christmas bird in northern areas. They show up for snowtime, like brightly-coloured gifts as musical tree toppers. #birds

My daughter was one of almost 400 tuba players gathered at the Kauffman Center for A Tuba Christmas.
It was beautiful.

On this day in 1995, Elsie Knott died.
She was the first elected female First Nations chief in Canada after the 1951 amendment to the Indian Act.
She led her First Nation for a decade and a half and became known for her activism.
Let's learn about her :)

We had hundreds of Bohemian Waxwings in the yard today feeding on mountain ash berries and samaras from the ash trees.
Quite an experience on a perfect winter day!
