Sleepy owl found resting among items on a New York antique store shelf Shoppers in upstate New York month turned up a rare find while perusing a local antique store this month: a live owl resting peacefully among items on a shelf.

This isn't really important, what with the war and all, but it did make me feel a little better and maybe it will make you feel better too

The 1930s were a heyday of #nationalpark proposals, but the vast majority of them didn't make the grade. A niche group of scholars investigate why. Here's my story about beautiful places in #Arizona that never became parks. www.arizonahighways.com/article/land...

Oregon Zoo welcomes first five California condor eggs of the year The Oregon Zoo has announced that the first five condor eggs of the year have arrived.

Speaking of condors, we may not have them anymore free flying in Oregon (hopefully we will again soon), but Oregon Zoo is one of the most important facilities for California condor reintroduction.

The first five eggs of the year have arrived.
