 Trapped Ducklings Reunited With Mother

It was a long, traumatic tumble down into darkness for four ducklings who recently fell into a 12-foot storm drain at a Florida apartment complex. Hungry and helpless, the ducklings were stranded at the bottom of the drain for at least six hours and faced certain death by drowning. A compassionate passerby discovered these trapped ducklings and immediately called PETA.

 Imprecious Fingerprint Charm Jewelry (w. earring giveaway!)

Why is it that no matter how much jewelry a woman has, she can always find another pair of must have earrings, coveted necklace, or much needed bracelet to adorn her wrist? I wish I could answer that but I certainly fall into the category of always being able to find more jewelry to put on my wish list! Most recently, I received my Cascade Necklace from Imprecious that is not only stunning but incredibly personal since the 4 charms that hang from the chain are fingerprints from each member of our family. Whenever I wear it I’m complimented on its design but then when I tell admirers that the charms are actually my family’s prints, they are in awe and love to look closely at them.

 Scent-Marking Bobcat

When I spotted this bobcat quite a ways off, I immediately scouted the landscape for the best approach route — the “best” being the one that lets me get in camera range without scaring him off. Even though he could plainly see me no matter what I did, I didn’t want to approach upwind of him.

These days it seems like a lot of products and gifts are made to be disposable, or will become obsolete in a few years. You can spend $200 on a designer purse, but it will likely fall out of fashion next year. Or, you can spend $200 on the latest video game system, which will most likely be replaced by new and better technology in a couple of years.
