This was an interesting read. I've encountered the term "murder of crows" before, but never really thought about the origin of this term. It makes some sense.
I love crows. They're some of my favorite birds. Where I live, we have two ...

Cultivating Pollinators: How To Grow A Bee Friendly Garden:
I agree that bees are sometimes maligned; when I've been stung, it's generally been by yellow-jacket wasps, not honeybees, and I don't know anyone who has been stung by a bumblebee. I love planting gardens to attract pollinators. There are so ...

Jersey Devil: Duck, Dragon, Demon, Religious Politics, Unknown Beast, Bat or Owl?

That's such an honour though, having a fox's earth in your garden.

Plastic Free Glass Drinking Straws
It looks like it would be fun to drink from these straws. Plus you don't have to worry about all the nasty chemicals found in plastic.

Poem--An Old Farmhouse
Lovely story and poem of the old farm house, MaxReily. I have not had the pleasure of traveling by train but would definitely enjoy it, I think.

Jersey Devil: Duck, Dragon, Demon, Religious Politics, Unknown Beast, Bat or Owl?
Jo, I've seen more foxes since I've lived here than I ever did when I lived in the country (although I saw the damage to the hen houses when living on a farm). One of the vixens built her earth in my back garden, and had her cub there. She ...

Victorian Women
Thank you for giving us an overall picture of the life of Victorian women. In many ways life is so much better for us, at least in this country. In other countries and even in pockets here, not much has improved.
