‘I Just Need the Comfort’: Processed Foods Make a Pandemic Comeback
Shoppers, moved by nostalgia and hunting for longer shelf lives, are returning to old standbys like Chef Boyardee and Campbell’s soup.

Have a Seat
Although wet in the rain, it still seemed inviting at a cemetery in Manchester By the Sea. Checkers anyone?


Two Blue Herons and an Egret
A pair of Great Blue Herons joined the neighborhood egret for a meal recently. They appeared to be cautiously accepting of each other as they enjoyed marsh treats. After a little while, two additional egrets joined the fun. The five of them provided us with an airshow and several minutes of entertainment. So happy to see so many signs of spring popping up! It gives me hope for a light at the end of this tunnel.
I Hate That Former Pats Tight End @jwiggs85 Used Carol 🤬 Baskins To Represent Gloucester

Otherwise this is pretty accurate.
I think creating a wish list like Carl Mckay-Stratton did off local restaurant items when everything opens up is brilliant!

Create your list and tag me on Facebook and we will discuss on the next podcast.
Carl’s list has me drooling.

BE PREPARED TO BE GROSSED OUT- SNOWY OWL PUKING A GINORMOUS PELLET – PART THREE: A SNOWY OWL COMES TO CAPE ANN
Casting a pellet is a totally normal thing that Snowy Owls, and all owls do. You may even have dissected a pellet in biology class. I just had no idea until seeing Snowy do this that they could be so enormous!
You can view the first three episodes here: Snowy Owl Film Project. All five will eventually be found on this page. Almost finished with Part Four: Snowy Owl Takes a Bath 🙂
A Snowy Owl Comes to Cape Ann
Part Three: Snowy Owl Casts a Pellet
Once or twice a day an owl casts, or regurgitates, a pellet, which is a mass of undigested parts of the bird’s food. Pellets form after an owl has fed. The owl often casts a pellet, and goes poop, shortly before heading out to hunt.
Pellets contain sharp-edged bones and teeth that could damage the bird’s lower digestive tract. Its presence prevents the owl from swallowing fresh prey.

The hand sanitizer dispenser we all need.

Only way to improve upon it would be to fill it with Ryan and Wood hand sanitizer.
