Molly is back!


BIG thanks to Rhiannon for keeping an eye on the owl box! Molly is back in the box and is currently sitting on four eggs which she laid from July 6-14th. Here's the link in case you don't have it: http://www.ustream.tv/theowlbox#more

Parents beware - the chat windows are open to the public and aren't always appropriate. I haven't seen anything bad there but you never know. It is best to watch the owls full screen so that you can't even see the chats. Safety first! :)

Update

Hi everyone!
My apologies for not posting for the last couple of weeks. My laptop broke down right before I left for my trip to the East Coast. :( It's up and running again so I've been trying to get caught up after not having it for almost two weeks. I will be posting some new ideas for continued learning soon.
I hope that you are enjoying the summer and that you've been keeping your brain active too! I miss you all very much!

The fireworks in Washington, DC were fantastic!

Here I am with my sister and my nephews at the White House.
