      NASA just announced that #Voyager 1 will reach 1 light-day from Earth at 12:16:07 a.m. CST on November 18, 2026. At that point, any signal we send to the spacecraft will take 24 hours to reach it. (2 days before my birthday!)

            Loons at Stormy Lake put on a show this week. Brought some diversions from the trauma of dad passing. Several days ago an eagle dive bombed a loon with young ones. Because of the young ones they won't dive and leave them unprotected and the eagle caught a loon. It was too heavy to lift so it was seen swimming across the lake, almost a mile, dragging it in the water. Amazing!

                @wissox83 It is such a struggle with life and death in the animal world. I cringe when I see the fox with a lizard, but a road runner with a snake makes me happy, now a LOON!! That was something to see.

                      @wissox83 I never pass up a Planet Earth series by Sir David, or any of the others he has done.

                        Last year we had a robin drop one egg in a wren's nest. It stayed there until the others had hatched and I think she abandoned it for a racoon to find it. I only see robins during migration, and it's only for a couple of days at the most. In Minnesota when you saw a robin it meant spring was here. Anybody else have local tall tales?
