We had a dose of winter last week. It stopped traffic, broke water mains, and confused our poor birdlife. There was a hummingbird on the news rescued by a young boy after its wings froze. Thankfully, it made a full recovery. If you have feeders, there are many ways to keep them warm through cold …

Apocalyptic Conditions Worldwide The world as we know it is changing at a pace we're strained to keep up with, much less change.
