Birdies Wednesday!

I took this picture and it sparkles me to ask this. How does a bird sit on a high-voltage power lines without getting electrocuted?

Without going into scientific details, here is the simplest answer I found. For the bird to get electrocuted it must be touching two wires. Once the bird touches the two wires it completes an electrical circuit in this case it would be classified as a short circuit and the voltage and current run through the bird.

There you have it. Time for softies - Happy Wednesday!

A Tale of Honeybee and a Human

A Human was doing her regular weekend runs. Until one Sunday morning, as she was running she came upon a Little Bee. She stopped and started the conversation.

Human: Little Bee, Little Bee - why are you so busy? 

Little Bee: I'm busy collecting nectar of these beautiful nasturtium flowers.

Human: Right, of course. If you don't mind, may I photo and video you while you're collecting nectar.

Little Bee: Not at all! Please share it with the human and let the world know that we're hard working creatures and we make sweet honey for them to eat. So "Save the honeybees!".

Human: Will do! And look out for video and photo.

And of they're doing their little things. Here is a picture of the Little Bee.

Here are some busy bee softies.

A full day of activities

What do you have in mind? How about let's start the day with a nice cup of strong Russian tea just to wake myself up, two slices of toasted bread with two spoonfuls of raspberry jam, follow by read a cheesy mystery novel, a nice walk to an art gallery would be lovely too or do something good to the environment…such as "Save the Planet!" or "Stop Global Warming!".
