"According to the latest count of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service's Daily Collection Report (PDF), only about 4,100 birds, 670 turtles, 70 sea mammals, and 1 snake have died in the Gulf since April 20 (assuming 50 percent mortality of live animals)."'Death Gyre' in the Gulf | MNN - Mother Nature Network

I'm thinking about making a soap and lotion for my thamnophis buddies I'll call it Garter Musk. Though, it won't be the kind of musk that comes from a garters' backside... I'll have to wait until I get my shipment of scents next month to see what I come up with. I shall have fun making Garter musk lotion and wearing it to my therapist... When I get compliments on it, I'll happily reply that it was inspired by garter snake musk.

Chantel
have you ever read the novel "Perfume" by Patrick Suskind?
if you are into making scents, you ought to enjoy that one
it's on my list of top favourite novels of all times

No, I haven't read it. I'll have to find it at the library or order it next time I have some spare money after ordering. I'll write it down. Thanks.

I'm not sure if Spring has really sprung but today I saw hundreds of geese and ducks headed North. We are also getting the robins back.
They are usually the best predictors of the seasons.

I had already responded to that post Steve, but naturally my post doesn't exist anymore.

Anyway, I don't agree with that. They don't predict anything, they just respond. Robins can be seen in my area all winter long any time the overnight lows are above freezing, and the ground is well thawed. In fact, there's not a lot of them, but they are around today. If that was an indication of what is coming, then they are flat out wrong.

An arctic air mass is dropping down from Canada as we speak. The city is bracing for a winter storm, sanding/deicing trucks are getting ready, etc. Record breaking cold and significant snowfall is expected Wed and Thurs down to sea level.

Chantel, I think you'll get it too this time around.

In that case, please disregard my post as I don't know what I'm talking about.
