I don’t know much about bats (other than they are insufferably cute) but all the freeway overpasses up Hwy 5 in California are heavily populated with cliff swallow nests every Spring. CalTrans waits until nesting season is over and then washes them all off. The next year the swallows build them back again.
Assigned books were a bore. Fortunately my schools never had any truck with summer reading list nonsense so one never got in the way of my reading what the heck I wanted.
Every book my teachers wanted me to read I found tedious and not worth the paper it was written on. Shakespeare and GB Shaw I enjoyed but the rest? Overrated twaddle. Me for non-fiction.
The increase in global population is due entirely to extended life spans, not birth rate. And if you look at all the alarmists about overpopulation they all live in N.America and Europe. What they really mean is that the world has too many people who don’t look like them. Racisim, pure and simple.
My late wife and I were both skilled cooks but were incompatible in the kitchen. Whichever one cooked, the other went into the living room and read or watched TV.
