Was noticing the Powers building lights go off around 11PM ish and go back on 5am ish, give or take a minute.  Goes on in stages, goes off all at once.

U for Umbrella bird.

This endangered species lives only in the Chocó rain forests of Ecuador and Colombia, where it makes vital contributions to the forests' health. All have an inflatable wattle on the neck, which serves to amplify their loud, booming calls. This wattle may reach a length of 35 cm (14 in) in the Long-wattled Umbrellabird, but it is smaller in the two remaining species, and covered in bare, bright red skin in the Bare-necked Umbrellabird. Females resemble males, but are noticeably smaller and have a reduced crest and wattle. 

GIANT EXTINCT STORK, really giant, just discovered

They're also calling it Marabou, oddly.

Still in 3rd....c'mon peeps...let's move it up to 1st.

Where did Hannah go? Anyone heard from her? She always had great snail stories!

I exchange email with her semi-regularly...she's out there!

I seriously learned a whole lot about snails from Hannah.  Glad you're still in touch with her Dale.  Please say hi to her from us the next time you "talk" to her.   

Yes dale, say hi from me too. She added fun to the KFC!

How about this one from Hannah & her snail!  Another 2005 greeting.

Where did Hannah go? Anyone heard from her? She always had great snail stories!

I said ewww then and I'll say ewww now but a very nice greeting Mirta! She loves her arachnids.

No wonder Beauty can see KP and KP can see Beauty. What a great view and a beautiful picture. Thanks Jim for posting. We have eyes at KP.
