 Useless fact for the day:- Did you know that the word 'Plover' is derived from the Latin 'Pluvia' meaning rain, presumably because their migration corresponds with the arrival of seasonal rains. Now you know.

Jack o’ Lanterns originated in Ireland where people placed candles in hollowed-out turnips to keep away spirits and ghosts on the Samhain holiday.

Who knew?

The optimum depth of birdbath water, says the Audubon Society of America, is 2 and a half inches. Less water makes it difficult for birds to take a bath; more makes them afraid.

BTW.... I have heard that we Irish would see less of those ghosts & demons if we stayed away from the ''spirits''.
