It has been another terrible week for weather and it looks like things aren’t going to get better any time soon. Now that Hurricane Harvey has finally moved on, the people in south eastern Texas are faced with picking up the pieces the hurricane left behind. And now, there is another hurricane. This one is named Irma. I would like to dedicate this week’s blog to everyone affected by this hurricane. Irma has spent the last few days in the Caribbean. Many countries have been hit by this hurricane. People in Antigua, Barbuda, St Martin, St Maarten, Anguilla, St Barts, US Virgin Islands, British Virgin Islands, Puerto Rico, Dominican Republic, Haiti, and the Turks and Caicos Islands have all been affected by this storm and the damage has been devistating. As I write this, Irma is expected to make landfall in Florida within a few hours. My thoughts are with you all. I thought it would be nice to research some bats that live in the Caribbean. There are a lot of cute ones! The Bahaman funnel-eared bat is absolutely adorable! They are part of the family Natalidae and are endemic to the Bahamas. The Bahaman funnel-eared bat was discovered in 1903 and is listed as near threatened. These bats are small, have long tails, big ears, and reddish or chestnut brown fur. Their […]

Sadly, school starts on the 28th this year, which means I only have one more week of vacation to enjoy. I hope it’s a good one! This past week has been a difficult one for all of humanity. I am at a loss of what to say about what has been happening in the world, except to say that my thoughts are with everyone who has been affected by the events of the past week. A lot of people have been quoting the wisdom of great people like Mr. Nelson Mandela. I would like to remind everyone of the wisdom of Mr. A. A. Milne. He was the author of the Winnie the Pooh books and I believe that he also had a lot to say about peacefully living with others. One of my favorite quotes is from little Eeyore. He said, “a little consideration, a little thought for others, makes all the difference.” If people could just try to be a little more considerate of other people, maybe this week will be a better one. So, what do you all say? Let’s all make this coming week the spectacular week that it has the potential to be. Let us be kind and considerate and caring toward other people. Please.
