I’m blessed to live in an area where most people have tall cedar fences and there are lots of mature trees, but when I installed a gurgling fountain in my backyard, I found it really improved the soundscape.
And when there’s birds chirping it’s heaven 😃

🇨🇦 🇨🇦 🇨🇦 Hello Canadians looking for Canadian news (especially if you’ve been dependent on Facebook or Instagram links).
CBC has created an index of Canadian news media which is searchable by location. It brings up an interesting pot-pourri of digital, tv and radio sources although you can search for just one. There’s a French version as well.
I’ve already discovered some new (to me) small newspapers from nearby regions 😃

The one that gave me the jeebies was the granddad that died, but refused to be go quietly. He started rotting in front of the family and arguing that he didn't want to go.

The first TV show that legitimately terrified me?
It was the mid ‘60s and I was 11 years old. Late at night I crept near my parents’ room to secretly watch their TV show and saw a man peeling back the skin on his arm only to find out that it was full of wires and metal and that he wasn’t “real” 😱 For years I’d wonder how I’d even know if there were bionic beings walking around!
For image see:

Today I learned about Earth Overshoot Day which is the day in a given year when “the world as a whole is exceeding its renewable biocapacity” (see @W_Lucht )
For the 🌍 that day falls on August 2nd. For 🇨🇦 it’s a shocking March 13th. March 13th! Let that sink in.
I think we Canadians need to do more. And quickly. There’s no time to lose.
Great 🇨🇦 info here -
