When Did Night Driving Get Tricky?

Our clocks fell back on November 1st, and suddenly your drive home from work or from dinner happens in the dark.

The Benefits of Full Body LED Light Therapy

Peace River Audubon Society (PRAS)

This is a Blue-gray Gnatcatcher. It is a very small bird at only 4.5” long. Its long tail catches your eye with its white outer feathers and near constant motion. It also sports a white eye-ring.
