Food Meme
This food meme has been making its rounds, and although I've got a couple of posts percolating right now I thought I'd throw this out for public consumption (Yeah it was intended). I picked it up from Prairie Ice, but there are others who did it, such as Patrick over at the Hawkowl's Nest. I'm

Something light
I do have a more serious matter to blog on, but I'm still trying to wrap my head around that potential post, so in the mean time here's an interesting web page I came across (via BBC news). The World Name Profiler is a cool little ap that if you plug a surname into it,

This ain’t Philadelphia
I'm finding it very difficult to stay away. One thing I've discovered about not blogging is that I enjoy blogging. I also blog in my head all the time. A blizzard in August? Well I'd write it like this. Travis' first day of school? Hasn't happened yet because of a persistent sore throat? But I'd

So long, and thanks for the fish

Environment Canada needs your help.

Sometime back, when I first received a call from them asking what the weather was like here I jokingly blogged that I thought it was more scientific than that. But kidding aside, they are

Another book/iPod giveaway
While you're busy heading over to 10,000 Birds trying to win one of the ten copies of Smithsonian Guide to the Birds of North America or the iPod that they're giving away, you might as well head to Naturalist Notebook. Summer is also giving away a copy of the book and an iPod. And all

Head south!
If you're tired of all of this northern hemisphere blogging, why not visit Birding in the Falkland Islands, a blog filled with great photos of fantastic southern bird species, and the occasional Southern Right and Sei Whales. Well worth the trip. I know John will recognize those birds. Sigh, time for another trip to the

Well, I see by the clock on the wall…
Or rather the button on my sidebar (courtesy of Blogoversary) that as of today I've been blogging here on the House for three long years. Where does the time go? Looking back it seems to have been a fairly uneventful year, although the highlight of the year was a trip home to Roblin with Hilary
