"Alright...who dropped us in the paint cans?"  Actually, jf - they're beautiful!  I love the middle one's color the most.

Finn - enjoyed the "bird olympics" from Audubon.  I had to look up what a Bar-Tailed Godwit was though.  :D

Good job everyone!

Finn thanks for posting that cool Audubon link.  Maybe that's why Shaun White lost!  :D

That video is real cute, jf.  thanks! He/she sure likes those raspberries!  :D

Did you know that fleas can jump up to 200 times their height? This is equivalent to a man jumping the Empire State Building in New York.

Because beavers' teeth never stop growing, they must constantly gnaw on objects to keep them at a manageable length. Their teeth would eventually grow into their brain if they didn't maintain them. 

Butterflies have two compound eyes consisting of thousands of lenses, yet they can only see the colors red, green and yellow.

You can tell a turtle's gender by the noise it makes. Males grunt and females hiss.

Dogs' nose prints are as unique as human fingerprints and can be used to identify them.

Hummingbirds are the only birds that can fly backwards and their wings can beat at up to 80 times per second.

And here's a few fun facts and some music:
