There’s a tradition in my family that your grandmother makes you a quilt when you turn 13; my great aunt stepped in and made me one after my grandmother died. I was always touched by that and feel strongly that “make a quilt for his 13th birthday” is one of my duties as “honorary auntie” for my late friend’s son.

Are you aware of owls? It’s International Owl Awareness Day and here are a few of my favourites: the burrowing owl who appears to be wearing pantaloons, the screech owl and the snowy owl, official bird of Quebec.

As soon as I heard Joe Nickell had a new proposed ID for the I KNEW it was going to be an owl. It’s at least a this time and this hypothesis is better than some — looking at you itinerant baby Moose and suitless mer-Ape — but, meh, I’m not sold.

From the Natural Resources Council of Maine:

"Cool Fact: The hoot of a Snowy Owl is hardly the clear, echoing “who, who, who” that most people think of when they think of an owl hoot. Instead, Snowies give low, powerful hoots, with a raspy quality to them, and though it’s typically made by the male, females can hoot as well."
