Just in case the owners of the 2 photos think I am using their photos to defame others, may I add this post is a result of someone who called me a "nut case" and this is my way of answering such "defamation" (of me). I love nuts. In fact, if I could, I would eat more of them for they are delicious, provides lots of good nutrition and if you eat them, help keep you healthy.

Secretary Bird's Facts and Figures

The scientific name for Secretary Bird is Sagittarius serpentarius. It is a large, mostly terrestrial (mostly land-based) bird of prey (birds that eat other birds or animals) found all over Africa. Its habitat is the open savannas of the sub-Sahara (desert). The Secretary Bird is used in the official emblem of 2 African countries - Sudan and South Africa. The Secretary Bird is part of the order of Falconiformes, it is different enough from others like the kites, buzzards, vultures, and harriers that it is put into its own order "Sagittariidae".

Its height is about 4 feet (1.3 meter) which makes the Secretary Bird almost as tall as a grown human. Hah, I can imagine the Secretary Bird sitting next to Sarah assisting her in her daily work.

Happy birthday Sarah. May you have a Secretary Bird for your birthday to assist you in your work which hopefully will lighten your burden.

Solar-baked bread birthday present for Mr. Fam

Hi Fam,

Happy birthday. Hope you enjoy this yummy solar-baked bread. It is done without having to burn gas or coal nor use electricity, all of which generate eventually green house gases which, in addition to adding to air pollution, also lead to global warming.
