...And after April, when May follows,
And the whitethroat builds, and all the swallows!
Hark, where my blossomed pear-tree in the hedge
Leans to the field and scatters on the clover
Blossoms and dewdrops—at the bent spray's edge—
That's the wise thrush; he sings each song twice over,
Lest you should think he never could recapture
The first fine careless rapture!...

~~ Robert Browning, "Home Thoughts, From Abroad"

It's

Rhino Day!

The rhinoceros is between 35-65 million years old. They used to live in North America, but are now only found in Asia/Africa - and in zoos. They have poor eyesight, but a sharp sense of hearing and smell - and they can run up to 35 m.p.h. Their diet is made up of bulbs, grass and leaves, and they use their horns to help gather food. These horns grow about 1 inch a year and are more valuable than gold. They are sold for $30,000/pound.

Happy Save a Rhino Day!

I guess is my graphic also exploded. (I wish Google would indicate which images are perishable.) I presume they shutdown if they have too many hits. Whoops, I just checked--it's back up again. (Some part of the above is inoperable.)

Good afternoon, Darks.

My brain is also a sieve ..... and I don’t know what Arathosthenes is. ;^ )

I guess that fell out with all the other stuff.

Hope you are having a great May Day!

Save a Rhino today!
