Mixed media artistic librarian living silently in a cacaphony of sound. Interests include history ranging from the ancient Americas to ancient Central Asia and horse domestication. I have had T1D since 1984 and am autistic.

  1. I believe that was my point in talking about having raised a kid to understand the larger world rather than just what she learned in school. That said, a lot of parents don't have that ability for many reasons. My original comment to this thread was facetious, and I graduated a bit before 95.

  3. Osprey (Pandion haliaetus): These raptors have eyesight that is adapted to spotting underwater objects from the air, useful when 99% of its diet is fish. With a wingspan of 180cm (71in) this bird is found in all continents (except Antarctica). #osprey #ospreys #fishhawk #raptor #raptors #birds #bird
