Lemurs Go Away Analysis

Hi guys! This past weekend we were graced with a much needed fall break. After a few weeks of constant studying, it was nice to have a four day weekend to sit back and relax. After my two tests on Friday I drove seven hours to meet my dad and my girlfriend's dad in Pittsfield Illinois for a few day hunting trip at a lease that my dad has. It was a long drive, but it was worth it when I arrived to a 16oz prime rib at one of my favorite restaurants, the Red Dome. Unfortunately the corn and soybeans had not yet been cut around our farm so we did not see as many deer as usual, but we still had fun and relaxed for a few days.

On a happier not the Quaker Parrot I wrote about on my first blog post came back in today to have one of his sets of hobbles removed, except this time he didn't need a new pair. Here are some pictures of him and his brother, as you can see he has sure grown

Evolution is a change in genes of a population over time. Speciation is a process of gene changes which causes one population to become two unique populations. Speciation can be illustrated using the Lemurs of Madagascar as an example. Evidence suggests that Lemurs originated in Africa before separating to Madagascar where they then underwent speciation and became a now minimum of 50 species of lemur (Berkeley, 2015). This occurred as previous to the continental drift Madagascar was attached to Africa and therefore did not move a far distance away. Whilst there is no evidence which suggests that lemurs were on Madagascar before the separation there is some which represents that a lemur travelled to the island after

I hope things are doing a little better for you there in California. I know that your visit is coming to an end and that you will be heading out in a few days. Things have been super busy over here. This morning they had a father and son car building event at the church and took David. It is like the boy scouts and it is making a car out of wood. Well, are car is not looking so good but we have three weeks to build it before they have the race. I will send you a picture of our final creation that will hopefully resemble a car when we get done with it. Caitlyn started school on Friday and I took her out to ice cream the night before to give her a pep talk for the new semester. Lastly, my Carla and I just got back from a nice dinner... we celebrated our two month wedding

Birds have fascinated people for years. Whether it's their striking color, lovely songs, care for their young, or ( most often ) their ability to fly. Not all birds however fall into each one of these catergories. One species, for example, are the owls. Owls are not the brightest color and don't have as lovely songs as a canary. They are different from many birds including other birds of prey. To look at all these wonderful owls would take more than a few pages so we will look at one, the Barn Owl.

Thanks there Mary, we’ll just see what happens! Hope today is a nifty one, I went to Rice’s this morning and it was a bit chilly, no bike riding today. Also I thought Chrissy was coming back today, it’s not till next Tuesday. What a tragedy to have to be in Hawaii for over 2 weeks lol. Off for more fun talk to you later

My hypothesis was that, “If the Ring Tailed Lemur spends a third of their time on the ground foraging for food, then if we study them for an hour in captivity, they should spend approximately the same amount of time foraging for food.” This hypothesis was proven correct by the data of the Ring Tailed Lemurs at the Bronx Zoo. The lemurs at the zoo spent around one third of the time on the ground. The amount of time that the lemurs spent on the ground was 33% of the time that the lemurs were on the ground. In the Bronx Zoo the lemurs spent thirteen thirty sixths of their time which is 36% of their time on the ground. Even in captivity the Ring Tailed Lemurs spent most of the time in the trees and less time on the ground foraging for food.

Hey Everyone! I have been away for several days! Life has been busy, and stressful. However Its getting better. I had a nice relaxing weekend. I missed writing posts! This last weekend I went bowing with some friends, and then went shopping. Of course I went to Lush and bought a few things! My love for Lush is real. I posted a YouTube video of what I bought for my last two Lush visits. Recently I have been loving their Fresh Face Masks! Tonight I am going to use one!

As a result, avian species with reversed sex roles and duties offer a unique avenue for examining the relationship between sex ratios, mating systems, and parental investment. Species with female-biased ASR demonstrate conventional sex roles while those with male-biased ASR exhibit reversed sex roles. In the northern flicker (Colaptes auratus), a migratory woodpecker which exhibits a culture of partially reversed sex roles, males have been found to care for a greater period of time than females. In a study by Gow and Wiebe (2014), males cared for 16 days on average while females cared for their offspring for an average of 12. In total, one-third of females abandoned the brood before fledgling independence, whereas no males left their young. Provision and feeding rates were found to be highly correlated; in addition to age, feeding rates increased with length of care. The social context, as reflected in the ASR, clearly results in sex-specific differences in the form of biparental

My aim was to observe the natural habits of a wild Crimson Rosella. Some more specific focuses being on what it eats, how it finds food, how they travel (whether it travels alone or in flocks) and also to gain some insight on some of its social habits.

Chapter six of Tracking The Vanishing Frogs talks about frogs and sunbathing. It also talks about the UVB theory. Mountain yellow legged frogs can sometimes be seen sunbathing in Palm Springs , California. Ultraviolet radiation is light emitted by the sun. Another type is called uvb. It can be deadly. It is slowly beginning to reach earths surface as the ozone layer in the stratosphere thins. CFCs cause damage to the ozone layer. UVB causes skin cancer , cataracts and can weaken the immune system in humans. When it was found that Cascade frogs were dying they began to look for a reason why. After a while they decide to see if it was linked to UVB.

The fish and crickets are still moving. The plants look a bit unhealthy but otherwise fine. The flowers are beginning to bloom.

Not all the birds are to be trusted, and there are other spies more evil than they are here” (Tolkien 183). Consequently Sam “looked up into the pale sky, fearing to see hawks or eagles hovering over them with bright unfriendly eyes” (Tolkien 184). Though The Hobbit showed a second depiction of crows and ravens; they are viewed as friendly, helpful and proven as trustworthy animals to the protagonists such as Roäc the raven. On some occasions they spoke with the dwarves and Bilbo without presenting a potential threat to them. However, Gandalf and Aragorn still carry their suspicions of birds and beasts whenever they are traveling across Middle Earth. Since ravens and crows are actually seen to play a good and evil role through the story due to their ability to collect information and bring news to their allies, it opens to the possibility they are being unknowingly exploited when used for evil purposes. Birds who are allied with dwarves further suggest that the crebains serving Saruman were once a normal race of crows who lost their way of life and honor by having their minds corrupted through persuasion.

Living in the suburbs makes one vulnerable to the massive squirrel population. We see them leaping from tree to tree. As we are driving out of the neighborhood and the poor squirrel seems undecided whether to keep going across street or go to back, we unintentionally crush it. I believe I have a phobia for squirrels. I feel so helpless when I see them. I fear they will attack and bite me. They seem so hungry, but they look like they are eating very well. I hear they say squirrels eat nuts, - “yeah right “, well they must be eating something more because they look so plump. Where do they live or shall I ask where do they make their homes? I can’t imagine why anyone would want to keep one as a pet, when they look and
