Wildlife research is conducted to learn information about a particular species. Where does it live? What does it eat? What is its breeding chronology? What are its habits?[…]
Change is inevitable in coastal marsh.
The tide gives when it rises and takes away when it falls.
Land piles up in some places while washing away in others.

After the stomping the Saints put on Detroit in the Dome, we were seriously pumped for the match in San Francisco the following week. For the occasion, Doc even installed an even wider screen TV in his Venice houseboat.[…]
My butt hurt and my back ached. For several hours I’d been sitting against a small holly tree watching a glade filled with rubs.[…]
Evil exists.
