From a Place in My Garden: When the Wood Thrush Sings

You can hear the beautiful song of the wood thrush here.

Scientists studying hydrothermal vents, those underwater geysers that are home to bizarre geological structures and unique marine species, have discovered something all too familiar: pollution. Instead, they traced the lead to an Australian lead mine thousands of miles away. I guess we can speculate that this is yet another piece of evidence...
