Tales of mermaids have been around for centuries, and form a large part of seafaring lore, especially round the coastal areas of Britain such as Cornwall, and the Northern Isles of Scotland. Their sighting was thought to be a bad omen, foretelling storms and rough seas. There are numerous folk tales describing their interaction with humans.
The Question:
Freedom's Colors| Red is for Bravery; blood shed in sacrifice. Freedom came with lives the price. White is for Liberty; freedom's purity. Life be free from God's decree. Blue is for Justice; as vast as the sky. Over freedom's land to occupy. |
Flamingos have 12 to 16 tail feathers.
The word flamingo is most likely derived from the Latin, flamma, flame.
Flamingos molt (shed and replace) their wing and body feathers at irregular intervals ranging from twice a year to once every two years. Flamingo feathers lose their color once they have been molted / discarded by the bird.

Just returned from the ARK (Animal Rehabilitation Keep) in Port Aransas, TX . Here I am feeding Uno, the Loggerhead Turtle we found in the surf on May 1. He's eating, gaining weight and doing well. He should get to be released soon. Visit the Turtle Rescue Section of my Etsy shop where half the proceeds go to the ARK to help with costs of Sea Turtle rehab.
I admit it, I'm addicted to warm, fudgy brownies.
Its a beautiful morning on
