We came across this window washer shaking it while he worked. It looked like he was having fun and we like fun!

I’ve posted previously about the Timberlake Effect, and have been wondering why we don’t see it on Yahoo Video. Despite many more visitors to YouTube, we get many more views on Yahoo Video.

Bill and I have been watching these strange birds at the Lake of the Pines Lake in Auburn, CA. They sit on a perch and hold their wings out for a long time, then they dive under water and swim amazing distances. For awhile we didn’t know what they were, and then we found them on Wikipedia. They are called Cormorants and they’re pretty cool.
