The irrepressible Marco Sermarini took this shot today from the top of one of his family’s olive trees in the Marche. He was in his grove, trimming them. This has to be some of the most beautiful countryside on God’s green earth.
Marco says he met a Canadian woman at the monastery in Norcia the other day, a reader of this blog who knew about him and his wonderful community because of posts like this.
Last month the Shoshone River, near Yellowstone National Park, suddenly and without warning started boiling. The river changed color and started to emit a sulfuric odor on March 25th. Geologists and other experts believe that a portion of the river located near Cody, Wyoming had started to boil and that a new Yellowstone vent opened up. The boiling river has cooled down, at least for now. However, earthquake activity in and around the Yellowstone supervolcano is reportedly increasing.
A young orca that found itself beached on some rocks was saved by a team of volunteers and researchers in Hartley Bay, on the North coast of British Columbia. The volunteers managed to keep the ocra alive by keeping it cool for eight hours until high tide (scroll down for video) According to Minds.com, the group responded to a call from a colleague about the beached orca which had became stranded during low tide: “She cried often, which tore at our hearts, but as the tide came up there were many cheers as this whale was finally free,” said a Facebook post from the group The Cetacean Lab.
