Trolling through the blogs today for use of a better word i found nothing new or of interest so I decided to post this blog of useful and or useless information.
Feel free to add your own bits as I intend to update this blog on a regular basis.
"In certain circumstances, a hedgehog may froth at the mouth, twist its head backwards over its shoulder and throw a vile-smelling foamy saliva onto its back. This behaviour is known as self-anointing."

North America
Eclipse fever is building. Millions in North America are hoping to spend around four minutes in total darkness as the Moon blocks the Sun's light on Monday.
For some, those precious minutes will be an opportunity for often impossible science experiments - a chance to unravel the secrets of our universe.
Researchers will fly rockets into the path of the eclipse, stand in zoos watching animals, send radio signals across the globe, and peer into space with massive cameras.

An Ancient frog species named after Kermit the Frog by scientists
Kermit the Frog has been around since 1955 – but a new Kermit on the block was actually around much longer ago.
Scientists have uncovered a fossil of an ancient 270-million-year-old amphibian ancestor, and named it after him.
It’s possible to contract a respiratory condition, colloquially referred to as hot-tub lung.
It’s triggered by microbes called mycobacteria, from the same family as those which cause the infection tuberculosis (TB).
Like in TB, hot-tub lung bacteria generate patches of inflammation in the lung tissue. This results in symptoms such as shortness of breath, cough and fever. The lung changes can be seen on an X-ray or CT scan of the chest, and may appear quite profound.
The hot tub acts as a perfect environment for the growth of these bacteria because the warmth of the system creates an optimum temperature for their proliferation. The bubbling of the water also acts as an aerosol – allowing the bacteria to be released into the air, where they can be inhaled.
Unlike TB, which requires long-term antibiotics and is becoming increasingly difficult to treat, hot-tub lung may be considered more of an inflammatory condition.
A Queensland camper has made a momentous scientific discovery after taking a closer look at a hairy poo.
Entomologist James Tweed was chilling out in the lush rainforest that sits behind the Gold Coast's busy beaches a while back.
As he wandered off to clean his teeth, his gaze fell upon what he thought was a blob of bird poo, turning furry with mould in the humidity.
But it turned out to be Australia's newest creepy-crawly – a longhorn beetle so distinct from its relatives that it's not just a new species, but a whole new genus.
Closed comments on my blog as an angry self righteous individual started throwing insults at another blogger for voicing their own opinion which I understand is everyone's right ?
