Found some interesting tracks in my backyard this morning. Some are from an eastern cottontail, others from my toddler. But what could the other ones be? They look too big to be a cat 🤔 Maybe fox? 🦊

Remember those ice hockey games on the frozen lake? That may become a thing of the past. @YorkUScience researcher @EcoFilazzola tells @CBCNews’s @JWagstaffe about his research on how warming air temperatures are affecting whether lakes are freezing over or not

QUESTION: As the childcare/homeschooling burden falls mostly on mothers and the pandemic is lasting longer than expected, many women are being forced to quit their jobs. What can employers/governments do to prevent this? How can we support parents during Covid?

"In parenting there’s this ‘Mom is better at it’ narrative. So kids go to Mom.The more they rely on Mom the better Mom gets at it and Dad doesn’t have to. There's a name for this: learned helplessness. Men learn not to know because they just don’t have to.”https://t.co/k8SPOtYrFg
