In 2004 I oversaw an email pen pal program that linked my Australian students with students in an Illinois school. I had the opportunity to visit the school in Illinois to share a bit of Australian culture with the students. These videos were taken from local television news broadcasts.

Mandy and I visited Lake Hope State Park in SE Ohio where they provided sugar-water feeders for visitors to hand feed the local hummingbirds. We were amazed how quickly the gregarious hummingbirds swooped down and fed from our bird feeders. Listen to their chirping as they hover in front our faces and check us out before feeding.
