poor georgie’s almanack

Unlike humans real snow birds sense Earth’s magnetic waves.

They use them as an avian GPS to get from freezing Yukon winters to warm southern nests.

A bird’s sky atlas, would look very different than National Geographic’s.

The illustration is an artist’s suggestion of a bird’s-eye-view of the night sky showing magnetic waves from Jupiter.

Retired. Writing essays about local and world events that affected the decisions made by our ancestors that resonate with our lives today. We are who they were. Also writing my take on what Ben Franklin's Poor Richard's Almanack might be like in a modern world that now has electrcity. I was head of PR for The Washington Post during Pentagon Papers and Watergate, special assistant to the Postmaster General, senior staffer on the US Senate Foreign Relations Committee, a show business press agent, Chicago chamber of commerce press relations manager and consultant to US and international governmental and nongovernmental agencies and corporations. Examples of my work are in the Smithsonian and Newseum collections. poor georgie's almanack (since 2011) can be found at http://georgekroloff.blogspot.com You can Google it or follow me on Facebook or Twitter.
