The magpie: Handsome and dressed in a tuxedo

“He is a handsome creature, with snowy white decorations, and is a singer; he has a murmurous rich note that is lovely. He has talent, and cuteness, and impudence; and in his tame state he is a most satisfactory pet — never coming when he is called, always coming when he isn’t, and studying disobedience as an accomplishment.” — Mark Twain (1835-1910)

Boundary County Human Rights Task Force: Native American Heritage Month

Early Native farmers in the Americas domesticated avocados, beans, cacao (chocolate!), cotton, cranberries, maize (corn), papayas, peanuts, peppers, pineapples, potatoes, sunflowers and tomatoes. Give thanks and celebrate, indeed.
