[CINC] Articles in Today's Sunday Santa Barbara News-Press

[Paul Jr. Petrich]

Fellow CINC Volunteers.
 Today's S B News-Press has two excellent pieces related to our interests. On p A-3 Peter Howorth begins a long article comparing the  long migrations  of Elephant Seals and  Gray  Whales. He  also  gives his  take  on many myths about both of  these migrating marine mammals related to their respective feeding and mating habits. Outstanding  photos are included.
 Also, all of p A-6 id devoted to: "Plugged in -Fun for Kids" with this month's theme: become a naturalist. A list of 29 organizations involved with  educating and volunteering in many conservation related fields is included, WITH THE  CHANNEL ISLANDS NATIONAL MARINE SANCTUARY right at the  top. Charles Darwin's contribution as one of the founders of modern biology is noted, as his 200th birthday will fall on Feb 12th. The page was created by Heather Moffat of the Santa Barbara Museum of Natural History. Ciao, Paul.
