Baby Boomers
The baby season started a little late this year for the hard-working volunteers at the Wildlife Education and Rehabilitation Center. But in the last month, there has been a wild baby boom. Some of the little critters currently being cared for at WERC are: 3 chickadees, 3 scrub jays, 3 opossums…happiness must come in threes….2 mourning doves, 2 mockingbirds, a yellow-billed magpie, a red-shouldered hawk, and just arrived, a downy nestling barn owl. All are thriving under WERC’s TLC, which includes feeding special diets according to the species and their age. Most nestling birds get fed a special passerine formula every half hour; the barn owl gets fed chopped rodents just like its parents would feed it.

The Jacoby transfer convention explained
Last time we talked about using the stayman convention to ask partner, who opened one notrump, if he has a four-card major suit.
