Worth the walk, says FWR about this giant sundial on Gran Canaria. h2g2.com/entry/A88089...

h2g2's Paige: Finally bagged up this wasp that buzzes against our bedroom window every morning. Released it at Crawl Park in the hope it doesn't come back. If I hear buzzing tomorrow there's more than one or the other one has a homing device on it. h2g2.com/entry/thepost

One Researcher found a giant sundial. Another rowed a marathon and found a steam train. Still another rescued a wasp. One climbed a volcano. Others just grooved on spring. Join them on some great trips, and try to figure out what those gulls are saying. h2g2.com/dna/h2g2/bru...

Heads up to procrastinators: you have one more day to read this week's issue of the h2g2 Post at h2g2.com/dna/h2g2/bru... What happens after that? Either the dino here eats you or you get to read a brand-new issue tomorrow, I forget. - The Editor

FWR finds contemplative places on his travels. Instead of an old cathedral, this time he found an unusually beautiful modern church. Visit El Templo Ecumenico el Salvador Maspalomas, Gran Canaria in the h2g2 Post. h2g2.com/entry/A88088...

Willem, our resident expert, identified FWR's bird of prey as a Harris's Hawk, Parabuteo unicinctus, used on Gran Canaria to keep the pigeon population down. This may be because Harris's Hawks are known to hunt in packs. FWR commented, 'They're crap at their jobs, look!' h2g2.com/entry/A88088...

What do these crabs and those Ankole Watusi cows have in common? They're all hanging around the h2g2 Post this week for you to look at. Please stop by. h2g2.com/entry/thepost

It seems to me that the natural world is ...the greatest source of so much in life that makes life worth living. - Sir David Attenborough Happy 100th birthday from the h2g2 Post, which agrees. (So does the Raccoon Dog.)

Robbie Stamp v sheep: sheep are winning. Here they are, having an outrage meeting because he forgot to bring snacks. See the sheep in this week's h2g2 Post (and other things)> h2g2.com/dna/h2g2/bru...

The Raccoon Dog looks very much like a raccoon with its black face mask, but is indeed a member of the Canidae, the family of foxes & dogs. It only weighs from 3-10 kg. Check it out at h2g2.com/entry/A88088...

Up in Scotland, Paige is outraged: 'Look at those beady eyes clocking me but still eating!' More surprises in this week's issue of the h2g2 Post. h2g2.com/entry/thepost
