The elephant trainers are practicing a 'retrieval behavior' with Mabu because it encourages him to use his mind and muscles.
I watched this insect curling its body, head down and tail in and passing what looked like water droplets seemingly from it's nether region to it's mouth...I was puzzled. Maybe it was just drinking but there was no water on the leaves and the liquid seemed to appear from it's bottom...confused... Help please!

Two weeks ago I observed a (domestic) Greylag goose stalking a Canada Goose family (two adults, six goslings). The Greylag seemed to be after the goslings. There was quite a bit of vicious fighting until the adults finally drove the Greylag away. Now it looks like the Greylag has "adopted" a different Canada Goose family with three goslings. They get along peaceably.
“Canine Thyroglobulin Autoantibodies (TgAA)
An estimated 80% of cases of canine hypothyroidism result from heritable autoimmune (lymphocytic) thyroiditis. Many popular breeds are at increased risk for this disorder, with English Setters being the breed exhibiting the highest prevalence of thyroiditis today (>40% of those tested).
The presence of elevated TgAA levels confirms thyroiditis, promotes early recognition of the disorder, and facilitates genetic counseling. Low-grade false positive results can occur if the dog has been vaccinated recently, especially with rabies vaccine; retesting is recommended in 90 days. False negative results can occur in up to 8% of T3AA and/or T4AA confirmed positive thyroiditis cases, presumably because not all epitopes of TgAA are recognized by the assay reagent. Dogs on thyroid supplement should be off this medication for at least 90 days to obtain accurate TgAA results. Please note that reporting units for the TgAA normal reference range have changed recently from <200% to <20%. All equivocal or positive results are repeated with a confirmatory test to correct for non-specific binding (NSB TgAA); the normal reference range for this confirmatory test is <10%.”

We 'lost' him in the house today, but finally found Chili in the bed - somewhere he never normally is in the morning. He was pouting about the new puppy.

The Behavioral Operations Management Summer Institute for PhD students at the Ross School of Business of the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor (BOMSI2019). The lead faculty were Ryan Buell (Harvard Business School), Stephen Leider (Ross School of Business, University of Michigan), and Jordan Tong (Wisconsin School of Business, University of Wisconsin-Madison). From the website, "The inaugural Behavioral Operations Management Summer Institute for PhD students will be held June 10-14, 2019, at the University of Michigan, Ross School of Business in partnership with the Center for Value Chain Innovation. The conference is co-sponsored by the business schools at the University of Michigan, and the University of Wisconsin-Madison. Support for this event is also being provided by Harvard Business School's Technology and Operations Management Unit. The 1-week intensive summer institute is designed to provide PhD students who are interested in behavioral research a solid foundation to conduct behavioral operations management research. Additionally, we hope that the summer institute will encourage collaboration and the creation of a research community among the next generation of researchers. Each day of the institute will include morning and afternoon sessions. Morning sessions will provide a general overview of BOM, review core behavioral economics/psychology topics, and discuss OM applications. Afternoon sessions will be focused more on small groups, practicums (e.g., applying ideas to actual research activity), and roundtables (more informal discussions). There will also be free time to prepare for the next day, have office hours, pair up to work on ideas, and hang out!" Pictures from the sessions taken over the week.

A highly zoomed pic of Poppa up in the Pine tree watching me as I approach the box-I did not open it.
The last few days I have seen something rather extraordinary. I have not seen the Mother bird since before the eggs hatched. I have seen a juvenile male from one of the earlier two broods hanging out with Poppa AND helping feed the nestlings. I have now seen him got to the box with food over a dozen times. And he and Pop chatter at each other. They perch together on the feeder pole and junior follows Pop everywhere.
I have tried to capture a picture of him at the box but, my zoom is puny and I have to stay far away or they will not go to the box to feed the nestlings. I am able to view the box from our deck with the binoculars and have watched with amazement.
I will keep trying to get a shot of this. It's quite remarkable as one of my Flickr Birder friends has confirmed.
If we look at the weaknesses in our globe and in the people who use technology, we can shape technology to better us. Americans have to clique of fat and lazy and consumed with entertainment. Active video games could better us. Adaption is learning, technology can create and encourage prosocial and healthy behaviors.
