How different birds would act on a first date...a thread. (From us to you this #ValentinesDay) 💕👇

A playful illustrated title reads “How different birds would act on a first date." A disclaimer underneath states: “Not approved by RSPB fact-checkers.” The image features a cute Coal Tit perched sweetly on a blue flower. The background is a romantic shade of pink.

Charles Feeney, Who Made a Fortune and Then Gave It Away, Dies at 92

After piling up billions in business, he pledged to donate almost all of his money to causes before he died. He succeeded, and then lived a more modest life.
