Stump the Librarian: Big, Bad Bird


Hello to all our podcast listeners, old and new! In today’s episode, Liz launches into the wonderful world of seaweed—which is not actually a weed at all. Next, Librarian Lynn from the Plainfield Twp. Branch shares a trivia fact about terrific elephant toes, and then Jill takes us on the search for the most dangerous bird. Steer clear of big, bad birds! Finally, Liz shares a nonfiction book recommendation about the power of parasites. It’s a little bit gross and also absolutely fascinating. We hope you enjoy laughing and learning with us today!
