A few weeks ago, I had the honor to deliver my fifth State of the County address. I view these types of speeches - whether it's the president delivering the State of the Union, the governor giving a State of the State, or a local official talking about their county or city - as kind of a status report on how things are going. It's an opportunity to look back a little bit and then discuss what might be coming around the corner.

Owls are unable to move their eyes in their head. If they want to see in another direction than forward, they must swivel their heads. Owl heads can swivel for at least 270 degrees. Owl eyes are huge, and owls are adapted to see well enough in the dark to hunt for mice, voles, and other small birds and animals. Owls are nearly colorblind because keen color vision is not essential for animals that are active mostly at night (nocturnal).
