Black Bear and Rivals Sleep Through Winter Briefs
A Detroit Free Press writer notes winter sleep habits of Michigan wildlife. The black bear tunnels under fallen roots for a deep stupor, awakens only to prods. Woodchucks enter September and awaken in spring, while chipmunks delay departure until frost ends. Warm days spark renewed belief, listing seven sleepers including skunk, raccoon, jumping mouse, and bat. The bat hangs by the head in barns until warmth returns.

Gainsborough Portrait Painter of English Society
Gainsborough, famed 18th century society painter, often paused a portrait to paint the most attractive woman he could imagine, then worked toward resemblance until he quit. He confessed a preference for landscapes, but his wife’s demands pushed him toward portraiture. His portraits feature clear blue and green tones.
