Think of the word “caregiver”and you’re unlikely to questionhow the term got its name. Tocare is “to be concerned” and togive is to “offer to another.”Someone who offers theirconcerns for another iscompassionate, kindhearted andundoubtedly needed. For all thethings caregivers do, fromassisting with everyday tasks toproviding companionship and alistening ear, they deserve muchpraise. We offer a heartfeltthanks and a special salute to allthe caregivers in ourcommunity!

Popcorn Pick: ‘The Birds’The poster for this 1963 thriller
features a menacing quote by itslegendary director, AlfredHitchcock: “It could be the mostterrifying motion picture I haveever made.” His film is based ona story by novelist Daphne duMaurier. Beautiful socialiteMelanie Daniels (Tippi Hedren inher first acting role) visits aCalifornia seaside town, where,inexplicably, birds of all typesbegin attacking people. Along withHitchcock’s flair for suspense,movie historians note the specialeffects that used real and animatedbirds, plus a sinister soundtracknot made of music, butbird sounds.

Crows havefan-shaped tail feathers; ravenssport a wedge-shaped tail. Ravensoften travel in pairs, but crowsin groups. One of the mostdistinguishing traits is the birds’calls.
