5 Facts Of The Day :)

1..Millions of birds a year die from smashing into windows in the U.S. alone.

The actual number is somewhere between 365 million and 988 million! While the exact number of the bird population is uncertain, this comes out to about 2 to 10 percent of birds in the United States.

2..George W. Bush was once a cheerleader.

Bush was a cheerleader in High School, and continued to be one while he attended Yale. In high school, he was even promoted to head cheerleader!

3...In total, there are 205 bones in the skeleton of a horse.

Even though they are much greater in size to humans (we have 206), horses have just about the same number of bones in their skeleton as we do!

4..Each year there are more than 40,000 toilet related injuries in the United States.

Some of these make sense, like a child of infant falling in. Others are attributed to toilet seats falling down, or complications due to bowel movements.

5..Strawberries can be red, yellow, green or white.

This of course refers to the different maturity stages of a strawberry. Before it’s ripe and red, it will be green. Yellow strawberries are a different type altogether – called Alpine Strawberries.
