Description

This Thanksgiving may not look like years' past, but we do have a lot to be  thankful for. In the challenging year known as 2020, it just might take a  little longer to think about it or realize it. For example, I'm  grateful for science alerting us of chickens' terrifying ancestry. I'm  also grateful that today we have a surprise guest.
