Hi, Morning Rounds editor Karen Pennar here, filling in for Rose, who usually pens the Friday edition. She’s off covering the autism community, more about which below. I know there’s been much discussion lately in this space about potato chips, french fries, and even burgers. I have no food favorites to share. I do, however, highly recommend checking out this “Owl Cam” to watch two recently hatched owlets and their stunning mother, Athena. (Sometimes they’re hiding alongside or seemingly underneath her, sometimes they’re looking bereft while she’s off scrounging for a meal.) Viewing all three of them has had a calming effect on me in recent days.
