## Resource

Johnny Mac shares five good news stories: Gerie, a pet chicken in Maine, is recognized as the world’s oldest living pet chicken at 15 years and 100 days, with owner Frank saying she became flock leader and now enjoys an indoor life and human company ahead of turning 16 in July. In Georgia, 12-year-old Macy is praised for running into her burning home to alert her two older brothers and help them escape as firefighters contained the blaze and the cause remains under investigation. In England, archaeologists surveying for a wind power project unexpectedly uncovered a Roman villa and bathhouse, an Iron Age farming estate, a bronze handle nicknamed “Norfolk Na,” plus Neolithic, Bronze Age, and medieval finds. In the UK, recycled urine from major events is processed into fertilizer to grow 4,500 trees. In New Zealand, 101-year-old Neville becomes the world’s oldest competitive croquet player.
