National Whipped Cream Day Whipped cream has been around for ages. But it was in 1946, when the aerosol can was first invented by Aaron Lapin, that sales and popularity of this dessert delight really took off. Whipped cream has continued to transform desserts and hot drinks from the merely ordinary to something truly special. https://www.daysoftheyear.com/days/whipped-cream-day/Bird Day The health of the global bird population is a reflection of and early warning system for our wider ecological health, and current research indicates that up to 12% of all species of birds may be at risk of becoming extinct in the next century. Bird Day aims to raise awareness of the plights faced by common and rare birds, from disease and environmental factors to illegal trade and welfare in captivity. https://www.daysoftheyear.com/days/bird-day/
Weigh-In Day So, Christmas is officially over, and so are both New Years Eve and New Years Day. Youve slept off any hangover you may have had, relaxed, and now youre ready to face the new year ahead of you and all of the challenges and opportunities it will bring. Unfortunately, due to the amount of food and drink consumed during the holiday season, chances are you may have gained a bit of weight during the holidays, so Weigh-In Day is a great time to set your first new year goal: start eating better and exercising more regularly so you can not only shed that weight, but improve your overall health. After all, what could be more important than your health? https://www.daysoftheyear.com/days/weigh-in-day/

We feed the birds year-round. Especially important on such a frigid morning (5 degrees here today!).
