Good morning, Panama City.

Florida residents will see Earth's shadow begin crossing the moon at 3:44 a.m. on March 3 during this year's only total lunar eclipse, though the moon may set before totality (sunrise is at 6:43 a.m.).

Scott Rashid, a bird banding expert with 30 years of experience, will speak at FSU PC Holley Center on Saturday, March 28 and show his watercolor art.

The event is presented by Bay Audubon Society for those interested in local bird studies.

Daylight saving time will begin at 2 a.m. Sunday, March 8, so residents will spring forward to save energy and enjoy longer evenings.

Florida approved the Sunshine Protection Act, but federal law must change for the state to remain on daylight saving time permanently.
