Evening all: Good turnout at the march today, although here in California (and especially Santa Barbara) protesters are mostly preaching to the choir. We heard short but good speeches from some young people and teachers from local schools and colleges. It's great to see young people so energized. Those kids from the Florida high school have really started something. Lots of calls for voting preregistration as many of them will vote for the first time in 2020.
Lindybird: Hope the baby pigeons survive this year.
Clare: Some beautiful markings on that bird. Congrats on finally spotting it.
Very springlike here today; must get into the garden tomorrow: The weeds are feeling entirely too self-confident and I have some salvia to plant while the soil is still nice and damp.
Hope things are better with Forestboar..... Also that OG has a good ride back from the festivities.
Take care everyone.

Our herring gulls are red listed birds. Think about that the next time you hear some flaming idiot calling for a cull of them.
Unbelievably, we celebrate eighteen years as parents today!!!
Congrats on surviving parenthood, Clare - and many congrats to Helen!! You arn't finished worrying get, though, my Youngest is 40 soon and we still feel t he same.
Good Morning, Everyone, and thanks to Annette for starting us off. Hope you in UK have all remembered to put your clocks forward!!
Thinking of ForestBoar and his family.
Misty and foggy here, but a bit of sun forecast.
Today's pic:
Just been back to look at your latest pics, Clare (was going to bed when I saw the post last night). What lovely markings! - you must have been very excited!
Great views indeed Clare.
Birdies LG DU update.
SD has improved, not as quickly as she hoped for. She is out of danger, it is now going to be time and patience. There is a possibility that she will be released with daily hospital checks. We wait and see.

Ospreys Rule OK, but Goldfinches come a close second!
