A Swift to Swallow

A few mornings ago there was a Tweet of the Day on Radio 4 about hobbys.

Levelling Up

  The peregrine falcon chick has been ringed and is a falcon; if male she would be a tiercel. This morning she jumped up on the balcony wall for the first time.

Famine

Only one egg hatched this year and the chick is now three weeks old and taking a look at the outside world for the first time.

A Walk in the Park

You probably know the Italian Gardens in Kensington Gardens but do you know about this building on the north end of the gardens?

Etiquette

Promises

We have an election here on Thursday 5th May. There have been some boundary changes but don’t let’s get bogged down in detail. Fifty candidates are standing to be councillors.

We Have a Chick!

“We have a chick! It must have hatched around 4.45am. It was revealed a few minutes ago when Azina had to go deal with an intruder that Tom couldn’t chase off.” (Nathalie Mahieu, 16th April 2022)

Easter Eggs
