Well. Another day then.

Was out early this morning in the West Point Foundry Preserve in Cold Spring and spotted a pair of Blue-gray Gnatcatchers frolicking with each other. I've never seen one with its tail up quite this way! 💙🩶💙 #Gnatcatcher #ColdSpring #birding

Same, postcard writer from the past.

I see you, Land Rover Series II LWB.

So anyway, I've bought a replacement reverse camera for the Subaru for a tenner. Not convinced it'll fix the problem but it's a place to start.

There's something magical about the very early morning, especially in cities. A sense that anything is possible.

"When people are scared, they don't think about what makes sense. They do what feels familiar, what felt safe before."

TGV in orange, lads. 🤤

What's small, black and white and flies extremely quickly? I've no idea but it's just flown through my garden.

Been asleep most of the evening. 😔

Give me the most 80s song you can think of. youtu.be/l9ml3nyww80?...

Just pretending I didn't see the fledging blackbird that's trying its best to be invisible amongst the branches, there.

Is there a place you can go to trade in your other half? She's worn out and knackered and will probably fail her next MOT.

Aye, but it's not really a surprise to anyone, is it?

I hate you tube.

GOD CREATING DUCKS: "... waterproof that chicken and give it a kazoo"

Well I've done OK today. Only a couple of trips ln the orbit of the abyss, but just thought happy thoughts until I was at a safe distance.

Goodnight everyone. Hope there aren't too many spiders walking on your face as you sleep.

Imagine if this cat was called Beck.

This is a Sumerian clay tablet. Like most early writing, cuneiform was created for record keeping. This records a workers’ food list. The word ‘rations' is made by combining a human head and a bowl; this represents the worker eating grain or drinking beer which would have been his rations 🏛️BM 📷mine

Great *grey* owls. Although they probably deserve the double great.

I love great great owls.

100% it's James Bond in that car.

This is fucking nuts. It's like dancing on top of a coke bottle. They have to maintain enough horizontal velocity while dropping at more than 5m/second in order to avoid vortex ring state. So they maintain a circular speed while killing their directional speed at the same time.

The bloke that's left his Citroën van in the middle isn't going to be popular.

Just look at little Poppy!

Known as “the guardhouse of the bloodiest valley in Britain”, austere Hermitage Castle near Hawick in Scotland has witnessed intrigue, murder, torture and treason. In use for 400 years, it lost its strategic importance after the Union of the Crowns and fell into romantic ruin. #CastleSaturday

Oh, and it had a 10mm socket attachment, too.

The other day someone threw out a DeWalt power screwdriver (I know!) so I whipped it sharpish. Found a reconditioned charger + battery and it works perfectly. Not bad for £12.00. 👍 It's all about the little victories, isn't it?
