I’ve notices that a couple of
the later postings are getting a little intimate (Swans on Nest) or risqué (see
below). I hope these are at the edge of the envelope, and we proceed no
further in this direction. I would also counsel against depictions of intimacy
with nestlings or dependent young in case the internet nestophilia police
become interested.
On an entirely different subject
you would notice the little ticky thing above the e in risqué in the first
sentence (there it is again). It’s presence has nothing to do with me, but
surely demonstrates the wonders of modern software, and how it is so much smarter
than the average user.
Cheers

THE NATIONAL GULLERY OF AUSTRALIA, at Lotus Bay, near the
yacht club. This is a modest one, as gulleries go, the birds having
nested in recent years on the decks and in the cockpits of the moored
boats. Compared to their raucous cousins at the coast, Canberra’s gulls,
like its public servants, are of a retiring nature. The coastal gulls
(like public servants in this respect) favour takeaway pizza, pie crusts and
French fries, while the Canberra birds get their tucker at the Mugga Lane
landfill where a large flock can generally be found during working hours.
