The Rosebank Glasspecker Strikes Back
Yesterday, he managed to pull down some of the newspapers I used to block the reflection of his ‘rival’, so I taped the window. This morning, he not only pecked away at the remaining newspapers, but also at the tape, and he found the ‘other’ bird again. The glass-pecking continued through the day.
The dedication is admirable.

A social Skype lunch with my Family in Austria (I had spicy two-minute noodles, my Mom cooked a real meal for her and Krystian) and a real dinner around my dining room table with my love’s Family!

A worrying development: the first indications of the third wave rolling in are surfacing. F@#$%ck!
Be kind. Wear a mask. Support local.
