TF butthen again a suprisingly(?) large number of toddlers kill their mothers with guns in the US.

a female gorilla would almost certainly have looked after the child till a rescue was performed
There was that one a few years back in the US where some useless parent let her kid climb down into the gorilla enclosure so they shot the guerilla dead.

I’d have done things differently.
It’s not a bad thing to not use bird feeders through the summer anyway Pete - some big debate between RSPB and wildlife trusts around bird feeders and pretty horrible diseases which can be spread easily in the warmer months. Takes strict hygiene discipline to keep them safe and for most UK garden birds food is more plentiful during the summer months anyway.

One thing I have noticed is, having stopped dead-heading flowers this year, is an increase in goldfinches in the garden - they are one of the only birds to feed seeds directly to their chicks so my foxgloves and lupins are left to go to seed and they love them. My hunter cat is getting too old to be effective so it’s a happy balance at the moment, we had a hummingbird hawk moth here earlier today - stunning creature never seen one before.
Stopped feeding the birds since the cat adopted us. He's a hunter, you see.

When do we usually announce the new kit? Cardiff just did theirs. It’s blue and white. Wonder what colours ours will be.

One other Merlin comment. My girl was recently in New York and she's a bird nerd, and used the app there, totally impressed with the new birds that she got to experience whilst there. We often call Brenda, after the actress Brenda Fricker the Pigeon lady in Home Alone 2

Mexico win their group with a game to spare. Will play a 3rd placed team in the R32 and then, if things go how we would expect them to go for England, we play them in Mexico City in the R16. They didn’t look particularly impressive against a poor South Korea last night but they’ll raise their game against us.
