I managed to snap these just now with my cell phone.
I believe it to be a Calliope male. With it being a cloudy day his plumage is not vibrant looking.

Very cool. Nice that they do sit down once in awhile! I need to hunt around for our hummer feeders.... they should be arriving soon now that temps are warming.
Oh wow! [emoji177]
Good evening all. It’s 11:35pm here and I really should be asleep, but the day has been so exciting.
Firstly we loaded our car with things for our daughter’s new flat and then we drove to Salisbury Plain (about 2 hours). The Plain is mostly owned by the Ministry of Defence (MoD) and used for army exercises, but it’s also an amazing wildlife habitat.
There we joined a small tour (just 7 of us) which was taken out into remote farmland... and yes there were tanks, red flags and big bangs... to see the Great Bustards. It was brilliant! I never expected to see so many. The males are huge... up to 3 feet tall. And they were both displaying and fighting. The photos aren’t very good. I need a better camera
After an excellent pub lunch (Roast beef, Yorkshire pudding and lots of veggies and gravy followed by a ginormous portion of fruit crumble & custard) we went to daughter’s new flat and I have spent the evening helping her to build flat pack furniture.
When JoesDad got home he sent the best news of all... Mrs Bluet-it is spending her first night in her nest. Maybe there will be an egg tomorrow?! I’m so excited!
This is the photo he sent me

Good spotting. I must take pics of the birds by me too. But I don't know what they are.

Good Morning All.
I am at Jarrods school waiting to have a meeting with the principal at his request. Will let you know later what it was about. I hope you all have an awesome day. Not chat later.

Good luck with the meeting. It doesn’t sound like good news, but we can keep our fingers crossed.
My governor school is in the process of inviting a number of students, accompanied by their parents, for a meeting with the Principal and a governor to remind them on the school’s expectations of behaviour and/or “attitude to learning”.
They’re usually pretty positive meetings - a bit of a shock to a teenager that thought Mum wouldn’t know that he/she hadn’t been applying themselves appropriately!
It’s not like any of the adults were never teenagers themselves despite what the teenager concerned believes
Good morning all. The sun is out and I am planning my day.
I have a small amount of shopping to do for daughter. Then it’s into her flat to wait for deliveries, so I’ll crack on with paperwork for a meeting on Thursday

Looool

Good morning and Good luck, Linda!
Good mornooning, roommates!
It’s foggy here, but pretty warm.
[ EDIT: insert picture of a foggy square here. Because TFO won’t let me do it. ]
Husband’s been away for two weeks in the States and is going to Brussels tonight, straight after the transatlantic flight back. Daughter and I are planning to go to the airport and get his big bag and bring him a fresh shirt, after which he can fly on.
