Well done. Not sure how I would feed a sparrow. She seems to have done well and adapted to her domestic habitat. Frankly I’ve never known anyone to have the success you have had with an indigenous species. She probably doesn’t miss the company of her fellows as both of you have become that for her. Sadly yesterday what looks like a long billed shore bird hit the back parlor floor window of my row house. The poor fellow was dead on impact. It was the first time in 45 years living there that I experienced that. He must have been lost or pursued because he hit the widow at high speed, as always .......

I didn’t even know that was possible. Did you rescue it? How did it adapt to inside? Do you cage it? Sorry for all the questions. As always ......

Still worth the mention. My parents had several mating budgies when I was young. They are a challenge but a lot o fun when tame. One used to take rides on my collies back. As always ....

Wonderful picture. It made the day worth it. That great looking Calico has a lot of fine feathered friends or he/she is guarding the pantry. Thank you again for a signature photo. As always ....

I was a freshman in KingsBorough Community at the time, The shoveling which my fathers rightfully and happily delegated to me is also a treasured memory. I remember thinking, at the time; imagine if this was all snow. As always .....

If anyone’s desperate, Amazon has a selection of bidets available. As always ........

Feen can go to the New England forum, they still have one. As always. .....

Must have been an outer borough measurement. As always ....

On spite, I keep dropping ice shavings on the concrete in front of my almost blooming Camilla. Spite doesn’t pay, it either melts immediately or the rain washes it away. As always .....

Don I just received notice of a book called Cranky Uncle vs Climate Change by John Cook, “it uses humor and Science to help stop the flow of misinformation at the dinner table and beyond”. It may help us, I before we, who would profit from a more pedestrian read. As always .....

If adults acted as such, whether yea or nay, perhaps the children would have no need to step up early to fill the void. Sadly denial lasts only until the king finds a mirror that reflects the truth. As always .........

I was in the 7th grade in Saint Ephrems . I lived on 75th just off 11th. School was open but my parents kept me home. Spent the entire day outside., wonderful memory. As always. ..

And what remains will be our eulogy. As always .....

Sadly, Don, the one lyric that could remain unchanged is “But you tell me over and over and over again my friend, Ah you don’t believe we’re on the eve of destruction” As always ...

Almost 55 years ago PF Sloans “Eve Of Destruction” was recorded and released. Today, with an appropriate retooling of the lyrics, it could well serve as the background for the report Don kindly posted. As always .....

The four most frightening words out of the over four hundred you wrote were “nature is about balancing” . Billy S. Said it best “What Fools These Mortals Be” .... as we end up in a never ending midsummers nightmare. As always ....

A natural beauty that we, thankfully, still cannot control. Viewing this pictorial has made a difficult morning much easier. Thank you, as always .....

I also miss alternate side parking being suspended for weeks at a time. As always .......

Wonderful photo. Considering the state in which this cold season has left most of us winter weather enthusiast, most appropriate.

(Sigh) that’s too far down memory lane for me. As always ......

The DIT speaks truth Anthony. The southern part of the borough has not been able to match that since, what is now Brooklyn was awash in melt water from the glacier that was parked in, what is now Prospect Park. As always ....

My apologies for the presumption, Strong belief and strong denial will often lead to stronger emotions. Whatever the outcome, time will tell, whether/weather we like it or not. As always ...

Don, the poster may have been referring to the film Director Michael K Mann. Thank you for the lead on Doctor Michael E, Mann. I trying to read the Australia report. As always .....

It seems we are on track for an all blue polar summer ocean. How will the global atmosphere respond with a 24/7 multi month sun shining down on that ice free polar ocean? Im sure I’d rather not find out, if it is any way avoidable. As always....

Well Anthony, it’s easy to see what you want under the tree; a six to ten foot drift. May the dream come true to some degree. As always .....
