Spring has sprung

Post by Devil »

Spring has sprung, the grass is ris,
I wonder where the boidies is
The boid is on the wing,
But that’s absoid
From what I hoid
The wing is on the boid!

Today is the first day of the year with a temperature exceeding 20° C (to wit, it reached 20.5° C at 13:28 on my weather station In Mosfiloti).

I love that poem Brian . . . . . . However, I would be grateful if you could kindly SHUT YOUR TRAP regarding the coming of Spring! It's just obsoid even thinking about it living where I am. 🤣😁🤣 We are feeding the wee boidies every day . . . . .And will do for a while yet.

Enjoy it, you b*ggers. 😁

The first Swallows and House Martins of the year have already been reported across the island. Looking forward to seeing some myself.

I have seen Swallows beginning January in the wider Polis Chrysochous area, first time I am living permanent in Cyprus >35 years (Ouch!). Is that possible some stayed in Cyprus, due to climate change?

Have you read the short story by Oscar Wilde called The Happy Prince?
