We call this fella Doofus. Three years ago a young hawk was born in one of our trees and spent awhile learning to fly around our yard. He'd crash land right in front of us and just... stand there awhile and look around. He let us get pretty close to him, too. He's been hanging out here in the summers ever since then. Sometimes he flies down and looks in the window.

Five houses lined up on a shore with trees behind them. Their reflection is shown on a smith as glass lake.

Suspended in Time

"This image captures a ruby-throated hummingbird (Archilochus colubris) suspended in mid-air, frozen in a breathtaking moment of flight. Its iridescent green feathers shimmer with metallic brilliance, contrasting against the deep ruby red of its throat—a signature trait of the species. The wings blur into soft arcs, their frantic motion hinting at the bird’s astonishing speed. Despite the rapid wingbeats, its body remains sharply focused, poised and deliberate as it hovers. A pale blue backdrop accentuates the hummingbird’s vivid hues, making it stand out like a living jewel. Every delicate detail, from its needle-like beak to its dark, intent gaze, embodies the energy and grace of one of nature’s smallest aerial acrobats." - Copilot

The view if the lake can be seen through bright heart shaped sunglasses.

#OnThisDay in 1913, Berthe Mayer was born. During the #SecondWorldWar, she worked as a radio operator for her husband Percy, an SOE agent on #Madagascar.

When the allies took the north of the island, Percy ended up behind Allied lines and Berthe behind French lines. Despite having small children and SOE and her husband telling her to stop, she kept transmitting intelligence on her radio. The French authorities knew a radio was transmitting somewhere and searched her house multiple times, but never found any evidence.

In November 1943, she received the MBE in recognition of her work.
