What about this for a jammy snap ? Now that the hirundines are more or less "back" , I am once again wondering ... [a] What are all those insects doing way up there .... what's in it for them ? [b] The pursuing hirundines must surely use up more energy getting up there and chasing around after them than they get from their meagre captures ? It's a bit like driving around like mad all over the place looking for a Polo Mint. [c] Do Swifts still scream with a gobful of flies ? We need to know. They haven't actually arrived yet, but I'm thinking ahead. There's a "Big Moon" tonight ... and you'll never guess ...... after 113 years of rainless and mostly cloudless days, it decides to suddenly get cloudy and rainy just in time for us not to be able to see it. Grrrr. We had a "sky" photo, then a "sky" topic, and now a "sky" song ..... rhyfedd ! ( I was mighty chuffed with that photo ..... a little crowd assembled behind me while I got a sequence of the triangle getting smaller and smaller. )
