A Morning Stroll

[poliphilo]

Ailz didn't have the energy to drive into Manchester for the Tuesday Talk, so- it being a sunny day (and we haven't had many of those recently)- I walked into Oldham to buy butter and croissants and exchange my library books. The library has a new display of big, handsome photographs in the lobby, showing people of all ages and races enjoying library facilities- something fewer people will do less of in David Cameron's Big Society. 

I walked home by way of Alexandra Park

Aha, I think I spy the rare "cuckoo pigeon", which lays its eggs in the nests of Canada geese and leaves its young to be brought up by the hapless parents. Excellent photo.

Thanks.
