There are two open epics at present.
"The Heart's Best Tenant" belongs to the Steamsmith. Charlotte has good ideas.
"Within the Souls of Men" belongs to Shiv. Shiv thinks like a cat to assess wildlife conservation techniques.
The weather has been mild here, a mix of sunny and cloudy days. We finally got some rain yesterday and the night before. Seen at the birdfeeders this week: a flock of sparrows, a flock of mourning doves, a flock of assorted blackbirds, a flock of house finches, a flock of goldfinches, several starlings, two robins, two blue jays, a male and a female cardinal, a dark-eyed junco, and two fox squirrels. Blue grape hyacinths, forsythia, violets, tulips, anemones, cherries, crabapples, bluebells, lilacs, yellow bellflower, and celandine poppy are blooming. Daffodils are into their later-blooming varieties. Most trees and bushes at least have buds swelling. Last year's oaks are starting to leaf out.
