I see Tycho rather often.He looks so forlorn.(Or could it be ???) Only you know. Feels good to write a few lines to you.Guess,you were pretty much involved in FFIT. Naturally,I hope that you are feeling well.So do I.Greetings yours Egon/ It’s another gorgeous fall day and have to report that at I my daily round to my special peninsula I saw a ‘fata morgana’ of our beloved swans near the beaver lodge at Ashbridges.For me it was a sight to behold to relive a love scene of Penny and Tycho.Do they ever like and love each other.Doing the identical dance in approaching each other,turn away playfully,and then being so close that the silhouette of their frolicking necks seemingly showed in the form of a heart.Then there was for a moment that Tycho proofed himself in mating.(I know,it’s not the season,nevertheless).Margarete,you know it could not be our beauties,yet,this brought back memories of olde lang syne.

Beautiful photos! Thanks! I must confess that I have been 'stepping out' on your menagerie, spending all my time with the eagles in Decorah, Iowa. They are extremely addictive! The 3 eaglets are now two weeks old and growing very quickly. I love their huge clown feet. Their camera is ice-coated tonight after a long snowstorm today. But all eagles are safe. http://www.ustream.tv/decoraheagles Just got caught up to date here. Beautiful photos!

I just now got your comment. It's a long story, but it has to do with the fact that there are evil spammers out there. I had thousands and thousands of spam comments on my blog, and couldn't tell which ones were legit and which ones (let's say 99 %) were spam. I've been working through them, trying to get rid of the viagra, cialis, accutane, and other annoying spam ads....and just found yours. Thank you so much for lurking on my site! I am happy to have each and every reader. I hope you keep reading and commenting and let me know if there is anything you would like especially to see! I am always looking for ideas. Thank you again, Margaret (Wildaboutthecity) Hi Christine,

I don't think that I knew that you had left a comment. I have been dealing with some horrible robot spammer that inundates me with thousands and thousands of spam comments....Because of this, I don't always see the legit comments! I think I have fixed the technical problem that was allowing this to happen, so hopefully my friends and family who leave comments will get responses from me, as I'll actually see them! Hope you and y our family are well. Thinking of y ou, and looking forward to the summer! Yay! It can't come too soon. Ugh! Snow on the ground tonight. xox Margaret Hey there Vickey,

I had a problem with my website. I was getting thousands of pieces of spam in through some backdoor hole that the bots found. Because of this, I didn't see your comment. If your offer is still good, I would love to see the odd pic of your neighbourhood park, the Rouge. I would love to know more about that park. It's a huge, vast unknown territory to me. thanks for sending your comment, and please let me know if y ou have a flickr account or somewhere I can see your Rouge pix!
