There are three attractive beaches that are close to the village of Monreith. The largest is Monreith Bay. It is best visited at low tide when the wide expanse of sand is exposed. To reach it, park beside the A747 and take the long flight of 152 steps down to the beach below where there are public toilets. Just to the south of Monreith are the two beaches of Front and Back Bay. They are reached off the road to the St Medan's Golf Club, with a public car park beside Back Bay. Just off the road you'll see a bronze sculpture of an otter, a memorial to Gavin Maxwell, author of Ring of Bright Water. He spent his childhood at Monreith.

The periwinkle is probably to be considered in full bloom in the front yard, always delightful at this time of year.

Manif "contre la loi sécurité globale à Paris et lutte contre la précarité" qui était organisée de la Porte des Lilas à la Place de la République.

 

J'ai rejoint la manif à pied (un peu avant 14 h, heure de départ officielle du cortège), en remontant la rue St Fargeau puis en prenant le bd Gambetta. J'ai été sidérée par le nombre de policiers tout le long de mon trajet, une véritable armée. Entre 13h30 et 14h, rue Saint Fargeau, des centaines de gendarmes, et plus d'une centaines de cars de gendarmes qui étaient garés (moteur ronflant) cul à cul tout le long de la rue St Fargeau. A partir du bd Gambetta, des centaines de CRS formaient une double file de chaque côté du boulevard. Ils laissaient passer les passants qui visiblement rejoignaient la manif (et qui allaient repartir dans l'autre sens avec le cortège). C'était impressionnant, toute cette armée policière en tenue robocop, et important à bien avoir en tête pour comprendre la suite...

 

Quand j'ai appris en effet par la suite qu'il y avait eu des "casseurs" bd Gambetta, la manipulation était évidente : c'était IMPOSSIBLE, avec cette armée de policiers en place une demi-heure avant le départ, de casser, sans leur "accord", une vitrine ou une voiture, alors même que les forces de police étaient assez nombreuses (des centaines) pour former une double haie d'honneur tout le long du bd Gambetta !

 

On devine évidemment l'objectif de cette manipulation (parce que cela en est une) pour la police, la préfecture et l'Etat : on communique à fond sur des "casseurs" en ne parlant que de "violences" de manifestants (les manifestants n'étaient pas violents) au lieu évidemment de parler des violences policières, de la loi de "sécurité globale", des bavures policières, des yeux crevés de manifestants... ce pourquoi on était venu manifester. Une diversion grossière.

 

Et je ne parle même pas de la suite : on enfume les manifestants avec des gaz lacrymo, on les "nasse", on les oblige à quitter le cortège par les petites rues adjacentes (impossible de revenir ensuite). Et on communique en donnant des chiffres sous-évalués du nombre réel de manifestants pour dire que la mobilisation s'affaiblit. Tout cela largement relayé par certains gros médias très complaisants qui s'égosillent sur les "casseurs".

 

"The common open-country woodpecker of eastern Mexico and northern Central America. It crosses the border mainly in southern Texas, where it is very common, noisy, and conspicuous. Similar in appearance and behavior to its relative, the Red-bellied Woodpecker. Where their ranges meet in Texas and Oklahoma, the two species aggressively defend territories against each other, and they sometimes interbreed."

She was coming toward me chasing her ball. She's doing pretty good for a 13 year old!

The foot of the orchestra (literally) as seen from Row A of the Ordway concert hall in St. Paul.

This was a very exciting find at Balcanoona, as we hadn't seen them before! They were feeding in the flowers of the Curly Mallee, which was one of the few things flowering in April, in the trees on both sides of Arkaroola Road.

Commonly occurring in the saltmarshes of southern Australia, the White-fronted Chat is often seen foraging for insects and their larvae among the succulent leaves and stems of stunted saltmarsh plants. With their bold black-white-and-grey plumage, White-fronted Chats are sometimes known as ‘Nunbirds’ due to the resemblance of their feathering to a nun’s habit. They construct neat nests from grass and plant stems in which they lay three tiny eggs. Once thought to be a type of thornbill, scientific studies have shown that chats are actually honeyeaters.
