This only took me 3 hours. I wrote it myself, and went outside where the sun was shining. I find it wonderful, really.
This is an adult Mediterranean Gull in full breeding plumage with ghostly white wings, a lipstick-red bill and cartoon eye crescents. Mediterranean Gull is one of the big success stories as its numbers have increased dramatically in Britain, though it is still quite rare, particularly where I live in the Pennines. It first bred as recently as 1968 in Hampshire, but since then it has spread throughout England and the population exceeds 600 pairs. At least when Mediterranean Gull was first named its population was largely in the Mediterranean, and the type specimen was described from the Adriatic. This adult spent a day in late May on Ingbirchworth Reservoir in South Yorkshire. I know Mediterranean Gulls can be common at the coast but this site is at least 60 miles from the nearest coast, and is 850 feet above sea level. This is the first photo I have uploaded that shows the immaculate pale upperwings of an adult bird.
There are many confusing issues about the names and scientific names of gulls. Black-headed Gulls actually have brown heads, whereas Mediterranean Gulls really do have black heads. Their scientific name melanocephalus also translates as black-headed, whereas Black-headed Gull's ridibundus translates as "laughing". Yet Black-headed Gull is not one of the gulls that give a laughing call. To confuse matters further, there is a Laughing Gull (Larus atricilla) which translates as "black-tailed" yet it does not have a black tail, but at least it does laugh. It is thought that the author Linnaeus misread his own handwriting and meant to name the Laughing Gull atricapilla (which also means "black headed") rather than atricilla. But we cannot blame all of this confusion on historic authors. Until recently almost all gulls were placed in the same genus (family); Larus. Now many of our familiar gulls have been placed in different genera. Mediterranean Gull has recently been placed in the genus; Ichthyaetus, which translates as fish eagle. Though that name for the genus was taken from old species name for Great Black-headed Gull (aka Pallas's Gull- Ichthyaetus ichthyaetus). All very confusing.

I find my handwriting changes a lot day to day, hour to hour, pen to pen. This is actually not a bad day. I find I wind up skipping some letters (sorry Worldworx) cause my eyes are faster than my hand. Never had a real great handwriting, my grade school teachers would attest to that.
I was tagged by sandra.harri10 and Ginny and the Units (writing) for this handwriting game, and if you see your name here, I'm sorry but you are tagged! You have to write the 6 things, your name and flickr name, right or left handed, letters you like, letters you don't like to write, the sentence containing all the letters of the alphabet, and 6 names to tag. There is no actual group for this.

Ever since breaking my pinkie, I write with my left hand for "longer items". If anything, I'd rather type. I was the person in high school that would wanna type up a math assignment if it was possible. I typed every.single.thing I could and teachers loved it. I love typing!

it is way too far on my 365 to still half ass photos. Today was very busy, because it's my mum's birthday tomorrow on top of that, I couldn't get anything near a decent or interesting photo so somehow i ended up with this.
I got a new phone today and it's ridiculously technical.

have a good start into the new week!!
I recently bought a HUGE collection of old paper dolls, which were obviously very well loved and used. There were even some hand-drawn clothes and accessories. And I found this little note hidden among them.
