Juvenile Starlings in the bird bath.
Reminds me of a framed, signed, poem that was in my grandfather's house, then my father's house and now in my house.
"The Bathroom" by Evelyn St. Leger (copyright May 1924)
A Bathroom is a pleasant place,
But people make it a disgrace.
I hardly like to whisper you
The horrid things that people do.
They find it sweet and clean and white,
They leave it a disgusting sight.
They find it nice and dry and cool,
They leave it like a swimming pool,
They find the bath in shining trim,
They leave it with a dirty rim.
They find a mat unused before,
They leave it sodden on the floor.
They find a chair that's polished brown,
They leave the soapsuds frothing down;
They splash the water all around,
And jump out, dripping on the ground.
They seize the towel, soap and sponge,
All sopping with the recent plunge,
Then rushing forth with blithesome tread
They fling the lot upon the bed!

Pulteney Bridge is an iconic landmark located in the city of Bath, in the county of Somerset, England. The bridge spans the River Avon and connects the city center with the district of Widcombe.
The bridge was designed by Robert Adam and completed in 1774, and it is considered one of the most beautiful examples of Georgian architecture in England. Its most distinctive feature is the row of shops built into both sides of the bridge, which gives it a unique appearance and has made it a popular spot for photographers and tourists.
The shops on Pulteney Bridge originally sold everyday goods like groceries, but today they are home to a variety of boutiques, art galleries, and gift shops, making it a popular destination for shopping in Bath.
The bridge is also home to several elegant archways, which provide stunning views of the River Avon and the surrounding countryside. Visitors can take a stroll across the bridge and admire its beauty, or take a boat tour along the river for a unique perspective on this iconic landmark.
Overall, Pulteney Bridge is a must-see attraction for anyone visiting Bath, offering a unique blend of history, architecture, and shopping in a beautiful and picturesque setting.
"Phillip, go and squeeze me some fresh orange juice."

"Need I remind you?"
"Of what?"
67005 'Queen's Messenger' passes Sydney Gardens with a Belmond Pullman from Victoria to Bath on 6 July, 2022. Note the new railings being fitted to the low balustrade wall on the left, finally replacing various unsightly temporary fences that have marred the view for several years.
On this trip to the creek we found these fine birds enjoying bath time. I am wondering is the White Egret the mother/Father watching over the Children bathing? Just a thought.
The Church of St Michael's Without is Grade II*-listed and was designed in 1835 by George Phillips Manners (1789 –1866), Bath's City Architect from 1823 to 1862. It is the fourth church to have stood on this spot, just outside the former city walls, where it dominates Bath's skyline. The present building replaced a much smaller classical church of 1741-43 by John Harvey.
According to British Listed Buildings, "St Michael's is a notable example of a pre-Pugin Gothic Revival church, erected before the preoccupation with archaeological correctness took hold of ecclesiastical architects. It possesses great townscape value externally, by dint of its scale, its siting, its lofty proportions, its decorative consistency and its overall Romantic conception. The interior is of very high quality and survives in fine condition."
