Odd behaviour today. 2 squirrels were rummaging around in next doors tall Yucca plants. They seemed to be shredding the dry leaves but didn't seem to take any away for nest material. Possibly they were finding nutrition in last years seed heads - I really don't know!

Like most simple organisms, springtail behaviour runs on a pretty simple algorithm:
1. Can it eat me?
2. Can I eat it?
3. Can I make love to it?
Here Orchesella cincta meets Tomocerus minor. Unusually, they didn't immediately spring away from each other but spent some time checking the other out. Pheromone confusion?

WINCKWORTH TONGE, army officer, officeholder, politician, and landowner; b. 4 Feb. 1727/28 in County Wexford (Republic of Ireland); m. Martha Cottnam, and they had four sons, including William Cottnam*; d. 2 Feb. 1792 in Halifax, Nova Scotia.
Winckworth Tonge devoted his early years to a military career. He first saw service in 1743 as a volunteer in Captain Charles Knowles’s expedition against the Spanish American settlements. Subsequently Tonge became an ensign in the 45th Foot and served in garrison at Louisbourg, Cape Breton Island, from 1746 to 1749, when his regiment was sent to assist in the establishment of Halifax [see Edward Cornwallis]. Commissioned lieutenant on 8 April 1755, Tonge served as assistant engineer to John Brewse in the capture that year of Fort Beauséjour (near Sackville, N.B.) [see Robert Monckton]. He saw service under Amherst at the siege of Louisbourg in 1758 and under Wolfe* at Quebec the following year. With the fall of Quebec his active military career came to an end, and he apparently left the army some time between 1763 and 1765.
By that time Tonge had begun to acquire large tracts of land in Nova Scotia. His first grant, about 130 acres, was received shortly after the fall of Beauséjour and was situated in what was soon to become Cumberland County. His holdings in what later became Hants County dated from 1759 and 1760 and included about 5,000 acres. Over the next 15 years he devoted considerable time and money to his property; writing in 1774, Governor Francis Legge observed that Tonge had spent over £3,000 in agricultural improvements. When the American revolution broke out, Tonge volunteered for military service and was made colonel in the militia on 5 Sept. 1781. Partly because his duties demanded much of his time, and partly because he suffered heavy losses at the hands of American privateers, by the end of the revolution his savings were “dissipated and a considerable debt incurr’d.” He never recovered financially; by 1789 he had been forced to sell most of his property, including Winckworth, his estate in Hants County.
Although Tonge’s financial affairs had taken a turn for the worse, he remained an important political figure in the colony. In 1759–60 he had sat in the House of Assembly for Cumberland County, and he represented Kings County from 1765 to 1783 and Hants County from 1785 until his death. Governor Legge wrote in 1774 that Tonge was esteemed by his constituents and “well Attached to the Interest of the Country.” His involvement in provincial affairs was extensive. At various times he served as justice of the peace, custos rotulorum for Hants, justice of the Inferior Court of Common Pleas for Hants, and provincial surveyor or superintendent of roads, bridges, and public works.
Tonge’s most important appointment came in 1773, when he was sworn in as naval officer for the colony. His chief duty was the careful regulation of shipping between Nova Scotia and Europe, Asia, Africa, and America. The position was to make him the centre of political controversy for many years. Within a few months of his appointment he managed to alienate the governor, Lord William Campbell. Before 1773 the governor had appointed deputy naval officers throughout the colony, a prerogative Tonge now claimed as his own. Tonge sought to regulate the activities of these officers and claimed half their fees for himself. His behaviour created a furor in both business and political circles, especially when he increased the fees collected. Appeals were urgently sent to the Board of Trade for relief. According to Lord Dartmouth, the secretary of state for the American Colonies, Tonge was “in right of his Commission . . . to appoint Deputies” and had the power to collect fees. He made it clear, however, that the Board of Trade was opposed to the collection of fees since they felt the salary of the naval officer was sufficient for his support: “If Mr Tonge thinks fit to avail himself of the Act of Parliament, and receive Fees, their Lordships will not think him intituled to receive the Salary.” Tonge opted for the salary since the fees were inconsiderable.
Tonge’s political stock seems to have risen considerably in 1774, when Governor Legge recommended him, “a Gentleman of good Character & Reputation,” for appointment to the Council. This political manœuvre by the governor to form an alliance with one of the leading members of a hostile assembly failed; Tonge balked at Legge’s advances and the governor withdrew his recommendation.
Tonge’s position as naval officer brought him into renewed conflict with the assembly and the mercantile community following the American revolution. In an attempt to limit the widespread smuggling that was taking place Tonge endeavoured to enforce the navigation laws rigidly, and to increase his income he again began to collect fees. Reaction was swift. The attorney general, Sampson Salter Blowers*, protested in 1786 that Tonge was exceeding his powers, and the assembly even debated whether the naval office should be abolished. Faced with this general assault on his position, Tonge fought back: “I do declare & can Prove, I have not in any Instance Demanded anything but what is fully authorized by Acts of Parliament . . . and that so far from being Exorbitant in my Demand of Fees, they are by no means Adequate to the Trouble and Expense of Keeping Offices Open.”
The debate between Tonge, the assembly, and the mercantile community continued over the next few years. In 1790 the matter was settled and a fee table established. Although more restricted than in the past, the naval office was still intact when Tonge died, a tired but resolved man, in 1792. (Dictionary of Canadian Biography)

Piccadilly - Safe4Summer.
The initiative is part of the Government’s mission to restore and strengthen local policing in communities and reduce or prevent anti-social behaviour (ASB). As part of this, there will be a greater visibility of Greater Manchester Police (GMP) officers and partners as we work together across crime hot spot areas.
Kate Green, Deputy Mayor for Safer and Stronger Communities, said: "We’re determined to ensure Greater Manchester is a safer place for everyone. The Safer Streets Summer Initiative is a testament to our dedication to reducing crime and enhancing the quality of life for our residents.
“By continuing to work closely with our communities and partners, we aim to create an environment where everyone feels safe and can enjoy not only the summer but all year round and every year. We’ll be working hard to ensure our town centres are safe and welcoming for all.”
Assistant Chief Constable Matt Boyle, GMP’s lead for Local Policing, said: “Our neighbourhoods are negatively impacted by various crimes such as the illegal use of e-bikes, drug dealing and other ASB.
“As a force, it’s our mission to listen to our community’s concerns and take action where crime is committed. Our proactive approach to tackling neighbourhood crime has meant that since 2021, we’ve reduced burglary by a third and vehicle crime by a quarter, thanks to the dedication of our local neighbourhood teams, working closely with partners across the region.
“Over the summer months, they will be focusing on increasing engagement with our communities to listen and respond to their concerns. Residents and business owners will also see an increase in the visibility of officers and partners, as we work together to ensure a safe summer for all. This isn’t about trying to spoil people’s fun over the summer months, it is making sure everyone can enjoy themselves without feeling unsafe or being hurt.
“We welcome the Home Office initiative, which perfectly aligns to the neighbourhood policing model our force implemented locally two years ago. Safe4Summer is the perfect opportunity to highlight the strength of our partnerships in Greater Manchester, and our determination to minimise crime and disorder and to ensure Greater Manchester is a safer and more desirable place for all.”
TravelSafe Partnership Manager at Transport for Greater Manchester, Kate Green, said: “While the vast majority of people using the Bee Network do so safely and responsibly, we know that crime and anti-social behaviour increases over school holidays, and that is not something we will tolerate.
“We work hard every day to keep people safe, whether that’s through our engagement programme or the many proactive operations that take place. We will have an increased presence across the Bee Network to prevent and deter incidents, helping people to travel and enjoy their summer safely and with confidence.”
In 2023, Greater Manchester Police made a commitment that every district ward has a named local police officer, and we would keep communities informed through our use of the community messaging service, Bee in the Loop, which provides the latest news on events and incidents straight to your email inbox.
In April 2025, we welcomed the opportunity to further strengthen our neighbourhood offer, with an increase in numbers of neighbourhood officers by 176, to help GMP to continue to deliver in tackling crime and working with partners and communities to keep our streets safe.

Governments around the world are drawing on behavioural insights to improve public policy outcomes: from automatic enrolment for pensions, to better tax compliance, to increasing the supply of organ donation.
But those very same policy makers are also subject to biases that can distort decision making. The Behavioural Insights Team has been studying those biases and what can be done to counter them, in collaboration with Jill Rutter and Julian McCrae of the Institute for Government.
The report was launched with remarks from Alex Chisholm, Permanent Secretary at the Department for Business, Energy, and Industrial Strategy.
Dr Michael Hallsworth, Director of the Behavioural Insights Team in North America presented the key findings.
The findings, their relevance to policy making today, and what they mean for the way governments make decisions were discussed by:
Polly Mackenzie, Director of Policy for the Deputy Prime Minister, 2010–15 and now Director of Demos
Dr Tony Curzon Price, Economic Advisor to the Secretary of State for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy.
The event was chaired by Jill Rutter, Programme Director at the Institute for Government.
