It has come to my notice that the second annual Blogger’s silly week is upon us and I nearly missed it!!
Trying to refocus out of serious mode into silly mode reminded me of some incidents during my recent weekend away in York…
When I was walking in the museum gardens I noticed an unusual coloured pigeon and thought it would make an interesting photograph. The pigeon obviously had other ideas!
Take One – (now you see me now you don’t)
Take Two – (I hope you weren’t expecting me to pose for you!)
The title was inspired by Tom Lehrer – Poisoning Pigeons in the Park
Something tells me that pigeon was one step ahead of the game 
What? Not sure I am following – I need some guidelines hun , xxx
I got lots of pics of the grey pigeons but this lovely beige pigeon just wouldn’t stay still long enough for me to get a pic of him.
The first photo I had him all framed up and pressed the shutter and before the camera had time to process he had gone….
Ahem … remember what Andrew told us before he disappeared? Time for other things for a while, and when that time is over I may return, if entropy spares me..
Seriously, we ought to be worried.
I was thinking very much of Andrew when I posted this, I nearly commented as such and linked back to him. Then I thought some of my readers would be very confused!!
I AM very worried :-O
Andrew in another incarnation as a pigeon?
I think it is someone from the mother ship and Andrew is not here to protect us any more…
We have to be vigilant!!!
Dear CherryPie, dear Ruth, confused Others:
In above mentioned latest – hopefully not last – post Andrew“ left us (alone with) a mysterious formula.
Same day, Thursday, July 22nd, the esteemed Jams O’Donnell Esq. informed the plantes population that there’s a a wood henge been found at Stonehenge.
An guess what? In this very article (don’t miss the comment-section!) the name of the man is mentioned who was responsible for the last thing Andrew could show us before he vanished – the mysterious formula. The man’s name: Ludwig Boltzmann.
And: Today Boltzmann left a comment (!) on Mr. O’Donnell’s blog.
How could he?! It’s said Boltzmann in September 1906 moved to his last dwelling six feet under the Viennese Zentralfriedhof.
Ah, I could go on and on, but I don’t want to increase your worries such late in the evening.
Thus, to cut it short: I fear there won’t be anymore postings on Andre’s blog. Unless … well, unless … ah, have you ever heard of a blogging pigeon?
May the peace of the night be upon us and poor Andrew.
Now reading through all this again with Boltzmann popping up all over the place. I really fear for our dear friend Andrew.
Cherie calling Andrew – if you can here me, please make contact and let us know you are OK!!!
Now tell me you weren’t loitering on a seat in the park.
The benches were to wet for that unfortunately
I clearly haven’t been keeping up…but I have lots of photo’s like that! Wildlife has a habit of not being particularly posey
I am being a little off beat
I just couldn’t get a decent photo of the light coloured pigeon, I think he was having a laugh at my expense!
This is what happens when people get told just a little bit about things they don’t understand. There is an explanation for everything, and I am working on it right now. It just might take me a few years. Know this, however: the pigeon in Take 1 is still there. OK. Hope that sets minds just slightly more at ease. I nip off for a few days on very important business, and return to find you all in a muddle without me. I am going away again soon too, sorry, but studying S = k. logW might help whenever I am gone.
Yes there is always an explanation for everything but I think I am going to need a little help on S = k. logW
It has left us all in dire confusion whilst you have been away!
I still can’t see the pigeon in take one…
