I think my feathered friend has met a bad end.

When I was out watering the plants in the greenhouse I noticed a dead bird on the path outside of our house, it was black and fluffed up and at first, I thought it could have been a baby bird but on investigation, it looked smaller as it had bits missing. I've only seen Mrs Blackbird in the last two days, and even then only once, so I fear the worst. Mr Blackbird was so feisty I wouldn't be at all surprised if he took on a cat and came off second best.

Apparently, Lucy has started nesting. To show me that Kayleigh sent me a photo of their fridge which has been cleaned, and now holds a bottle of water, some apples and a jar of Branston Pickle. Slim picking for meals there I think *g*

I finished two great long stories yesterday, the Schitt's Creek I was reading on my desktop and the time-travelling butler for Downton Abby on my Fire. But, I did see a Musketeer Dragon short had been posted so I'll check that out later.

Oh, no, Mr. Blackbird! Poor dear. He tried so hard. :-(

I still like FOB more than MCR for whatever reasons, but to be honest, the only reason that TBP didn't make my Island playlist was Cancer. I just couldn't stand listening to that song forever.

Awww, I hope Kayleigh and Lucy are enjoying themselves and eating more than pickles!

Alas for the bird! Nature red in tooth and claw, I guess. I hope the babies make it through though.

29 years together is admirable.

And Black Parade is forever engrained on my mind!

Poor Mr Blackbird! Hopefully his family is still well even if you haven't seen them. If the chicks were big enough to leave the nest they might just have left the area.

Has it really been five years since your marriage?! It feels like it was just a couple of years ago!
