scissor wing

This afternoon and evening I had to work. But I did get a chance to walk in Glendover Park in the morning.
This immature scissortail flycatcher let me get close enough to take a picture:



Our local AM radio is filled with people running ads to become Railroad Commissioner. The Railroad Commission, oddly enough, regulates oil and gas rather than railroads. One fellow's ad boasted about how he was opposed to tree hugging and lizard-saving. I like trees, lizards, and petroleum products, so I guess I never fit with either camp on these issues.

I finished a science fiction novel, and now must figure out what to download. Perhaps I will buy a complete set of Father Brown mysteries.

I don't think there's a digital version (though what do I know?) but I'm enjoying my friend Dan Kelly's book, thought you might like it too:

Father Brown mysteries--haven't visited (or even thought of) them in a while.

I found old British TV (not BBC, i don't think) adaptations streaming on Netflix. Those and some old Tommy and Tuppence mysteries are now my go-to amusement when Christine is not around.

I am not to be trusted with written fiction: i read it all up without stopping. That's what happened to my Saturday evening.
