Brightening the day....

Is there anyone who actually like pigeons? (even in a pie?) They perch on the roof, just outside the bedroom window, coo-cooing. Okay, perhaps this is what pigeons were designed to do, but do they have to do it 20 minutes before the break of day?
Every day?
I am not a fan (you guessed?), so this made me smile.

(I would like to think perhaps it is adventurous taxidermy, but probably not.....)

  While there, we did the culture thing, visiting an exhibition on at the Walker gallery (liverpoolmuseums.org.uk/rankin). Thought-provoking, particularly the life masks. Most of us have seen the occasional death mask. By their very nature, we expect them to be lifeless, no longer dancing under the influence of our conscious and unconscious thoughts. But these too, were free of expression. Then, reading the names of those featured, the realisation that some are now deceased.
Mildly disturbing.
But definitely worth a look, if you have the chance.
Also explored the new library, just down the way. Brilliant, will have to go back for a proper shufty.
And the view from the fourth floor? Well worth the climb.
Recognise it?

Of course you do!
