A parish council notice board with leaflets promoting yoga, food banks, hearing loss support groups, grumpy wives action committees, community events and the like. I also paused to admire the bird's nest, sited high above, but denuded now by the winter climes but still an eloquent tribute to the annual optimism and field-craft of a pair of devoted parents who focus not on the odds stacked against them so massively but on the day-to-day actions, cooperation, devotion and hard-wired drives inherited from their many antecedents that will see them through and their brood fledge. I am always humbled by thinking of them, and of comparing my whiney, complaint wracked existence with every advantage at my disposal....This time of year is great for spotting many such nests and being encouraged.
