10 June 2025 – First we join respectful others in Douglas Park, peering upwards into adjacent trees…

to catch any available glimpse of the barred owl family…

that has taken up residence.

Then we walk back out West 17th, stopping to look up once more…

to enjoy the play of tender new red & green leaves overhead, tossing their shadows back & forth as they ripple with the breeze.

And finally, having reached our chosen café, we cast our eyes downward to properly savour (respectively) a macchiato and a latte.

All of it a cause for delight, this sunny morning.
