In the midst of life

Don't think me morbid. Despite the temperate weather we have had last night we had freakishly high wind gusts, and Sue told me that the ute was full of hail when she went off to work at 6 a.m.
The hail was still on the ground when I came back from the bus at 8.10 as too was the late magpie, pictured right. We have a colony of anything up to ten of them. I was reminded again, as I have been too many times in the last fortnight, how despite all our social sophistication we still have to live in harmony with our mighty environment. Alas! dear birdie the environment got the better of you.
