Michael Collins silent appreciation thread

He was an amazing person and astronaut. He was happy to play his role. He wrote a beautiful autobiography.

May our memories of him and his life’s accomplishments inspire generations to follow.

just had a blue tit smack into the back of our house (Instantly dead)

Looks like it broke its neck. It was quite a thud.

So I wrapped it up in newspaper, popped it into a ziplock, and placed it in the freezer.

Called the local taxidermy guy just out of town. £130 to mount it up.

At least the bird will have an after-life.

Need to find a nice glass dome.

Considering we counted 95 blue tit landings in an hour during the RSPB Birdwatch last season, I can suppose there is still a healthy population.
