The semi-tame local pheasant whom I have named Philip landed on top of my bird table this afternoon.

Darwin Bicentennial Oak, 2009

I have just planted what shall henceforth be known as the Darwin Bicentennial Oak in our garden.

Reading up on Darwin in my study this morning.

Good to see the world's favourite search engine getting into the spirit of things on Darwin's 200th birthday.

The Friends of Charles Darwin have their first member from Malta.
