A LONG-TAILED TIT BIRD

This tiny ball of fluff with an impossibly long tail, has almost doubled in numbers since the 1980s. These flying lollipops flit from one tree to the next, pause, grab an invisible insect, and then move rapidly on.

They have sociable habits: youngsters from a previous brood will often help their parents raise the next one, in what scientists call "co-operative breeding". You never see a lone long-tailed tit. One is always followed by another, then another, until a host of them are flitting around you, seemingly fearless.

BACK TO SCHOOL

We start again. We are ready to work hard from home this time. It's not the same. We want to see each other. We want to walk, run, laugh, speak...We want to live and feel the spring outside, too. Anyway, soon we'll be able to enjoy an ordinary day, the usual routines...Let's do our work in a different way. Let's enjoy life anyway! 

Remember: Just for today...

POETRY

Poetry is an orphan of silence. The words never quite equal the experience behind them (by the American poet, Charles Simic)

Vachel Lindsay was born in 1879 in Springfield, Illinois and he died in 1931. His father was a Scottish country doctor. His mother's family was from Maryland and Virginia. They wanted Lindsay to become a doctor. When he began to write poetry, he wandered for several summers throughout the country reciting his poems in return for food and shelter.

John Agard was born on 21 June 1949 in British Guiana (now Guyana). He moved to England in 1977. He lives in south-east England. He is a poet and children's writer. He was selected for the Queen Medal for Poetry, in 2012.

TULIPS IN SPRING

Tulips brighten/lighten our days in early spring. Tulips normally begin emerging/coming out from the ground in March. they are the most colourful of all the spring flowers. They are also the easiest flowers you will ever grow. Just plant the bulbs/tubers in fall/autumn for blossoms the following spring. There are hundreds of beautiful tulips to choose from. Whether you plant them in groups of 10 to 1000, tulips always put on an impressive show. Tulip bulbs develop roots in the fall/autumn and then go dormant/asleep until early spring.
