desperanceI have seen crows mobbing a hawk overhead; I have seen mockingbirds mobbing a crow on the telegraph wires.
There must, I guess, be a mockingbird nest real close to us, because I've just seen a brave little mockingbird mobbing Leo the neighbour's cat as he strolled across our front yard. Poor Leo was brave too, and did most firmly stick to strolling, even though he was obviously unnerved by the vicious little thing.
Meanwhile, best idea of the day: oregano flowers in the lunchtime salad.
Worst idea of the day: a thrifty version of a walnut/parsley pesto, utilising parsley stalks and parmesan rind. That just totally did not work. So much for thrift, say I; give me luxury or give me something else. No substitutions.
