Montreal's Medium-Density Multiplex Neighbourhoods
The media in this post is not displayed to visitors. To view it, please go to the original post.
Housing in Montreal is different from other parts of Canada. Specifically, the city of Montreal features plexes of various sizes that create dense and livable neigbourhoods and that make walking, biking and using public transit the easy choice.
Apart from creating lively neighbourhoods, this style of housing also means renting an apartment is more affordable to the average person. Finally, Montreal housing is architecturally interesting and unique, offering features like spiral staircases and balconies.

New sand martin nesting bank built in Hampshire
A new nesting bank is giving sand martins a better chance to thrive.
Located at Testwood Lakes Nature Reserve near Totton, it has been purpose-built by Hampshire and Isle of Wight Wildlife Trust to support the only known breeding colony of sand martins in the Test Valley.
The new structure replaces a previous artificial bank that had supported the colony for more than 20 years but had deteriorated over time.

Southern nest sites await return of history-making ospreys
Conservationists are awaiting the return of the first pair of ospreys to breed on England's south coast for 180 years.
Male osprey 022 and female CJ7 have nested at Careys Secret Garden near Wareham, Dorset, since 2022.
The pair are expected to return from their annual migration, usually to western Africa, in late March.
Analysis finds urban areas in England where no one lives within 15-minute walk of nature
There are urban areas of England where no one lives within a 15-minute walk of nature, government data shows, as ministers scramble to meet their access to nature targets.
While the data shows 80% of people live within walking distance of green or blue spaces such as a river, park or woodland, it also reveals a disparity between rural and poorer urban areas.
Everyone will have to have access to green or blue space under the government’s environmental improvement plan, published at the end of last year.

colonos alemanes

"¿Inmigrantes? Claro, siempre que tengan cierta procedencia"... En el siglo XIX por iniciativa estatal y de privados, Chile trajo colonos alemanes. Con una fuerte campaña "publicitaria" de tierras fértiles, cielos acogedores y oportunidades de negocios. Hoy algunos de sus descendientes miran con recelo a quienes migran desde otros países de la región. ¿Cómo se creó la idea del "Inmigrante anhelado" en Chile? ¿idiomas, color de piel, cultura?

Orange in Bloom / Sherborne Waltz - traditional English folk tune on viola
The media in this post is not displayed to visitors. To view it, please go to the original post.
I learnt this tune when I used to play for a morris team, but it wasn't used for any of the morris dances they did. We used to play it in the tune session that happened after practice/dancing out, as a slow waltz, and I've never actually seen the morris dance that goes with it.
I'm playing two B parts so the B section is double length (but nobody is dancing here and I like the B part too much to only play it once).
I have not added any reverb to the audio here -- that's the natural acoustic of this conservatory that I borrowed to make a few videos! (It used to be a cow shed.)
This fits on viola in first position in the original key, so no transposition/octave swapping is necessary. I haven't made solo viola sheet music for this one, but I have published a four-part harmony arrangement, which you can get in my pack of English tune arrangements here: payhip.com/b/438j (though please note the melody is printed in treble clef!)

Giraffes at Burgers' Zoo (04/03/2026)
The media in this post is not displayed to visitors. To view it, please go to the original post.
A 50-second video showing a serene, sunny day at the Safari plain in Burgers' Zoo. The video begins with a wide shot of a calm pond in the foreground, beautifully reflecting the blue sky and the bare winter trees lining the background. A couple of ducks are resting on the muddy bank. In the distance, a herd of giraffes is gathered near a large, fallen tree trunk.
As the camera gradually zooms in, the herd becomes clearer, revealing a mix of tall adult giraffes and several noticeably smaller, younger calves. They are casually wandering and standing close together on the sandy and grassy terrain. Toward the end of the video, a particularly large adult giraffe enters the frame from the right, gracefully bending its incredibly long neck all the way down toward the younger giraffes.
Fun fact: A group of giraffes standing together like this is called a "tower," and when they are walking, they are known as a "journey." Also, despite those famously long necks, a giraffe has the exact same number of neck vertebrae as a human—just seven!

Cities are fundamentally about living close to things you want, like jobs, schools, stores, services, and infrastructure, and that means living close to other people who want to access these amenities too. But cities and neighbourhoods vary enormously in density based on laws, geography, preferences, demographics, and historical development patterns. In this video we take a tour of population density in the U.S. and Canada, from semi-rural suburbs to ultra-dense downtowns.

Floating wetland in Bristol harbour providing new habitat
A new floating wetland in Bristol’s harbour is providing a habitat for wildlife like birds, otters and butterflies. Thousands of aquatic plants have been installed on the wetland, outside Capricorn Quay opposite the SS Great Britain, in an innovative way of fighting the decline in wildlife.
Six other similar wetlands are also planned by Bristol City Council. They form part of the comprehensive action plan over the next three years to help the environment, sparked after concerns about the alarming loss in wildlife. In Bristol for example, songbird populations, like swifts and starlings, have dropped by more than 96 per cent.
The last action plan ran from 2021 until last year, after councillors declared an “ecological emergency”. This included creating 80 hectares of new wetland at Hallen Marsh as part of the flood defences work in Avonmouth, creating new homes for voles, newts and barn owls.

Stormy the pine marten sets up home at Stormont
Pine martens are a rare enough sight these days but one of the elusive creatures has taken up residence at the home of the Northern Ireland Assembly in Belfast.
As part of a conservation project, nocturnal cameras have been set up in the Stormont Estate to monitor the movements of the pine marten.
The mammals can be identified individually by their fur coats because they each have unique markings on their throat and chest area, known as a "bib".
This particular pine marten, filmed at woods behind Parliament Buildings, has been given the name Stormy.

Water pollution: Plans to strengthen fines announced
For almost 20 years, the firm that oversees Northern Ireland's water network has been protected from the level of pollution fines dealt out to other water companies in the rest of the UK – but that could be about to change.
Northern Ireland Water has operated under special arrangements since its formation in 2007, due to an acknowledgement that the antiquated wastewater infrastructure has been underfunded.
However, Environment Minister Andrew Muir has signalled new reforms that could see NI Water face punishment for issues in the waterways.

Protect caterpillars as UK’s moth population plummets, urge charities
As spring unfolds and plants come to life, gardeners often fight a losing battle against the caterpillars who munch their cabbages.
Traditionally, advice for gardeners regarding caterpillars would be about how to get rid of them and stop unsightly holes in plants. But the Royal Horticultural Society (RHS) and the Wildlife Trusts are asking Britons to take a relaxed attitude to caterpillar carnage in order to support the moths many of them grow into.
For particularly treasured plants, the RHS recommends a pesticide-free approach, including manual removal, physical barriers and pruning.

- it uses a downstream Android kernel
- it does not use a mainline kernel
- the Android kernel creates dependencies and makes it difficult to keep up to date for more than a couple years
- their AppSuport is literally Android in a container with some proprietary parts
- their apps are scarce as they need to be built for the OS (no Flatpak or any other support for the existing mobile Linux software)
- the UI and some other components are proprietary
I believe those points make clear why I see more of a future in projects like Mobian, postmarketOS, Fedora Pocketblue.
Sure about the Android kernel?
I was pretty convinced they use a Linux kernel and only have an Android app compatibility layer

Riding to School with Snow Protected Bike Lanes on Hawley Road in Milwaukee, WI, USA
The media in this post is not displayed to visitors. To view it, please go to the original post.
My son keeps asking when he can ride his bike to school, but I don't trust the plastic delineators on the busy road to keep him in the correct spot. Milwaukee recently added a few jersey barriers to the road, which is a great start, but still not quite enough for me to feel comfortable with him riding there.
But! We recently had a lot of snow so I've been keeping an eye on the back path for when conditions might be correct for him to ride... and today was the day where a freshly cleared path with snowbank protection meant he got his wish!

Wing Tips: What to see in March
Wrens under roses, and Robins are smitten... as we spread our wings and soar beak-first into March, nature is undoubtedly waking from its slumber. With the colourful confetti cannon that is spring primed to fire, some of the best sights to see this month are just a wing tip away.
From romantic Robins to ravenous Wrens, there’s all kinds of amazing action taking place for home birds to admire. Venture further afield and you might spot a pair of in-spiralling Buzzards preparing to nest or hear raucous Rooks rebuilding their rookeries.
One thing’s for sure, spring is well and truly on its way, so let’s take a look at our top five birding spectacles to catch this March.

Somerset toad patrol helps thousands of animals cross road safely
Toad patrol volunteers helped almost 10,000 animals cross a road last year, volunteer say.
The Toads on Roads Patrol is a group of volunteers going out every night between January and March to Hawkridge Reservoir on the Quantocks in Somerset to carry toads, frogs and newts over the road.
The group is part of the Friends of the Quantocks group and is continuing to help with the crossing this year.

Lakenheath Fen re-wets land the size of 168 football pitches
It's the size of 168 football pitches and – if utilised correctly – could provide the perfect place for threatened species to thrive once more.
But, for hundreds of years, a 296-acre (120-hectare) plot of former arable farmland in The Fens has been the antithesis to a wildlife paradise, having long been drained dry.
That was until the Royal Society for the Protection of Birds (RSPB) decided to reinvigorate the soil site by rewetting it, creating a new nature-friendly peatland at Lakenheath Fen, in Suffolk.
