(and the like) from each of this journal's entries with the statement at
the bottom of this entry.  Am presently about halfway through June 2007. 

Through my window - This apartment building is lengthwise parallel with
the apartment building about 20 yards north, but this one (although the
same size) does not extend as far west.  The weed grass yard between
the two is not level, and at this time of the year about 30% light tan.  
A walkway of spaced hexagonal blocks runs at an eastward angle from
that building to this one, connecting two plank passthroughs between
apartments in each building.  That building is on lower ground, and a
scant open culvert runs parallel to the buildings about 15 feet out from
that building.  This morning when I looked straight out a squirrel was
moving along the walkway from there to here.  That/ near/ 8:30 AM.
Then 6 mourning doves/ closer to here were pecking in the grasses
near the hex blocks.  At 10:22, while I was seated on my computer
stool, I noted dark things to my right.  I went to the window and saw
at least 50 starlings on or near the other building.  At 12:51 PM in the
sturdy bush the usual cardinal sat, and juncos flitted around.  At 1 PM
several starlings momently swooped in.  Then I got seriously into re-
doing my blog.  More about the buildings another day.  Much of today
the sky was cloudy.  It is cold, and a sprinkling of snow has remained
on the grasses.
