Small Peculiar

Actually, it got up to 63F in the city today, not that I experienced it personally because I was immured in my apartment editing. I also don’t have a Dickensian nightcap like that. But two pigeons seem to be scoping out my air conditioner as a potential nest location: I have seen them now two days in a row. I’d put out a nesting box, but my lease forbids that kind of thing. (I’m already pushing it with the little outdoor porch I set up for the cats.)
