Weekly Wrap 848: This shaggy raven is nothing to crow about

A shaggy black bird looks at us as it perches on a wooden fence railing, along which are entwined the leafless branches of a vine, probably a grape vine. In the background are the trees and well-manicured pawns of a gold course.

My week of Monday 24 to Sunday 30 August 2026 began at a conference in Bowral, where I managed to check out the local bird life as well as learning things. Once back n Sydney, I got some client work done. I fed two cats while their humans were away. And there was progress of a sort in the saga of The Lost Module.
