Happy New Year, and how!

I am using dialup, which is like walking through treacle, so forgive me if it's a short note. The munchkins go back to school next week, so I hope to do a bit of shameless birding, trying to bump up my American list. I got a lifer last Thursday (grandpa's day off): Mountain Plover, a flock of about 60 wintering on fields below the Salton Sea in Imperial County. If I could I'd post a picture.
Great fun, of course, with the children, and a few munchkin gems. My favourite was a comment from Sophie:
"When Grandpa eats icecream, he gets all girlish and giggly."
Who me?
Love and stuff.
