The other day I noticed a pigeon at our window with human hair tightly tangled on both feets - with one toe already black.
After a couple days of trying, I caught them this afternoon!
I was SHAKING, but managed to get all the hair off every toe except the dead one - which will eventually fall off.

Before and after.
I wasn’t sure how I was going to feel seeing my long locks cut off, but I have absolutely no regrets.
Hair feels amazing.
And I know my hair donation will help someone going through cancer treatment feel more confident in their wig.

Last night with my long hair.
Tomorrow, I’m donating it to a cancer wig charity 💇🏼♀️
If my hair can bring a bit of confidence to someone with cancer - get ‘er done.

Yesterday evening a couple friends, Matt and I went on an organised Nightjar Walk in Coulman’s Hatch in Ashdown Forest, UK.
Not only did we see a couple nightjars, but also woodcock, and a few other birds I now can’t remember the names of 🌳🌅🐥

Yesterday I went out for lunch.
Came home with a poorly pigeon.
Greenwich Wildlife Network (UK) picked them up late last night.
I hope they’re doing alright 🐦❤️🩹🥲

I had a random vision of arriving in ‘heaven’, and being told “Your friends have been waiting for you”
It looked like this… 🕊️🥹💞
(I’m fine… just a VERY random moment - hormones and full moon)

Dad has been diagnosed with stage 2 prostate cancer - could have been much worse.
Just had a brilliant chat on FaceTime with my parents - they are quite optimistic about it all. Their consultant sounds fabulous.
He’ll have a mix of radiation and hormone therapy.
Fuck cancer.

After two years of first communications, and seven months of actual work commenced…
We have windows and a sealed flat!
Wow. I can breathe again through both nostrils.

As I was walking past rough sleeper on High Street, she asked if I had spare change.
I didn’t. I apologised, gave her a peace sign with my hand & wished her well.
She called after me, saying “You reminded me of that show!” Held up her hand & quoted “Nanu Nanu!”
I repeated back ✌️🥲🤍

Any UK mouse knowledge?
Matt came home earlier today with this wee one cowering by outside front door.
They were hiding from neighbour’s cat.
Matt kept them safe, while they composed themself, before running into front garden foliage.
We think a yellow-necked mouse, since we are South London?

You know when you’re having a “down” day.
It feels pretty low.
Randomly, someone came up to me, and said “I’m sorry to be weird, but your energy is really bright.”
It made my day 🥰
I was crying yesterday.

Just came home from Art Club.
Tonight we made moveable 2D puppets with only paper and split pins.
There should be a market for Dr. Martens for pigeons 🐦🥾😅

I’d been coveting an “oversized sweatshirt”, from Colourful Standard (£60).
It felt too expensive.
Went charity shop, and found a green sweatshirt in good nic for £9.
Well pleased 💚

I had a bit of a cancer scare.
For two weeks I had some rather distressing symptoms, which my GP immediately took seriously, and ordered necessary tests.
Results came back today - clear / negative 🙌
If you are experiencing worrying symptoms, no matter how embarrassing - get checked out.
