In Vivo

 a robin
First signs of winter?

I'm back in work today, and all though the morning is pretty frantic, the afternoon soon dwindles into not much of anything to do (including work) - all very time consuming and not very productive.

This evening though I set about having another go at the triops kit now that I've got enough mineral water and the like to fill the tank. It's quite fiddly, and we have had to rig up a light over the tank to try and maintain the water temperature, but I'm hoping that by tomorrow we will be able to add the eggs into the tank and see if any of the triops hatch. I hope they do, I had reasonable success with sea monkeys and so my thinking is that the triops can't be all that much more different.

Not much going on otherwise, it seems the day has slipped away like a stealth bomber, only it's not been so exciting.

Oh, I just thought of something, I saw my first robin - is it a sign that winter is on its way? It feels like it that's for sure.
