And, last but by no means least, a headless duck and the ugliest statue I think I've seen to date:
Vultures. Who makes a statue immortalising vultures, without any ironic intent? Even in the 1860s.

Spring in Paris
I recently mentioned on Twitter that it was very much Spring here in Paris, and was asked for photographic proof. (Hi Tim!) As well as the flowers in Sunday's post, then, here are some photos of spring in Paris, for those of you in more benighted parts of the world that don't get sunshine. (Hi Britain!)

Happy Mothers' Day!
Today is Mothers' Day in France - unlike in the UK, where it's sometime in March - so, Happy Mothers' Day to all of you who are mothers, and to my mum in particular! (It has just dawned on me that she may not yet have the address to this blog - I shall give it to her forthwith...)
Since it would be impractical and unenvironmental to send flowers to all the women I know who are mothers, I have taken some photos of flowers from the park near us, which will have to do instead. I'm sure you'll appreciate them in the spirit in which they were intended...
Flowers!
