<p>Hello,</p>
<p></p>
<p>Now it's the school holidays and Easter my sense that it is quieter in the neighbourhood, with some people away. For the Food Bank we continue with our service as best as we can. Our numbers had gone down a bit as the New Year passed, but in the last few weeks we have now seen a definite increase in our numbers. We have had a steady core of volunteers with others who occasionally helped. We are now seeing that erode, so we need to be open to new people volunteering on a Saturday morning from 10am-12.15pm. It is more about availability and willingness to help out wherever needed. Assisting us for two Saturdays a month is probably what we are looking for, apart from months when you are on holiday. After a while with new volunteers it is usually possible to find a couple of roles where people feel they are more comfortable. We are also expanding our information and signposting service, so an interest in this could be helpful. We are linked into receiving external training in person every 6 weeks on a Tuesday at Chestnuts Community Centre from 5.30-6.30pm starting in early May. There would be further support provided internally. If you are interested in volunteering with us or have questions please contact us at gospelcfoodbank@gmail.com</p>
<p>Also, our Just Giving page is still open. We are looking to reach our target of £1,000 to provide additional nutritional items for our visitors. You can find our <span>Just Giving page <a href="https://www.justgiving.com/crowdfunding/Gospelcfoodbank?utm_medium=email&utm_source=ExactTarget&utm_campaign=20240313" target="_blank" rel="noopener">https://www.justgiving.com/crowdfunding/Gospelcfoodbank?utm_medium=email&utm_source=ExactTarget&utm_campaign=20240313</a> </span></p>

<p>It's not hard to spot the nesting birds around Harringay at the moment, there's a marvellous magpie nest in one of the trees in my street, you can't miss its big dome shape which I spent several minutes watching two magpies constructing. I've also seen signs of sparrows in a hedge on my street.</p>

<p>Today as I was leaving Railway Fields, I noticed that a wren was hard at work building a nest in the corner of a covered balcony that overlooks Railway Fields. It was quite a distance from me so I've annotated the photos so that you can spot both the bird and the nest. </p>
<p><a href="https://storage.ning.com/topology/rest/1.0/file/get/12404716471?profile=original" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><img src="https://storage.ning.com/topology/rest/1.0/file/get/12404716471?profile=RESIZE_710x" width="350" class="align-center"/></a>It is the male wren that is the nest builder. He will construct up to a dozen nests and then try to persuade a female that he has mated with to take up residence. So a nest may not even get used if a female decides its not a des res. If, however, she likes it she will line it with moss, feathers and leaves and lay her eggs. I'm not sure (and willing to be corrected) but it looks to me like this wren has some lining material in her mouth and is getting ready to move in.</p>
<p>Although the male is polygamous and only the female incubates, he will help to feed the chicks. At this time of year, he is also fiercely territorial. His astonishingly loud song will signal his presence. Despite his tiny size, weighing about the same as a pound coin, he has a big voice. <span>In fact, per unit weight, a wren sings at ten times the power of a crowing cockerel!</span></p> Spinner compost bintag:harringayonline.com,2024-03-26:844301:Topic:15688892024-03-26T14:29:09.795ZAdrienne Letarnechttps://harringayonline.com/profile/AdrienneLetarnec

<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Here is the synopsis:</span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Arrakis is preparing for war. With House Atreides decimated, and the might of House Harkonnen bearing down across the planet, Paul Atreides (Timothée Chalamet) unites with Chani (Zendaya) and the Fremen to seek revenge against the conspirators who destroyed his family. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Facing a choice between the love of his life and the fate of the universe, Paul must prevent a terrible future only he can foresee – and a dark destiny of his own.</span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Helmed once again by visionary director Denis Villeneuve, Dune: Part Two continues the epic story of Frank Herbert's acclaimed science-fiction odyssey. </span></p>
<p class="p2">It’s in 70mm and 4K Dolby Atmos.<br/></p>
