Birds eye view from the top branch. Tidying your garden might be the ruination of the best viewpoint for other species. #Garden #veiwpoint #Mastodon #Fediverse12

#French #history. #DeGaulle famously said there has only ever been one #République. If true it began, in my opinion, with the 3rd Rep. Born of blood. Died in blood. But held a steady course through a surprisingly notorious scandalous affair (the Cambridge 5 was potentially far more severe than #Dreyfus yet with scarcely a ripple of constitutional angst). It lasted 70 years. It was functionally efficient and reformative. Its leaders weren’t grand historical figures but competent. #Veiwpoint.🇫🇷
