Cuckoos'
shameless egg-laying tactics revealed
Great spotted cuckoos lay their eggs while magpie
mothers are still sitting on their nests, a study has shown. Cuckoos are known
for deceiving other birds into raising their young by depositing their eggs
into host nests. It had been thought female cuckoos waited until host birds
left the nest before secretively laying their eggs. The scientists, who work at

About
Mercury direct station today , Eric Francis writes
Mercury stations direct at 12:50 UT Tuesday (Jul 1),but
we’re in the most interesting and/or challenging part of the retrograde — the
last moments before the change of directions. Mercury is slow and powerful
right now, with added emphasis. Note that this tricksterish planet is in
Gemini, one of the signs that Mercury rules, and the one that most emphasizes
the two-sided nature of consciousness. That’s a reminder not to be surprised by
surprises, to pay attention for the other side of the story, and to search your
own mind for options and possibilities that you may not have noticed before.
This effect will become increasingly prominent as the station-direct approaches
on Tuesday.
This might have the “truth revealed” effect that
Mercury stations are so famous for (or at least that I have observed many
times). This may be sly and it may be subtle; the effect may be 100% dependent
on mindfulness. Many things are revealed that we tend not to notice. Plenty of
highly relevant information bubbles out of the back of consciousness that never
gets put to use.

strange coincidence, the Sabian symbol for the current New Moon [6cn] is about “birds feathering their nests” !
