"So much of L.A. life is about coming and going, but the readers here inhabit an in-between space where motion has stopped and time is suspended . . . ."

For the Los Angeles Times, Thomas Curwen visits the Silver Lake Reading Club, where readers enjoy their books in silence: https://www.latimes.com/california/story/2024-05-29/shhhh-the-silver-lake-reading-club-has-started

Bullock’s Orioles prefer to live in the ecotone: the transition area between two different habitats. (New word to me, today.)

Long Beach, CA has some city-numbered bicycle routes.
Los Angeles County should do some numbered cross-county bicycle routes in time for Olympics. Some examples are:
Route 1: Santa Monica Pier to Union Station via Hollywood
Route 2: Long Beach to Union Station
Route 3: Palos Verdes to Malibu
Route 4: Claremont to Burbank
Route 5: Chatsworth to Pasadena
These bike routes could be invested in as connected corridors of bike lanes with good wayfaring signage.

It was a pleasure to be a part of the keynote panel at the conference. I got to share my work with an engaged and insightful audience, and I learned so much from the panels.

LA Times: Cloudy with a chance of rage: Climatologists fume over relocation of L.A. weather station. A decision by government forecasters to relocate downtown L.A.’s official weather observation station from USC to Dodger Stadium is generating extreme heat and wind gusts from some local climate experts. They insist the move will cast fog on local efforts to document the effects of climate change. https://www.latimes.com/environment/story/2024-05-17/meteorologists-fume-over-relocation-of-l-a-weather-station

White-faced ibis would prefer a marsh, but a golf course water hazard will suffice in a pinch.
