Description An Australian Magpie ("Gymnorhina tibicen", if you wanna get scientific about it) sifting through the compost bin in our backyard for things to eat like worms, cockroaches, orange peels (haha yeah right) etc.

Here's a magpie ->>> [link]
I like all in my place! The climate, the river, the city, the nature... I'd never change my place on something else

Ah yes, they are quite different, especially the colour of the beak and the feather colour pattern.

That's great. Not many people love where they live, they usually want to move somewhere else. What is your school like?

A white three-floors building, small, but comfortable (if you're about a house).

If you think your three-floor house is small for you, then my one-floor house must be tiny! XD
Do you have a garden where you grow flowers, grass, vegetables, trees and things?

I mean my school
I live in four-rooms apartment.
When I was five-ten years, there was a kitchen garden near with my home where we had put vegetables and then got it for our needs. After re-building the road near with us, it was erased. But my grandparents still have their kitchen garden, so it's good.
My father is often taking me for working in his greenhouse with flowers. He nurtures it and then gives it for planting in the city.

Oh ok. Do you like your apartment?

What do your grandparents grow, in their kitchen garden?

So your dad grows plant for the council to plant next to the street, in the gardens? Sounds nice, he must know a lot about plants, and how much water and nutrients to give them. I love to be able to grow vegetables/fruit, then you know it does not have pesticide or chemicals on it.

RusCSI In reply to raven-2007 [2009-05-31 13:38:12 +0000 UTC]

Yes, i do.
Potato, onion, tomato, garlic, cucumber, tulip (a few), carrot, beet... That's all, I guess.

Well, they must eat quite healthy. I imagine it would be ideal weather for your grandparents right now in Russia, to grow their plants in the kitchen garden.
