"Lakeside" by Photographer Shane Rocheleau

Under the patchy lawns of Lakeside, there lies a pre-colonial "Oughnum", or "good hunting land" in the indigenous Algonquian dialect. In early Spring one year, my family and I watched a pair of Red-bellied Woodpeckers bore a nest for their clutch at the rotting end of a shorn bow. They did their work several paces from where we sat each afternoon. Eventually, the excavating stopped and the female settled in. We joyfully awaited little chirps. One morning, we found two eggs broken beneath the nest and another unbroken at the center of the yard. In an Orwellian nod to Manifest Destiny, European Starlings had raided the nest and made it their own.

Cheers as plans for flats that were 'too close' to existing homes thrown out

Labour committee chair Cllr Mahym Bedekova stated the plan was too close to neighbouring homes and would become too overcrowded. Conservative committee member Cllr Michael Rye agreed. He said: It's overdevelopment for the site, the car-free element cannot be justified given that there's no controlled parking zone (CPZ) in place. This will add parking stress, which is already an issue on the road.
