Three storey redbrick 1980-90s new flats beside the canal in the heart of Birmingham, there is bird, or a statue of a bird, on top of a white tower above the flats.

Gas Street Basin with moored narrowboats below the glass tower that is the Hyatt Regency Hotel on Broad Street Birmingham. The lettering on the redbrick says Regency Wharf.

Went to Brum today to hear #MoHoCoLoGo and @localtrust.org.uk talk about the opportunities and challenges of #PrideInPlace. Ran into a some familiar faces and some new ones and heard some inspiring stories too. Then on the way home I spotted @everyheron.bsky.social beside Gas Street Basin
