Thanks to Colin Winterbottom for sharing these incredible photos he took July 1st at the National Cathedral:
“Details: Usually wary of cities, peregrine falcons were first seen in DC in the 90s yet it remains unusual to see one in the city. He isn’t nesting at the Cathedral; I saw & heard him the day before but not since. The Minotaur gargoyle represents a mythological half-man / half-bull; he is clutching a young human sacrificed to him. The gargoyle is near the top of the south west tower facing the Bishop’s Garden. It was designed by Jay Carpenter and carved by Cary Shafer.”

“Tiffany’s Bar & Bistro, the modern Mediterranean restaurant located on H Street’s historic corridor, is celebrating its one-year anniversary on July 15th. The husband-and-wife duo Malti Chaudhari and Mehmet Suktuli opened Tiffany’s in celebration of their love story and Mehmet’s Ottoman-style culinary roots. Tiffany’s is resemblant of the couple’s personal love story, as Malti’s engagement ring was purchased from Tiffany’s & Co, the couple’s marker of the beginning of their journey. Within days of the restaurant’s opening, the couple welcomed the birth of their daughter, whose name is carefully imbued in one of the restaurant’s many murals hand-painted by Mehmet and friends.
On Wednesday, July 15th, guests dining at Tiffany’s will receive a complimentary glass of champagne to celebrate the anniversary alongside their meal. (more…)
