153 years ago today, Joséphine Bowes bought this mechanical mouse while she was in London. This automaton was a gift for John's 60th birthday and may have had an extra special meaning for them as John called Joséphine 'Puss'.

Let's take a moment to appreciate the trees around us and consider how we can contribute to their preservation and growth. Plant a tree, support local reforestation efforts or simply spend some time in nature today.

The Silver Swan is back in the The Bowes Museum picture galleries so more people can experience her daily 2 p.m. playing. Thanks to all who supported her restoration to working order. It feels appropriate she's sitting in front of paintings of canals in Venice! 1/2
