ST 3361 (Hints)

Sunday Telegraph Cryptic No 3361 (Hints)

Hints and tips by Senf

A very good Sunday morning from Winnipeg.  So, Spring has sprung, the grass is riz, I wonder where the birdies is!  Since most of the grass is still covered by snow and ice, and what can be seen is brown, it is difficult to decide whether it has riz or not.  But we do have birdies.  Many of the small ones such as Chickadees, Nuthatches, and Sparrows are with us all year round regardless of the temperature.

A little late, but in the last couple of weeks snow sculptures have appeared on a pedestrians/cyclists only street in the downtown area – this is one of a turtle that appears to be about to consume a jelly fish – the wonders of nature!

For me, and I stress for me,© Dada quite friendly – seven anagrams (one partial), two lurkers, and no homophones in a symmetric 28 clues; with 14 hints ‘sprinkled’ throughout the grid you should/might be able to get some of the checkers to enable the solving of the unhinted clues. I hope you have your Crimson Tomes at hand!
