Great picture Woo! He looks a bit camera shy this time. We don't have foxes on the island, something I miss.

I have mixed feelings about magpies.On one hand, they are fascinating to watch, and extremely clever. It always amuses me they way they hop along the ground like cartoon characters.On the other hand, they are nasty. At the last house we had wrens nesting in the dilapidated former outside...

Sultanas wow they are just the favourite food of people too It looks life Blackbirds like to hear their food before they eat it BG

Ziggy,

Excellent photos!

Yep, that Allium the Bee's on. It was a bit of a surprise when it came up in the Border as I couldn't remember planting it. The Bee's like it and it has lasted a very long time.:D
