thanks cookie and i would love to see more pics of new forest or exmoor ponies iff anyone has been, i would love to go there maybe one day

Hec, that is not my feeder (unfortunately), it was at Blashford Lakes nature reserve in Hampshire. Siskins and Greenfinches will feed together.

Brilliant. We have families of these living under the tarpaulin that we cover the haylage up with in the winter. Everytime we pull the cover back there is a scurry of little furry bodies rushing to hide themselves again.

thanks cookie, yes the second one is the best it was the zoom on my camera its 12 mega pixels and when i zoom in too much my pics can get a bit hazy. i put a section in members gallery of the royal quays marina so got pics of the area were the heron was. i say waterfall its not like what we...

Thank you roders, woo, strongy, Sweet Cookie and Sis ... I hadn't actually noticed the little head in the last pic ... :dh: Yes, woo, it's a wonderful subject and I plan to study up on them now as I have lots of questions in my head regarding their habitat and lifestyle and that I see them...

:hehe::hehe::hehe:Sorry I should of Included some info:dh: but anyway =], It's a Greater stitchwort (Stellaria holostea) there would have been more photo's and things but it appears my camera is useless at taking pictures of white and yellow flowers:(

Good video Kedi, can you just nip down to the southern hemisphere and find out if they swim in a clockwise direction there.:thumb:

No, you're not alone, ladies. I share your distaste for captivity. However, there are occasions, as Kedi points out, where it is a species' salvation. I am currently hooked on the series "The Lion Man" where Craig Busch devotes all of his life to breeding lions and tigers at his park in New...

Hi Whis4ey Yes another great shot:thumb:

Morning Kathy. Yes we have a small pond. Its been here for several years on account of we used to suffer badly with flood water after heavy rain, so a the pond acts as a reservior for the excess. We have had frogs for longer then I can remember and lately we have the excitement of an almost...

Apologies glenw, I missed your posting but you appear to be correct ... the second photo down on the forum on your first link looks exactly the same and it was spotted in Portugal ... what a beautiful tail! I couldn't get your other two links. Hello, strongy, hope you had a nice break away...

Thanks Rosa :luv: xx

hi clueless the quarry nature reserve were i took these pics is 5 mins from my home, its north east uk close to whitley bay on the coast

yep thats the one. Yep its windy sounding. Last night one of them brought food and saw the other feeding the chicks with it, then they traded places and the other one flew off. So far I can't tell male from female they both take turns sitting on the nest. But there are two chicks. So cute....

Maybe you'll get him(?) to feed from your hand one day like Walnut.

cheers dave i have to do something cos its looking scrawny.I've used this stuff but dont know if i used enough of it???

I saw 2 new birds to put on my list yesterday - I went for a walk around the harbour in my lunch hour and saw a bird I later identified as a Rock Pippet and when I got home there was a Brown Linnet feeding on the niger seed in the garden - a deceptive name as it had red plumage on it's head and...

very sad pics those and so small birds to.

Oh that was only one of about 20 patches all of a similar size and many smaller groups huddled round the bases of young hazel it was actually quite strange seeing so much of one plant that I'd never herd of:hehe:although I have seen the less common Ivy Broomrape (Orobanche hederae)in Pelham...
