Look at those eyes, Jiffster ... they do have an "out of its mind" quality about them

 

Farmer in Wales got jailed, after his collie dog wouldn't round up sheep, collie no more

 

Ive been bit by them before they can be nasty, one day i went to a farm to seek metal detecting permission and 6 run at me and one took a bite, when the farmer come round the corner all he saw was me standing there with a stick and started having a go at me, hold on a minute ones just took a lump out of my leg anyhow i got permission.

 

Collies are sneaky. They go past you and when your not looking they turn around and have a go at your lower leg.
Or worse if your walking a small dog they will have a right sneaky go at your dog

 

Here's link to it,

Don't look as it shows pictures for dead dog

A more pleasant little dog today

 

We only saw two Red Squirrels on Brownsea Island today.

 

The squirrel in the first shot looks pregnant @strongylodon ?

 

Looks like it @Sheal, first brood could be in May and possibly another in mid summer.

 

Many of you have seen my posts about a mystery animal that is raiding one of my bird feeders at night. I thought it best to transfer my posts here to the Land/Water Wildlife thread from the 'What's Buzzing or Flying Near You' thread.

Tonight is my first vigil to see if I can catch this furry, probably four legged friend on camera. I'm sitting here in darkness (it's only just dark) hoping that it will visit sooner rather than later. We'll see if anything turns up!

 

I think if that was my visitor @ARMANDII he'd probably destroy the whole bird table.

Nothing to report from last night. I'll try again later in the week.

 

First (Italian) Wall Lizard I have seen this year, I've no idea who introduced them or why but they seem to be thriving along the Dorset coast.
