    Just got back from our local patch walki with Ruby Roo of course,the brains out of the outfit of course.
    We just beat the heavy rain,very quiet up there and very windy but I was delighted to see 2 buzzing Redpoll. Reminded me of Insh Marshes near Kingussie.:49:

    WISHLIST;
    I'm not a good swimmer, but I'd love to swim with Humpback Whales (my favorite whale);
    See a Blue Whale
    See an Orca
    Watch a Grey Wolf hunt
    Dive with Great White Sharks
    See a Moose (cool animals)
    Go searching for Sasquatch
    See the Loch Ness Monster (it's real folks!)
    Watch a Cheetah hunting
    See a Harpe Eagle
    See a Phillipine Eagle
    See a Steller's Eagle (I do like an Eagle)
    I'd love to be the person responsible for saving the Polar Bear from extinction
    See a Great Mountain Gorilla in the wild
    Swim with a Green Turtle
    I'm not too keen on seals but I'd like to see an Elephant Seal, just to see how big it is
    Save the White Rhino (all Rhino's if I'm being honest)
    String up ALL poachers from the nearest tree, especially Ivory poachers
    Ban all commercial whale and shark fishing
    Shut all Sea World parks
    Release all the Big Cats in captivity
    See a Black Mamba (from a distance)

    That's all I can think of right now good friends. No doubt I'll think of more later on.

    This morning back on my local Beach with Ruby Roo half a dozen Sandwich Terns fished close by and a 2nd year Gannet went past pretty close.Black headed Gulls are returning from their breeding grounds and a huge Great Blacked Gull flew right past me with half a crab in it's mouth,dropped and re caught the tasty morsel while in flight,great skill:biggrin:

    [​IMG]Hi there, neighbor! by A R A, on Flickr
    theres something unsettling about seeing all kinds of bug running away when approached by a (usually alot smaller) ant

    [​IMG]Mantis by A R A, on Flickr
    its not moving for days, always on the same leaf, probably because too young to go exploring?
