Augusts enthusiastic nature natterings on the RSPB community gave us quite a conundrum. We were very taken by the determined robin having a tug of war with an equally determined worm in Bex's thread here and Marjus gave us plenty of food for thought with her wasps are beautiful thread here.
In fact the forum was a buzz with great content during August and long may that continue but we ultimately plumped for a thread that we felt enthused others to get out and about to enjoy the countryside and the wildlife that we live alongside, even if we don't always find what we set out to! So join us in congratulating Higgy50 for his Is it a buzzard saga or a badger saga??... thread. Nice one!

Hello All,
Thank you all so much for your kind words they really are appreciated. Apologies that my thanks are late in coming but I have to confess to scratching my head a little before finding where this thread was posted!.....if it hadn't of been for Tom's email and the kind words of everyone then I'd still be at that badgers set unaware of my new found fame!!....
I am of course surprised and totally flattered as I just scribble about my madcap trips and predictable failures in the hope that you will all find it amusing and enjoy a laugh at my expense! If I have been successful in making a few of you smile then my job is done as I always say!
Echoing the comments above there have been so many super threads recently making this award a little more special to receive in amongst the added competition!
As posted on my fore-mentioned 'saga' thread that damn buzzard flew past the kitchen window a couple of Sundays ago whilst I was quite happily chatting away to my daughter!!...I couldn't believe it as it was about three feet away from me and I'm sure he winked as he went past!!..GRRRRRR!....
I'm sure that the saga doesn't end here!!....
Once again a massive thanks to you all
Cheers
Higgy
