Normally Hazy starts the Christmas thread off, however, it seems she hasn't posted for a short while. So I hope both well Hazel and Mike are well.
Last years thread; Post your Christmas cards here, for those who want to have a look back is HERE.
Hopefully, not to tread on toes by kickstarting this years thread, here's wishing you all a Merry Christmas
The above was a photo of a Christmas display at Baddesley Clinton, a local National Trust, back in December 2018.
Have a good one folks, and keep photographing nature and posting.those photos and reports.

Hi Mike. Your Christmas display reminds me of of one near me a few years back. It was a lovely nativity in a glass case all illuminated. It lasted a few days before the local yobs stole the baby Jesus and replaced him with the bottle of Guinness! Somewhat sacriligeous, but everyone still found it funny ...
Hope you all have a fab Christmas my lovely Forum mates...And Best Wishes for the Year ahead

Merry Christmas everybody, Hope you and yours have a wonderful Christmas and a Happy New Year.
I will be on my own at Christmas. Not that I have no friends or family .... I'm just a miserable old sod! ...
Only kidding me and Billy are going on holiday first to my sister's in Buxton, Derbyshire, then to a nice hotel in the Lakes for a few days ...

Firstly, I just wanted to bob in to wish my long time friends and posters on here a very happy Christmas and hope the new year is a good one for you all. Thanks for doing this years thread Mike; I haven't been on the forum for a while as didn't like the way it was being taken over by recent rantings and ravings and what appears to be wild aspersions without proof of fact or naming the person who is supposedly stalking them; it saddens me to see this once lovely forum which should be dedicated to wildlife and not personal unsubstantiated grievances being constantly aired and negative posts being bumped back up by two as if in private chat room. Anyway, I could not let the year end without wishing my old time buddies all the best for the festive season and let's hope 2023 will be better in every way. For now I'm taking a break until things settle down here but will leave you with a recent photo I took of a Tawny Owl in our local area who you have to imagine is wearing a Santa hat. !!! Take care dear friends - until we meet again ! Hazy XX
