Good morning, all! This month should see Monty and Glesni making their return (if all goes well!). I must say that SunnyKate2's last post on the January to March thread is well worth investigating!
Our herring gulls are red listed birds. Think about that the next time you hear some flaming idiot calling for a cull of them.
I think that's Dai Dot, Cirrus. I haven't seen Blue 24 before today.

No I didn't but off I go with great enthusiasm, thanks SHERYL!

"Monty loses his dignity on the nest" - hilarious ;-D
EDIT - and touching :-* They dive straight in to damned hard work after a 3,000 mile journey.
Sheryl, that was the sort of thing I might have missed when scrolling thru for "interesting" bits. Thanks so much on behalf of all of us.
Mmmmm MOFFER mmmmm rats! Thanks for putting me straight
Well done SCYLLA - loved the way Monty looked around to see if anyone was looking :)
Thanks for the footage Scylla... it had me giggling! I love the way he was looking around as if to say 'Nope, nothing to see here... '

Ahem! Over-excited? You can join the club cos that is the qualification required - if you are not, you don't care enough ;-)
yes, but Blue 24 has been around before hasn't she? a few days ago. Then she left and we didn't know where she went . Surely I didn't make that up!!!!!
[/quote]Hope you noted that I edited that to 2.20pm Cirrus :)
