    Re Lily and Hope and shooting research bears, please read WRI report today ( http://www.bear.org/  )and if you can't write individual letters to the legislators, at least sign the online petition at 'PROTECT Collared Bears in MN'.

     

     

    Good morning original goldfinch thanks for the link to the petition which I have signed.  Hoping that with the help of so many people they may have some success in protecting radio collared bears.  Dreadful to think as we watch Lily and her family, Ted and Lucky and the other bears that they could be shot.

  • original goldfinch I wonder how long the Solar situation is going to drag on, absolutely appalling.

  • Keep meaning to ask Alan has Lady P's blood pressure gone down.  I wished you sun but can see you still have dull weather and very cold with it. 

     

    So much going on at the moment with all the egg laying activities getting hard to keep up with everything.

     

    DjoanS lovely capture of the barn owl.  Will look at the sight later to see if they have posted anything about that owl.  I think they are hoping that the box will be used again this year.

  • Hello to all not mentioned but must get on and do something towards my holiday at the end of next week.  My OH thinks I am mad starting to sort out what I am going to pack so early but that is the way I like to do it.  Can't be doing with last minute packing as OH does.

     

    No posts from dibnlib or have I missed something and she is away.  Hope she is OK.

     

    Have a good day all and may the sun shine on you.

  • Good afternoon ALICAT so good to see how many people have signed the petition in the UK.  Surely someone will listen.

  • Yeah!! Housework done for the day, or as far as I am concerned.

    Just watched a documentary which I taped the other night on a midwife from a hospitlal in Sutton Coldfield  going out to Liberia - Monrovia the capital - to do a fortnights service and what a change she found. It was really quite humbling as we take maternity care, allbeit technologial, for granted compared with what goes on out there. Very interesting.

    Missed Shiela but hope she has a lovely time in Switzerland/

    Alan - yet more eagle cams - can't keep track.

    AQ - love your Friday smile re exercise. 

    Dianne - what a lovely butterfly pic and do like the one of the condor - they are magnificent birds.

    Not too many of the eagle cams are on at present but took some pics of Djuma game reserve.one way to clean your ears!

  • A family of warthogs and peregrine on the Derby cam.
