THIS THREAD IS NOW DISCONTINUED, please add to the new 2020 thread HERE
Often we don't have enough photos to create a full thread so thought I'd start an Odds & Sods thread where you may want to add a pic or two when you don't have enough for their own thread . Feel free to add your rogues gallery here !
I only had a couple of pics today, one a Treecreeper and the other a very hacked off looking Great Egret huddled against the reeds trying to keep warm !
A couple from Arne today
The web itself was about 9 inches across, and the trees the support strands were attached to were about 6 feet apart!
Distant and cropped Curlew
And even more distant and cropped.... oystercatcher?
A Grey Heron from a wet, grey morning .
To illustrate my point, a short sound clip recorded on my phone not long after the photo of the Heron was taken.
When I let Mrs A hear it and she merely looked at me with a look of bewilderment mingled with a feeling of sorrow. She then showed the slightest raising of an eyebrow, but said nothing.!!
I don't care, I like this sort of thing.!! :-)

LOL Paul, I'm with Mrs A on this one - thought it was a goods train passing by at first ! I feel we are having it not too bad down here in Cheshire compared to that weather. Btw, you could have at least done a Gene Kelly impression and sang to accompany the sound of the rain !
