After yet another successful year on the Odds & Sods thread, initially started I think by Hazy, it might be wise to kickstart the 2023 thread off.

An early face off on a country lane this morning. Adrenaline rushing on both sides I think one of this years young leverets by the size of the nose..
Aw, that magic Bob ... . The eye is so bright and clear.
Thanks BD :) He or she came within 10ft on the lane and just sat in front of me. Not quite got that flight down pat I think, that and the size of the nose makes me think a youngster
I found a Ladybird yesterday while gardening. I put it on a piece of paper on the worktop, with a plan to try and get a picture of it taking off. First off it laid a sherbert lemon. Then a second. Then a third, but it ate that one. Then it flew away. Kept me entertained for a while ...
