Wall to wall sunshine in Brugge and partly sunny on our days in Ghent and Brussels. You take pot luck this time of year and we were lucky.Pip, they were showing an 'interest' in each other.

Been looking on the web of indian butterflies, looks like this is the one it is. Common Rose Pachliopta Arisolochiae

pip i was going to put that, but thought i had better not :D :D :eek:

marley i will re-name my thread now, strange that in 5 years of going to goa it my first i have seen, they must not be a well known breed of kite then.I took this pic about 9 am and there was no one around on the beach

marley what a fantastic story and the pictures are fab, thank you for putting this up, will hope that these beautiful creatures are safe

great shots pip

hi woo thanks for the comments and i am very pleased with my new camera especially having the 12 megapixels certainly brings your subjects a lot closer as these horses were quite a distance away, I wouldnt of got some of these pics with my other cameras

Thanks for making me laugh . You really dont know how difficult that is. You may wish youd never get involved when I disappear into cyber space. Im am trying to alter my email adress to talktalk and gardeners corner doesnt seem to let me do it. So I will say goodbyeeeeeeeeeee and cross over to...

Pip. That should be garlic butter not oil. Yummm yumm,

I dont think ive seen one this early strongylodon. I hope its a sign of spring

Another wicked photo Dave... Brilliant to see.. :D

thanks walnut,these guys just love this elephant, they go around asking people for money when you take pics but i guess it takes a lot of money and care to look after her.

OK ... I have just looked up my bird books and I am now convinced that it is, in fact, a female Now I am on the lookout for a male

1 wood pigeon 1 great tit 1 blackbird 1 parakeet :eek:Although usually where there's one parakeet there are soon a dozen, so I'm rather glad that didn't happen today as I expect the RSPB would think I was taking the mickey.I heard loads of birds, but they were away in someone else's...

I wellied an 8footish length of wood (recycled from a former lawn edge) into the ground, and secured with earth and stones, then screwed hanging basket brackets to the top couple of feet, on all four sides. A little lower, I used a shelf bracket to attach the table my son had made at an RSPB...

No Pete ... I am seeing young birds still about [ 24. January 2008, 09:38 AM: Message edited by: whis4ey ]

Perhaps you could have a go at getting some Long Tailed Tits please...gorgeous little birds aren't they... but I wonder if they would stay still long enough for you to photograph one????? Good luck if you try!!!!!
