    Sitting watching the birds feed early this morning I saw a sparrow with what I thought was a crane fly, it messed about with it for a bit then flew off, all it had done was taken off the wings and a leg it was still alive, something must have took a fancy to it because the next time I looked it had gone, I took a photo and had a look on the net so I'm thinking mayfly? I wouldn't have thought they would be around my garden. 20200530_090717.jpg

      Hello @mazambo

      When you open one of your Threads do you see 'Thread Tools' at the very top of the Thread, above the First Post?

      Hover over the words and you should have the option to Edit the Thread Title.

      I have used this option a few times and it always works for me.

      I hope the above is useful.

      Kevin
