Pink feet geese high in the sky announcing their arrival. Wood pigeons are throatilly humming their contented coo and Bob Robin looking scruffy after the moult,is cheekily helping himself to the dog's grub.

Insects of various kinds are mobbing the various insects friendly flowers we planted for them.

Just for a few hours at least, all is right with the world

Thanks mate. Those pics have my adrenalin going. 

I used to do a lot of goose shooting. Once took out 9 pinks with two shots.

I love to hear and watch them now. As soon as the shooting  season ends, they immediately become much more tame and easy to observe. Don't ask me how they know, but they absolutely do.

I have been up every morning since I got here before dawn just to listen to hundreds heading south,and walked an estuary yesterday listening and watching fish jump and torpedo through shallows,I appreciate the little things in life.

I saw something on a tv program about how the salmon in Alaska Canada...are responsible for fertilising the hole country....at first I thought f**k off...then you think of all the species that eat them drop bits of them away from the rivers...or of course shit there nutrients out all over the place...interesting stuff
