Copago Moderator Registered: Tue May 15 2001 Posts: 14384 Loc: Australia	We pick ours up in town but the postie does deliver - I'm not sure why we don't get deliveries, it was set up that way before I got here so it's stuck that way. For us it's more of a marker so people know where to turn off to get to our place and for people to drop stuff off if they're passing. Oh a the lizard a couple days ago - a couple asked how big he was, with the tail wihich is probably half of him he was about 2 foot long. Called a sand goanna and he was about as big as they get.

Gila woodpeckers usually make the nests and then abandon them the following year, leaving them for other native species like Cactus Wrens or Purple Martins. Unfortunately, the intruder starlings have been very effective at pushing those species aside.

PDAZ, that starling in the cactus is so neat!

Copago Moderator Registered: Tue May 15 2001 Posts: 14384 Loc: Australia	I've been thinking of an idea lately, sort of like a treasure hunt. Someone posts a photo request and who ever can post that request then gets to request the next shot. ANd they'd be things that would have to be taken there and then, no going through your archives. So a newspaper with todays date, or a book open at page 395, a soft drink can upside down, picture of the computer at a specific website .. that sort of thing. Would it work? ANyway, here's my offering for today - yesterdays' eggs ready to be collected.

satguru Forum Champion Registered: Thu Feb 17 2000 Posts: 8090 Loc: Kingsbury London UK	There was one of those old Citroen vans over the road from me till recently and knowing them it was probably made well into the 60s as they kept their models for decades, something firms could learn from today.

Wow, the water is wild !! awesome. Beautiful flowers, and penguin. SM, your butterfly is known by many different names from what I can see on a search: White Tree Nymph, Paper Kite, Rice Paper Butterfly, Idea Leuconoe to name a few. I've known it as White Tree Nymph. Thanks for all the wonderful photos this month, it's been fantastic to see them all. _________________________ "a kind deed is useless, unless it is done with love."
