Oh Baaaaaad Butu! Norty!! I am not sure I want to meet him in April any more.

I'm using the new size setting on Flickr I used on Photobucket but still looks like the small one. I'll have to investigate.

Some typical British countryside in Redbourn, actually an entrance to a waterworks but you can't see it from here. Ignore the ghost in the corner, it comes out when it's a sunny day but is quite harmless.

This squirrel gave us a real telling off yesterday when he thought Precious was going to climb his utility pole, and then to make matters worse, his tree!

More squirrels

Today Maynooth, coolcat90 and I went to Cottesloe Beach to see the "Sculpture by the Sea" exhibition. It's an annual event which started in 2005 and, along with the Bondi Beach exhibition, the largest outdoor exhibition of sculpture in Australia.

Some of the pieces were wonderful and others...well...let's just say, to each his own. I neither liked nor disliked this piece, but I thought it made a great frame for the Cottesloe groyne and three ships out to sea.

A couple of Melbourne Zoo's gorillas.

All the pictures are lovely so far! I need to start taking more! Though I do still have many on my Photobucket I could upload here.

This is for Spanishliz



The entrance to the town of Mojacar.

A wonderful mix of photos from everyone this month, I really enjoy the variety.



It's another heron photo from me.

Thank you so much! Brought a big smile to my face when I opened this page just now, it is such a familiar sight to me

The Captain Cain statue outside the old landing services building. Captain Cain was one of the prominent inhabitants of early Timaru. Before the breakwater was built the ships arriving anchored offshore and landing services businesses were set up to assist the unloading and bringing ashore. Sitting next to him is my travelling kiwi that went to the USA and Europe with me.

The French-Atlantic coast at Les Landes.

A view of St Albans cathedral

Great pics! The heron is stunning, Trev and so is yours flopsy.

Here is a yabbie (freshwater crayfish). We catch them in our ground tanks and will be having a big feed of them tonight.

Surprise visitor for the night sprung on us about 8.00pm Mollie. Even more of a surprise she seems to have run out of energy at last.

Copago, your crayfish are much bigger than ours. That one looks like it'd make a nice meal, most of ours are no longer than one of its claws.

Mollie is so cute!

A vintage car I saw in the morning.

More sculptures by the sea.

A nice row of houses in the middle of Surrey near Woking

Anyone for rats?
My friend's late lamented Teddy and Raoul....

Oh, they're cute! I don't mind rodents - I used to have pet mice when I was a child. I wanted a rat but my mother wouldn't let me. Actually, given how extremely house-proud my mother was, I'm now amazed she let me have the mice.

A Fly Went By.......

We're having a mouse plague at the moment ... I'm not a fan of them.

haha cool, Auntie! Great detail.

Here's the yabbies all cooked up and ready to eat
