WOW, nan! Again nice activity at your pond! You must have enjoyed yourself tremendously. :-0

Love the pochards swimming together - great capture! ^Q^ The submarine one is hilarious! lol

And why is the grey wagtail not called yellow-vented wagtail?! :twisted: lol lol lol


God put me on earth to accomplish a certain amount of things. Right now I'm so far behind that I'll never die.
