You are a clever girl :)We have a heronry in the wood behind us, but I've never managed to take photos of them when they are flying over the house...and when one comes to gorge himself on the frogs, toads and newts from the ponds, I'm ususally out there flpaaing my arms like a daftie trying to get him to leave some for me to admire! I do love them though...A wildlife gardenerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08261817184002496844noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33215622.post-36616480484668389082007-07-23T01:55:00.000+01:002007-07-23T01:55:00.000+01:00Nettles!
