Ah .. the vicious enemy of the nut .. well caught Alex.
Alex Glass

Unfortunately I was in the building so the photo was taken from a bit away and through a glass window.

If I had been quicker getting my camera out I would have caught a frontal shot

Grendle the European Eagle Owl


I was told what they were, but can't remember


He's a brave man...
Alex Glass

You're just showing off now Stu.

Fantastic photos      
Stuball

Hmmm..... Swan Vista? hahahaha (OK, I'll get out the gene pool)




As always, clicking induces larger size option!

Love the eagle owl one stu...Bravo
We have a big fecker that lives in the wood next to our house but pretty elusive when the cameras about.
Once seen it knocking a mouse from the path way but again was cameraless.

I went to Queens Park Glass House, and visited the animal room while there.  It had been closed for a long time for health and safety reasons, but is now looking good with the new glass cages.  The staff are very friendly and told me a lot about the animals and how they aquired them.  A great wee afternoon out and nice cafe too

Yes    Will need to take a trip up there if it is open again.  I hate them but the kids love it up there.

The Lazy Hound

No fear of upsetting this one...
Too lazy to even be bothered this is her in her usual position on her cushion on the arm of the couch nearest the door so she can see who is coming in without even getting up.

Oh they have a killing policy after a week or two, so I was told at a charity event last weekend  
zolita1908

Well thats how i ended up with 2 cats.  they told me they would put them down, and as they are sisters, they had to be housed together.   I came out £70 lighter and with 2 cats.

Same with the dog,  he looked so pitiful...and i'm a sucker.  But i love him,,,,even if he farts
