Thanks for the comments folks. I wasn't sure if anybody would read this at all anyway, so I did keep images and lyrics to a minimum, at least for me. LOL
Seeing that I also volunteer with the Essex Wildlife Trust on Two Tree Island, I'll get some pictures sorted out and post them here as well. This reserve is even smaller, yet the abundance of wildlife is staggering. Short eared owls, barn owls, badges, foxes, all manner of water fowl and seals and that isn't even thinking about the rodents, I love water voles, insects and so on.
The three of us also decided to start joint walks this summer since all three of us are keen walkers, me being a great fan of coastal walks and living on an island, perfect conditions you might say.
This is a good year, not weather-wise, that is a bad one but the BBC is airing a large number of programs this year in their 'Summer of Wildlife' season, which was hugely advertised during this years Springwatch.
Did anybody get a chance to watch that? For those of you that don't live in the UK, Springwatch is an annual series presenting the arrival of Spring in the UK, which due to our countries orientation on the map does take a fair while making its way from South to North.
The same presenters also do 'Autumnwatch' and 'Winterwatch'. Fantastic programs, especially that up to 40 nest or burrow cams they install and make available as live streams on the BBC website or on the TV's red button channel.
Can't keep from advertising the BBC as you can see. LOL
I'll update this as soon as I have the pictures selected.
