Another time, another place :-

An invitation to a local golf club -

but did remember to bring @20 Tree Spug boxes ;-)

A dozen passage Wheateaters, Dabchick pr with 3 young etc

Hopefully a superb Spug suburb to come, sev birds in area....


Later, we went to shut a stable door after a horse had already bolted . . . .


sickened time lucky
