Alan, hope to see more of you on here. Think you will find it fascinating ... I am certainly 'hooked' : )

Viv, I've put some photos on Flickr but I'll try and put some on here soon. I visited this site after I saw it mentioned on a nature forum - I really haven't sussed what it's all about yet.

Thanks for correcting my ident Alan Thornhill. I'm a complete amateur but enjoy finding and recording the wildlife wherever I am. If you come across any other incorrect i.d's in my photo's I would appreciate the corrections. Where are your 'Spottings'?? : )

Viv, this appeared on my screen as a thumbnail so I opened it up. I enjoyed looking at your other photos too.
