Oi Rene have you got them all lined up for this spot? Got a friend named Noah? unbelieveable stuff, I reckon the next is a Dodo.
You can't loose with this one, bloody marvellous.

Wow, wow...what a trip. Super shot

Lovely shot.

Is it taken on a bird-bath made to look like a rock pool?

I think I'll make one of those this weekend.

I'll get some great Chaffinch shots maybe.

Regards
