OH's fave site right now is rods 'n' sods, you should check it out if you havn't found it yet.

I will check that out. Great thing about over here, plenty of support for our expensive addiction

although not really the right sort of "support"

I think "new" is pushing it a bit too.

Re: Post The Latest Picture You Have Taken

I have recently inherited a bicylce to get around town and been very jealous of those with baskets on their bike...however they were milk crates! This I have to say was a genius idea and got it sorted on mine

I am a happy (crazy) lady with my milk crate...does anyone else have one too?

True, but it's a lot more accurate than "bald".

I think you'll find that it is an old word meaning white.

Re: Post The Latest Picture You Have Taken

Regardless, Spot the Eagle is definitely a more accurate depiction than "bald eagle" or "white eagle" for a bird that is completely brown apart from a white head imho.

Fair point. I'm no ornithologist, but I'm sure there's someone out there who knows about these sort of things?

Re: Post The Latest Picture You Have Taken

I have issues with my ADHD robin. She started about eight nests on the rafter under our deck, and ended up finishing 2, with another about 1/3 completed.

Strange enough! You cry.

Then the silly bird laid eggs in two of the nests, and now she still cannot decide which clutch to sit on!

The local wild bird experts tell me I have to leave her alone and let nature take its course, and if she is such a dipstick then it is a good thing for the gene pool if neither lot hatches!

Seems a bit Darwinian

I'm so frustrated with her, but at least it is giving me a new focus for a few weeks!

^ I believe cuckoos are supposed to lay their eggs in other birds nests, but I've never heard of this before?....You're sure it's just the one robin there are you?
