    As soon as I in from work knackered last summer, my missus, without even looking up, said, 'Can you get the dead jay out of the paddling pool?'

    At least it wasn't Michael Barrymore asking you to get the dead gay out of the pool.
    Just spat out my coffee

    Nah, we could organize a bird-spotting day out on a train somewhere.
    Two for the price of one :-)

  • Is it a Dartford Warbler?

    Or a Gravesend Guzzler?
    I went out with her in my younger days

    I do like a Robin, but definitely prefer Tits.

    Tits like coconuts...




    ... and robins prefer insects.

    Not a bird but had three of these round our fuchsia at the weekend. About 8cms long, the Elephant Hawk Moth caterpillar.

    That's a cracking photo @LargeAddick - caterpillars have always fascinated me since I was a child and I remember seeing warning signs at the beach about the furry one that can hurt you!

    Quite possibly one of the most overlooked but diverse little critters that we take for granted IMO.
