Nice TD. Just to let you know I believe the collective noun is a Charm of Goldfinches.
or.... (in some places) a "troubling" of goldfinches....

incidentally - if you see a number of ducks/geese/swans/coots on a pond, they would be a "knob of waterfowl"

Just listened to Tubular Bells after years & years.

I'm a very happy bunny.

got published in another magazine..

not as famous a production as Granta, this time, and the only fee is a free copy of the magazine - but, hey!

it's the "Active Dartmoor" magazine http://www.dartmoormagazine.co.uk/activedartmoorma.html

a bi-annual production!! 8)

it's a feature on the birds of Dartmoor - and they will be using my lapwing photo...

Tranmere! For just a few seconds in my life I dont totally hate them! Last minute goal wins me £75, banishing the horrid memory of Morecambe doing me out of £75 on Saturday!

I still hate you though, John Aldridge.

It was taken from the car window... the car is often the best bird-hide you can have - they seem oblivious to it sometimes - whereas had i got out it would have buggered off at a rate of knots!! I guess I was about 10-15yds away...

Not made me happy exactly, but am just ordering some more reusable nappies for the twins from a website called 'fill your pants' - the name always makes me smile! (i'm easily amused...)
