Bliss Today Is.....

[gness]

....a bird I can't identify....but I will! If I have to spend all evening drinking local wine and googling birds I will find it.......

Your bliss today?......x

My 'bird' bliss was yesterday when six Brent geese flew over my garden making that wonderful noise that they do...

Using this guide should leave you with more time to drink the vino!

looking at pictures of Vermont in the Fall and wishing I had moved up there instead of further south....

I recently saw a kingfisher for the first time recently a delightful experience!

[gness]

It's a beautiful sound, Cupid......were they in a V?....x

Chris....I have looked everywhere....even bought a local bird thingy in a foreign language on the way home.....this bird fits nowhere.....and I'm not too bad with birds.....
If it's new do you think they'll name it after me?.....What would it be?...x

Love Vermont, DT.....will open those when my connection isn't foreign flakey...xx

Not having to bale any water out of the car after arriving home from work earlier, had to go through several floods on my way home. Terrific downpours just before I finished work.

Preparing for another birdwatching trip tomorrow.
Phasianus colchicus and alectoris rufa....

[gness]

Will tell you my varnish tale soon, Minty.....this is a bit hit and miss.....

Gav.....some time ago I hired a canal boat for a day to treat friends who had helped me during MrG's illness......we had five Kingfishers flying by the side of the boat for about twenty minutes.....wonderful sight....x

[shoota]

I had a Kingfisher on my landing net last time I was fishing. Got pictures of him coming out of the water with a tiddler but they aren't much good as I didn't have a long lens with me.

[gness]

So I gather, Tony......water barrels full though.....:-)

Leaving the guns at home, Shoota?...x

[tonyav]

Overflowing for a guess, gness.

[shoota]

Leaving most of the guns at home G.

Bliss is lovely hot sunny day, sitting on a beach drinking rum punch!!

[Elina]

Hi Gness x
A nice long walk with brother ... & I took a pic of leaves that had fallen on the ground ... all different autumn colours that I've made in to my wallpaper on my phone.

[gness]

Most isn't good enough, Shoota.....just take a flask and bins.....and a biccy....x

Hope mine are when I get home, Tony.....keep seeing ideas for my garden....which should be finished but I feel changes coming on.....

Hi, Sharon....rum punch is fine with me....not sitting on the beach...but if you come into the woods we'll share?....:-)

[tonyav]

Would these new garden ideas involve water features, gness.

[cupid04]

Yes the Brent Geese were in 'V'.
You can see them in their hundreds and thousands if I remember to get the tides right at Southend, Leigh-on-sea, Chalkwell etc.

[Gavmacp]

Gness,
I see 1 you see 5. I have heard of one upmanship but this is just going too far!!
I hope you are having a lovely time!

[melv16]

Give us a description of the bird, gness.
