    Gosh, yes. Let's blame wildlife. ;)

    on Chicken-sitting
    Careful… The diminishing number of chickens will be blamed on the red kites.

    I'm no expert on photography, or indeed birds, but I enjoy your daily photos so I'd say yes to trying again, assuming it's not a significant entry fee.

    on What was this artificial island used for?
    Thanks Elizabeth. I didn't realise it was that recent. It's a beautiful spot.

    That's so kind of you Morna. I'll be here enjoying the natural world and posting about it, don't worry. It's exactly what I did as a 12-year-old with pencil crayons and blue biro, except technology...
