Re: Ballot to find our greenest icon

Yes, that's probably the best natural symbol - the other animals (and large blues) are such local things that they can't symbolise everything. I suppose that bluebell woods are also rather limited but *ought* to be everywhere!

However, it's talking about 'green' icons rather than just 'natural' ones so I've nominated a railway train!
