Did Santa bring you anything interesting?

[Richard G.]

Just wondering what everyone found under the tree on Christmas morning?

I found a lovely looking book about Derbyshire Brown Hares and a pair of wading boots to help satify my penchant for paddling about in streams and rivers, already tested yesterday in a very frozen River Etherow

I was lucky enough to find a Billingham 335 bag under my tree...wow!

Wildlife wise I have camouflage netting, 2 identical feeders for my feeding experiment and 4 books:

1. Silent Summer - Norman Maclean

2. The Naturalized Animals of Britain and Ireland - christopher Lever

3. The Collins Bird Guide

4. The Butterfly Isles: A Summer in Search of Our Emperors and Admirals - Patrick Barkham

This last one is probably my favourite. I've read a couple of pages and I'm really looking forward to snuggling up next to the fire with this one sometime soon.

Two little whimsies..

A Save-a-Deer whistle to stick to the front of my van (See Deer whistle / accident prevention - The animal alert safety warning device.)

The book "The River and The Road" the journal of a Freshwater Pearl-fisher by Peter James Goodwin

[Kayleigh]

I got a Hi-fi,
an electronic picture frame where it cycles through images I have taken..
A portrait in a frame, drawn for me of my old dog who died a few years ago, that was nice..
Also got lots of nice goodies to eat..
Not really wildlife but I have a bee/insect box waiting to be out up.

I read that recently and really enjoyed it, I hope you do too. It helped that I also saw the queen of spain frits and know some of the people he talks about so it holds some great memories for me.

Amongst other things my 2 favourites were:-

Diamond stud earrings
A multi purpose bird feeding station.

I had (only) one present, a pair of slippers that are a size too big for me and that was from the ex wife

Funny old world but I'm not complaining, I think it's quite funny
