Hello Marion, I'm relatively new to WAB aswell. I'm sure you will find this site as inspirational as I have. I primarily logged on to this site for the purposes of developing my bird photography. However, after being inspired by the forums and galleries, I am now developing my interests in other areas, such as: wildflowers and insects. I hope you enjoy WAB and welcome, thanks, Mark. |

Hi Marion, so glad you have decided to join us here WAB. It really is such a friendly and informative site. I joined five months ago and only wanted a few ID's and have hardly been away from the place since  . Feeding the birds in the garden does give so much pleasure especially this time of year when they bring their chicks along - magical Welcome to you and all your pets and I hope you will enjoy it here as much as I do. |

thank you for all your replies ....yes the animals are hard work but luckily my daughter does most of the cleaning out etc ....the bunnies are a bit depressed at the moment as they are used to having the run off half the garden all day long ...but its a bit on the damp side for them as they are a bit on the old side ...and even tho they have a variety of shelters (,with blankets and towels) to go in ...they will sit on the path in the rain and get soaked  ...also the dogs keep waiting for me to put their duvet outside .... as duvet equals... sunbathing .....so instead curled up together watching me ...tucked up in a blanket !....but have to say all my frog and toadpoles seem very happy  marion |

Hi Marion,
I am new to the forum too and have also been delighted with the friendliness of all the responses. Isn't it great to be able to learn from each other in such an inspirational and interesting way? I am almost converted to believing computers are O.K. (instead of the biggest source of stress since flat-pack furniture...)!!
All the best,
Rachel | |
