Greetings

I'm not a fan of introduction threads so I'll keep it brief so as to not bore!

I'm not sure what to say really...I found the forum whilst Googling for butterflies (sounds almost wrong) and it looked friendly and informative. I live in London, so hardly the great outdoors, yet I still find plenty of opportunities to appreciate nature.

Anyway....hi.

Hi Persephone

Welcome to WAB. An interest in nature is all you need to really enjoy the friendliest wildlife site. Incidently London also has some great wildlife.

Re: Greetings

Hi Persephone.

That was a great introduction. Not everyone takes the time to introduce themselves properly and it sure is handy also to know how you came by the site.

It would be most useful if every member provided that type of information.

Welcome onboard

Andrew

Welcome to WAB.

London has some good wildlife sites if you know where to look .... which I am sure you do.

Enjoy the forums and gallery.

Thanks to everyone for their welcomes.

Yes, there is some amazing wildlife in the big smoke. I'm near Romford now so there's even more on my doorstep (Hainault, Epping etc).

Welcome to WAB Persephone.

Incedentally there have been a book or two released recently about London's wildlife, might be worth a look to help find those less known havens.
