Smile Hi


I joined tonight and have had fun reading lots of the messages. I have a wildlife garden - some would call it a wilderness - in the midst of a manicured lawn culture, the local kids probably call my house the witches cottage, but the local wildlife call it haven or heaven
I have thistles taller than me, dragon flies and diving beetles to name but a few. Used to have a regular Sparrow Hawk visitor until the neightbours cut down the trees
Well thats me Pleased to meet you all

I am quite enjoying being a rebel with a cause, and funnily enough the neighnours all seem to enjoy the butterflies etc but don't seem to have worked out yet where they are coming from

This is a message to all you lovely people who have sent me welcome messages.
I don't know how to just add my messages without attaching to one of yours. Took me ages to work this bit out
But thank you all for your greetings - you are all so kind

Re: Hi

Hello Sassywheels

Nice to meet you too .... welcome to WAB.

It sounds like you have your very own nature reserve there amongst the "manicured lawn culture" .... good for you .... keep it up.

Enjoy WAB.

Richard

Big Hi to everyone who has welcomed me tonight, nice to meet you all and read all your messages.
What a lovely site this is.
I have had a very chilled evening reading and chatting, learning some new things.
I keep finding new things to investigate
