Hello from Shropshire

Hello... I'm Col, retired a long time ago, best part of life

I'll no doubt be posting a few Photos, of bug birds and butterflies etc, from around the garden and elsewhere.

Look forward to searching the Galleries.

Col

Thanks for the welcome Cazzie & Deerstalker & Ollie

I moved to Newport just over a year ago, after 47 years in East Yorkshire.

Love North Yorkshire (Look after it for me) Couldn't get up there often enough

Will do Col, tho I'm moving East shortly too to the vale of York... sure gonna miss the Dales!!

Well I found plenty of wildlife to photograph in my garden in Telford suprisingly, so no doubt you'll have much to share with us all from Newport

I've moved quite a bit these past few years but just can't get away from WAB - it's the best uk wildlife forum on the net!

Re: Hello from Shropshire

HI Col,
you must be just up the road from me ... so to speak :-). I'm new too, looking f/wd to your pix. Just posted some of our garden which is very full of wildlife - especially Paited Ladies just at the moment, and masses of baby birds of all descriptions.
