SPRINGWATCH heads up!!!

[Meta menardi]

I have a new quote to take over from old ones like "How come you know so much about Swallows?"

"I love the smell of Tawny Owls".

Strange non interventionist policy.

James M,
Caroline Quentin did the narration to the four shorts “Wolf spider”, “Leopard slug”, “The flower Border”, “The Rock pool”
on Spring-Watch, and very well.

Thanks Gaina and Ron, yes she did them really well I thought.

Regards, Chris

Yes mate in week one.

I think I know where he's coming from .. I love the smell of cats and am always doing the same with mine! Owls might smell a bit different though ...

Without you 'S' fans I wouldn't have got the joke....but really did enjoy the end ones when they came & the Glads were a brilliant touch!!!Most of the country would have been unaware!!!

Yes he did sniff & kiss the owl...maybe that Morrisy bloke should make an album called that.....!
Think my highlight must be Mrs Stoat!Trying not to think too much about all the little eaten creatures!
Also hats off to all the 'Ones that got away to live another day'!

Nice that Bill got a mention for texting Kate in the last one too....Bless him!

I don't even like the Smiths, Russell, but I do remember Morrissey with his glads!

Doh! I just got the Gladioli connection **smacks self on forehead**.

That was lovely when Chris sniffed the owl. I must admit there was one tawny at the place where I did my falconry course and he was very kissable - he landed on my lap on day and proceeded to flop down, stretch out his wings and sunbathe on my lap! Adorable.
