fmueller 8 Report post Posted January 5, 2019 Caryl - Many thanks! Robert - I see you are not only good at bird shots, but macro too! My garden is only one year old. We bought the place in 2014 with a weed patch out the back that was too steep to use. Took everything out and got a fortune worth of soil delivered to terrace the section. Planted last year around Christmas, and now I enjoy watching all kind of creatures moving in. I knew the lizards were back when the kingfishers sat on the power lines again! 1 Caryl reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
