We had several discussions today in the same vein Lis. The whole ecosystem works in balance. We upset that balance everywhere we go on this planet. The only good thing we came up with in our discussions is that once we destroy ourselves, Nature will come back and have the place to herself again for a while.
In the main entrance to the Hall, the Swallows were busy feeding their 5 chicks.

With the sun it must be spectacular. If you did not have such an awful climate, I'd come and say hello next time we hit the UK (Which might be never, even if my english friend wants us to come ASAP)

Re: Pink & Lime-Green Elephants
Love the swallows feeding - the twig thing was cute too... REALLY like the moth.
Are you in North or South Wales Dewi? (of course if I looked to see where the Dwyfor River was I'd have a clue)
Changing the topic completely - Just booked my flight from Orlando to LGW for next March. Will spend 2 weeks traveling around visiting all friends/family and then make my way to Moggie's for a month. Haven't booked that portion of the trip yet - need to save up my pennies. -O I got a deal from here to Gatwick, still hoping for a deal from LHR to J'burg.

Re: Pink & Lime-Green Elephants
I was wondering about the strange coloured ellie,
when I read about it in the Boma...
Now that I found the solution all I can say is
Never seen something like that before...
And yes, Wales sure is green!

God put me on earth to accomplish a certain amount of things. Right now I'm so far behind that I'll never die.

With all the rain they get, it could not be different. If you could raise the temperature some 20/25° it could develop into a new rain forest, Amazzonia type
