Positively puritanical!
Hunting cannot be considered a sport as all contestants in a sport should know they are playing the game!
Re: Backyard wildlife
The weekend was probably the last time I'll be taking pictures in my garden until the winter is over. There were still some bees around but nothing much else except some moths.
The camera will not be hibernating yet as I'll be in the Kruger for the next two weeks

Re: Backyard wildlife
I had a surprise on Monday when I arrived at work. The resident Geese have had another gaggle; seven little goslings this time and they are very protective of them. I've since seen them chasing several people around, honking madly. My colleague thought they looked like two battleships with a destroyer escort.
I finally remembered to take my camera on Thursday.
I got a little bit too close - sort of accidentally on purpose and dad came for me. Even though I was ready for him, he still scared the c**p out of me.
Having seen me off, he swaggered back to his brood.
