Hello Lapwing and welcome.

Hi Lapwing. Nice name & a lovely bird. I've seen a few small migrating flocks here in the past couple of week searching the warmer climes.

Hello, good afternoon and wellcome

Wecome Lapwing there is plenty of tea, coffee and the hard stuff available, mainly in soop's kitchen.

Hello Lapwing , welcome.

Thank you for the lovely welcome and the flowers - I hope to meet you all in soop's kitchen sometime - some of the hard stuff would be nice on a cold winters day!!

Definitely not brilliant Galen and as for housework kittylester it gets done when there is nothing better on offer.

rosequartz and ffinnochio lapwings are my favourite birds and there is a field near me where they gather on a regular basis - they really are such attractive birds.

You are always welcome in Granddads shed, all we ask is that you bring some home baked , we can supply the .

We discuss all sorts of stuff and are interested in bird watching.

Hello, Lapwing, Hilda and Geraldine! Lovely when new members introduce themselves. Welcome - enjoy GN as much as I do. I honestly can't imagine life without it.

Hello Lapwing You are lucky to have lapwings around, I haven't seen more than one or two for years now. We do have quite a lot of Buzzards and Red Kites though.

I love Lapwings, one of my favourite birds. We get lots of them around here, but once in Kent I saw a vast watermeadow smothered in them.

hello and welcome from me too, Lapwing. We have lapwings come every winter to our harbour - a wonderful sight.
Be prepared to have a new addiction now you have discovered Gransnet. Lots to browse and join in whenever you fancy.

Welcome Lapwing, great user name

Being a bit of an amateur twitcher, I love your name, lapwing. I'm a sort of a bird myself.
A warm welcome to Gransnet.
