We get one every winter here as well, Callistemon and I gather it's the female who hunts small garden birds.
It's all part of the cycle, but hard to watch.
Perhaps yours was a male?
That must be frustrating for you farview 
I'm having tech problems too, so I cant post either!!
Greyduster did you ever see the documentary where the sparrow hawk had a camera attached which filmed as he darted here and there through the woods?
Ellianne magical misty photo. Keep up the good work ?
Has your Google logo today got a little robin stringing pretty lights through the letters and switching them on?
Let's have a few days of lights to brighten things up!
I hope those of you who are unable to post your photos can get yo the bottom of the problem.
Here's a lit up shop window.
New little Christmas deco

Hello! There seem to be a few on the thread who are having trouble uploading pics. Please email us if that's you, so we can take a look. If you can give us as much info as possible (your browser - Chrome, Internet Explorer etc) and your device (laptop/iPad/phone) etc that would be helpful. Also, if you could explain in detail (in the email, not here) what happens when you try upload that would be great. Hopefully we can get it sorted for you! Thanks 
Love the Christmassy ones.

My birthday is in November and one of my presents had a beautiful bow on it that I used for the Advent decoration on my front door. The picture is not brilliant because I had to take it in daylight. It has fairy lights on ot, so in keeping with the theme of "lights"
DH bought this just after last Christmas, to go with one we already have. I would have paid the shop not to sell it to him, but he and GS love them! Now all I have to do is stop him going out and buying any more!
Be very careful greyd - they breed ?.
How can you not love them greyd? I’m shocked

Perhaps “How do I love thee? Let me count the ways....” would help, gduster” - apply to the Christmas items or Mr Duster whichever you think will work best!
