This is Speckled Jim, an exceptionally well-nourished baby herring gull who visits our garden every day to squeak piteously until food is put on the bird table. His parents, Gulliver and Gullible, sometimes get there first, which is probably just as well, as he will soon be too fat to fly! (Perhaps I should change MY name to 'Gullible.')
I'd love to see some of your garden birds and animals.
: What has been your most wasted purchased made in preparation for a holiday?
My dad spent 40 years mastering his craft, and last week someone half his age told him how to eat.😠
