I know, we are never satisfied, but a Nature topic without photographs is NBG.

Poppicok I like your photograph.

What lovely pictures! And what lucky GNs to have that wildlife in their gardens.

Poppikok Tue 10-Sept-13 12:25:52

Let's see if it happens here.

Lovely pics,but why does the text keep repeating itself I wonder?

That is very keen of them Maniac - I think it has spread across the nation though - its popping seed pods are very effective, particularly if they pop next to a stream or a river. It's along waterways that it is the worst problem I think.

Oh yes. (to Galen)

JessM Himalayan Balsam is a very invasive weed.In our area we are advised to report spreading growth to some environmental dept. and have it
thoroughly removed.

Jing it's MY SCEPTRE and I am definitely female (I thinkhmm)

JessM Mon 09-Sept-13 17:54:43

Was that red kite shysal ?
I saw some Himalayan Balsam today that had gone "double" Instead of the usual tidy 2 up 2 down pink flower it was a random, tassely untidy one. Seems to be spreading. But after a tedious 20 minutes or so trying to get a decent ID pic of DH earlier (3 cameras before he was happy) I did not take a camera out for the walk!

"His"

to start off with smile

Marvellous clouds over the Papa of Jura...

Need a sceptre though
Her sceptre shows the force of temporal power, wherein doth sit the dread and fear of kings.
Discuss!

Might overawe some of the more belligerent claimants!
Not that I see them in my lounge!

annodomini Sat 07-Sept-13 20:42:32
