Like Talen says, make sure you update us with some more photos. Now for a confession....<BR/>When I was a young lad me and my mate William used to go to a large wooded area with a small lake in our local town. Being fearless at that young age we used to climb the trees in search of birds nests and their eggs. Occasionally we would steal an egg or two and take them home in the hope of hatching the precious things. It never ever worked and I have always felt a little guilty about that, but boys will be boys.

Little surprises like this make your day. <BR/><BR/>A while back we had driven out of our house and about 1klm down teh road when I noticed a frog on teh bonnet of the car. I pulled over and put him in a plastic cup I had in the car.<BR/><BR/>After returning home I placed him in a tree in the garden. I have since seen him 3 or 4 times. Two more times on the car again and also in the tree.<BR/><BR/>Hopefully the bird will be a return visitor and lay more eggs.<BR/><BR/>Good pictures my friend.Bruntyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15834787635724207227noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9132162900834611547.post-66065668992170415932009-04-03T22:46:00.000-07:002009-04-03T22:46:00.000-07:00Hi Malcolm and CieJayLooks slike you are the caret...Hi Malcolm and CieJay<BR/><BR/><BR/>Looks slike you are the caretaker of a new family Malcolm.
