    Hello all. I live in the South East of England. We have a town house so only minimal garden which is all patio'd. Therefore plants amount to just flowers and shrubs in pots. We do have a fair amount of garden wildlife visitors including many birds, squirrels, foxes and badgers. I am a keen amateur photographer and hope to post pictures of a wide variety of subjects from plants on my patio to my local wildlife, parks and gardens in my home city to holiday pictures. I was introduced to the site by a friend in Canada and look forward to being an active contributor.:)

    Yes Islandlife, she is very real. My foxy friends look their best in the spring time before the new cubs arrive. Right now they are all looking rather shabby after rearing the new cubs and going into full moult.
    Thanks for the welcome.:like:

    @Raddang - I wondered and thought it might be from a real photo. Way cool - so Mom and Dad have reared the young 'uns this year already?

    RD-so glad you joined this wonderful group. Ah Kent--I love watching all the BBC movies and series. Some of my favorites are--Sense and Sensibility, Pride and Prejudice, Emma, and of course, Downton Abbey. I also look forward to seeing some pic's of your wildlife and adventures.
