- 6'8" Gentle Giant As I do not have a P.C. this blog and my pictures are done from my friends computer. I thank Tom from 'Wiggers World' for the help he gives with running this and sorting out the posts. I call around with my camera and over a milky coffee we down load my pictures and see which I want to show. I have no idea of the workings of a P.C. but Tom as. Because I don't know my way around the computer let alone the world of blogging, I am sorry to say my visits to your blogs will be few and far between. I sit here with Tom and he points out who is commenting, then shows me their blog. I will with Tom's help respond on my posts and thank you for your time. I just enjoy the chance to show my pictures and marval at the fact that from Tom's P.C. they wing there way all around the world. Thank you for reading this and the interest you have shown. If you want to e-mail me then please do, again with Tom's help I will reply to all. P.P.

All great shots Pete, love the birds nesting as well.
I don't know how much I would pay to get a photograph in my camera of that colorful duck. Lordy what a beauty he is. And the parading geese remind me of the World War II saying about "goose stepping."
Nice photography, Peter.
Pete: These are all very nice photos but that Mandarin Duck picture is certainly beautiful.
Nice photos all--the Mandarins sure are colorful.
I had never before seen even a photo of a Mandarin Duck, much less a pair. I "googled" them and learned through Wikipedia that although there are a reported 1,000 nesting pairs in the U.K., they are not a legally protected species since they are not native. I do hope that common sense and reverence for living creatures will provide enough protection for them to prosper. Or, that they have the instinct to hide, exposing themselves only to a photographer such as yourself.
Thanks for the photos!
Sorry for not visiting lately. Oh I love the photos of the mandarin ducks. They have such beautiful colourful feathers. Dont get to see them here.
What a beautiful duck the one you call the Mandarin. Apparently we don't have anything like that around here. Also like the two geese stepping it off like they are in a hurry to arrive for something. Very nice photos.
what foul photos! kidding, they are wonderful!
