Mountain biking up in the mountains I often run into folks hunting mushrooms, bugs or various plants. Sometimes fire wood gatherers but never logs on this scale. I looked for elephant tracks as that might be the only way to get these bolts out of the ravines in this area, but no dice.

@Jake.....Fantastic photos you shared with us there mate.

Those Aylesbury ducks are fine looking birds,send me the address when you have time please.

@Jotham....Wonderful photo,what a way to start the day.

@sabian.....A warm welcome to this thread and thank you very much for taking the time to show us your great looking birds.

Do the black Gayuga's have a beautiful green tint to their feathers when they are in the sun?

Also a big thank you to everyone else for sharing their photo,a real viewing pleasure

We'd better move on....

I can't tell you at this stage because I'm uploading through Google+ photo's which gives a couple of options.I pick the one " Image size - best suited for web sharing "

but doesn't give the size.I will follow it through and find out then let you know if I have any luck.

Looks like it is " 2048 X 1364 ".

Better read here!

2048 x1364 will blow pics off the page~

1024 x XXX is a better maximum size 800 x XXX OK, 640 x 480 would be OK too.

Although Google plus, does not give that option... so use "best for web size" ... or just don't use the Google plus option, just plan Google with Picasa, is what I use..

Welcome back, David48.

I think old wise one wants to buy this nice shoulder bag, .... but cannot decide on the colours or pattern !

These fields never saw a machine until last year. Sure saves a lot of aching backs!

[Goompa]

I would like to take the opportunity to thank everyone on the ^ WONDERFUL PHOTO THREADS ^ on for you collective acceptance of me Goompa .

Sometimes it is a rough ride in our personal lives to effectively post and view the remarkable images we all see here , but I feel as I have grown to be a part of this Community .

A tad wee bit hard to name everyone involved , but Thank you All very kindly . I enjoy everyday with the thought of knowing there is a new post to view .

My hat goes off to Shaggy though , and this is not code for something else either , Thanks for bringing me onboard mate and all you help DAL....

JUST DONT KNOCK ME UP IN THE MORNING !

The photo below is family and friends working together.....which kinda represents my feelings towards you good folk and this thread.

What's going to be the fate of the mice (??) in that cage shaggy? Surely it isn't the Hunger Games for them?

I'll second Shaggy's comments, it's been a pleasure to see all your sterling work, as a lurker and a bit part poster

I'll actually have some photos to contribute later this year, as I'll be in SE Asia with business initially, then tourist mode, planning to go to Bangkok, Hua Hin and then Ooop North - or wherever my feet carry me

Hope you've already eaten scunner,......maybe this photo will answer your question?

They are actually field rats,quite tasty in fact but a bit fiddly to eat.

Look forward to seeing your photos
