Dave that photo of the abandoned building is very evocative - could be an illustration for the Brontes - or a mad scientist...

Hemp Agrimony - haven't seen that for a while - used to have it in my last garden. Good for butterflies.

There's a photo of one of our Border Collies for Max -she is grey and white with pale blue eyes, she's called Chicca(pronounced Keeka!) -is this a pecularity or is a part of the breed like this -her mother is identical.

The first solar panels went on this morning and I took a few other shots of interest including an old grape vine and some grapes (love the shadows on the photo of the grapes, wonderful leaf shape!), an old bell and finally our two cute donkeys for DiG!!:D

A nice range of pics today Dianne! that first one looks more like a monastery than a farm!

Your collie is known as a merle, that's the term for that sort of coat colour, it's a genetic thing, can be blue, red or other colours I think and it affects eye colour as well.

Merle (dog coat) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I first came across one a few years ago up here, it was a red one, very unusual, and I don't know if you remember me posting pics from dog agility trials a few weeks ago, there were quite a few there. I think they are becoming more popular.

Here's a pic from the dog trials of a red merle collie.

Frank, we've got loads of goldfinches in our garden but they just won't stay still long enough to be snapped! Lovely picture.

Yes I have a Fujifilm S8100 with 18x zoom but not been very enthusiastic this last year - here is video I made on it on my wildlife You Tube channel, with the highest amount of views...
It's a good camera but lacking as no zoom when using the video function. :)
