I dont know.

The other half of my owl story is ..... After awhile of staring my human side got the better of me so I goes to get my phone to film it . When I gets back to my window the owl drops a big shit , looks at me then flies off.

Owl - 1
Human - 0.

Nature always wins, mate.

The film is the original Blade Runner.

Well good luck with that mate as I think I know how it's going to end.

Haha..

I remember when I was doing my counselling diploma. We had to do a couple residential weekends away over at Burton Manor, near Neston on the Wirral/Cheshire border. A beautiful mansion once owned by William Gladstone.

Anyway, one night we all sat in a circle around this absolutely amazing, massive tree. You know, so old it had seen such a lot of history go on around it. It was lovely, and lots of tree-hugging took place. as you said, it sort of connects you with something bigger than yourself and your own life struggles, and yes, you learn to not give a crap about what others think of you too.

So true . The sooner we realise ' We Are It ' or Iam That ' the better.

Getting a bit Shiva and Non Dualistic a bit here but....

It quite often is them around the park.

There's a big villa on the corner of Ullet Road and Croxteth Gate, and they've been filming in there for days now. They only packed up and left yesterday (Wednesday) morning.

The TV people use that all the time. I know Foyle's War used it too.

It was lovely in there today. We were in feeding the birds and squirrels. I had a Robin take seeds from my hand. Lots of Parakeets, Nuthatches, assorted Tits and a Heron on the edge of the wood hunting rats in the undergrowth.

Met lots of nice dogs and puppies too.

Some wonderful colours as the leaves are changing.

Whilst I've seen heron's around canals I've never seen them rummaging in the bushes for a snack. Makes sense I suppose a rat is probably as nutritious as a fish.

I haven't been to Sfton this year but I've spent a fair bit of time wandering around Clarke Gardens and Allerton Towers when I've been over to see my mum. Liverpool is blessed with some great open spaces.

I was quite surprised at the Heron myself, but I've seen it twice in the same place in our last two visits. It's a little wooded area just behind the Palm House, so well away from the watercourses. It stands just where the cut grass meets the scrub. We were only around 10 feet from it. There are lots of rodents there due to the abundance of food. I know Herons will eat frogs and ducklings too, so a rat is probably on the menu too. It must be having success there because it keeps coming back.

Talking about gardens and open space. We went to Ness Gardens the other week. That's a lovely place. Pity I was eaten by mozzies though.

Crikey! Could see it flapping about in his neck!

Had a parakeet literally per through my window earlier, took a look at me and flew off again. Got a flock of them on my street at the moment, in and out of trees and the flapping around our brickwork constantly.

That's amazing.
That Heron must have a gullet made of iron. How long would it be before it stops wriggling around
How does it even begin to metabolise a whole squirrel?

sadly the squirrel - or any animal it swallows - will succumb to suffocation as there is no oxygen for it to breath

then - it doesn't get any better - the slow digestion of the animals body but at least it's dead

not something to show the children at half-term

if you find these things fascinating then go on youtube and search for pelicans eating pigeons - if you don't like feral pigeons then you'll enjoy it

Two low-lifes with dickhead-dogs running free. The dogs attack another being walked and, whilst the owner tries to stop the two 'large bulldogs' attacking his dog, the two scumbags attack the man.

Plenty of witnesses, and the article says the two dogs and their owners are regulars in the park, but seems no arrests have been made.

Hopefully the owners will be put down alongside their dogs.

I hate scum like this.

I read that on the Echo website recently. There are some horrible little scumbags who walk their penis extensions off the lead in the park and I've seen some attacks myself. One of our dogs was almost killed by bull breed mut that made a beeline for him straight after being let off the lead. My partner was walking him and I saw the whole thing from our window.

I went out with a hammer and was going to take out the fella, his dog and smash his BMW up too, but it turned out the fella was distraught, as was his girlfriend. They'd only just got the dog as a rescue and it was his first time out in the park. Our dog was lying in the grass and we thought he was dead. I carried him home and somehow he revived and survived with some cuts and a ripped ear. He was amazingly tough. The other dog owner offered to pay for any vets bills etc and, to his credit, was a genuinely decent guy.

Some who frequent the park are utter gobshites though, but they think they're cool with their poorly reared and poorly socialised land sharks. Hopefully these two morons get nicked. There are two CCTV camera masts monitoring the area by the cafe, so I imagine the police will be able to pick them out from the footage. I do hope so.

or do the police only do that to women holding vigils for other murdered women
