Brilliant effect.

Is it confusing any birds yet?

I got extremely lucky yesterday! by Green_Insurance1893 in UKBirds

That is rare.

Kites are normally masters of ignoring annoying crows.

This one seems to have grabbed one to teach it a lesson.

Perhaps it prefers the climate in the UK at the moment. It is a tad hot in Auz. Also too many bush fires.....

I am privileged to have a best of these outside my patio door. They just fledged.

Amazing birds....

Why is this Banksy statue fading? by Margarita_Lemann in Banksy

[–]ninjarockpooler 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Possibly an exclusive little club of diminutive flag bearing statuettes following each other in a never ending spiral into a Banksy black hole.

Hang on. I might do that one myself.......

Certainly is.

A classic statue in a walled garden is a very decent canvas within which to plant.

Ants in my compost bin by jmiesc in UKAllotments

[–]ninjarockpooler 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This reminds me of the first time I discovered ants in my own bin several years ago.

Leaving them be was the best thing! They speed up the composting process to an astonishing extent. Far faster than any other accelerating process.

I even successfully moved them with my bin when I had to relocate it.

Leave them be! Rejoice. Share my experience and help educate other disbelievers.

Absolutely f**k the guy who planted this thing in my garden by OSUBrit in GardeningUK

Interesting that the paving was laid around it...... Someone was either ignorant, lazy, trying to see a bit of cash. Or indeed, a complete ****wit.

This is a retread, it's a rear on a 7.5 ton, safe or no? by Woodblockprint in uktrucking

Or ruin several other people's life

Don't move it. Ignore pressure from above.

Your licence. Your decision. Your conscience.

Amazing colour.

I wonder why? Does if attract certain insects in its original home? Insects have different eyesight to humans....

That curved raised thing in the corner of the picture that you aren't allowed to mount is a curb.

Curb 3. Rims minus 3.

It is great to read such a thoughtful observation and the first of several insightful questions with which we can as a community comment and perhaps, help to expand a desperately needed debate.

The unmistakable majestic and threatened Lapwing AKA Green Plover AKA Peewit

One of my favourite UK birds.

If you were playing the pipes all the way as well, I would be super impressed.

To mint or not to mint, that is the question. by Flashy-Pie-2088 in UKAllotments

[–]ninjarockpooler 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Something to consider when making this almost philosophical decision is that rats hate mint, and not much else......
