  Lovely @nigel16 
  We have a wildlife thread on the forum - so you might want to share your pic on there too. Lots of lovely photos there as well.
  Here's the link

  It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....
  
  
  
  I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...

  She looks podgy round the middle, maybe full of eggs?

  Its amazing where you find newts, the other week we removed some plastic sheeting from the ground and came across loads of teensy tiny newts who were happily living there (All now happily transferred to a safe place)

  Enthusiastic but impatient describes my level of gardening thus far
