yesterday whilst clearing my greenhouse found an old part bag of compost which I thought the ladies would use on the area they dust bath, so duly tipped it on and they all dived in and you could see their delight. As I was walking back up the garden something spooked them & the biggest one lept onto the raised pond wall hit the electric fence and ended up in the middle of the pond she then took off back through the electric fence dont know how and ended up in the middle of the lawn she the protested very loudly for a good while. whilst it could have ended very differently I PMSL and tears were rolling down my face, if I hadnt seen it I wouldnt have believed it. She did get some corn whilst I dried her off

That sounds like a "Wish I'd got my camera" moment, H.M.

why is it that some birds have these adventures and bounce back,but others seem to just keel over,it seems you have a surviver there,and you never seem to have a camera handy when you need one,or i think we would all make a fortune on YBF.

My speckeldy Ruby, stands in the pond in the garden when the weather is hot! I panicked the first time and the time after that and then realised she wasn't in trouble, she just does it, although I do keep a watchful eye, or maybe it's her after the frogs??? Sorry, gone a bit off topic there.
