Something for @Reptilony

Oli you may find these “artificial rockpools” of interest considering your intended field of study. They’ve been created by ecologists to create habitat on harbour and sea walls.

Thank you for that, that was very interesting, my friend who’s in biology also want’s to have a company dedicated to help wildlife someday. I like these kind of things.

Good mornooning all. It’s a public holiday here in the UK, so we have another day off :)

The sun is currently shining... we will enjoy it while it lasts which won’t be long according to the forecast unfortunately.

JoesDad and I have no plans except to do a few things around the house :)

.... and here I proudly present my first nasty weather song: "Rain in may" . I think this song is very suitable when I look outside and on my calender.:D
Have fun like I had by singing it.


Thank you, Sabine! [emoji173]️ I don’t feel down any more. And O could listen to this all May long! [emoji6]

.... and a second nasty weather song from today.
A very old song ( 1960 ). I love that little funny ( or sad ) song because of the "German`s daughter the singer Bobby Helms sings about.
Many American soldiers had during their time in Germany a "Fraulein", a female friend or wife after the 2. world war was over. This is what the song is about.


Couldn’t listen to this for some reason... Will try again later!

He is a half moon, I didn't want one with that difficult of fins but...he seems like he's really healthy. He was only in the pet shop for at the most 2 days I saw him yesterday. He's been swimming and checking out his tank all day. He doesn't act stressed at all. I'm just hoping I made the tank safe enough for him. It seems like I did but time will tell.

Ah! I didn’t see him there. What a beautiful color!

Good mornooning all.

Yesterday was cold with sudden and very heavy showers... some were sleet ... yuk!

This didn’t dampen enthusiasm for the match which Luton won 3-1 meaning they also won the League having already guaranteed promotion last week.

The council had banners on the town hall

A local charity was giving out celebratory Ferrero Rocher and got plenty of donations in exchange

And (Internet photo cos mine was rubbish) there was a trophy presentation at the end

So you’ve bought Ferreros from a charity? Good choice!

Well done to Luton! :)

I very quickly remembered how bad crickets stink!!! They live outside!! The worms and roaches come in nifty self feeding containers and you never would realize they are there so they just sit on a shelf below... the upside, there will always be fishing bait available[emoji23][emoji23][emoji23]

Lol! That’s what I say every time before I get the next one [emoji16]... I really wanted to go get that redfoot from the pet store and hubby actually finally gave in and told me he didn’t care... I just couldn’t see building another large enclosure. I don’t want to be the one that has more than what I can give a good home to. I still have the two small sulcatas who will need a really big space in a couple years... He did bring me home a group of eggs that were going to get bush hogged last week. I am incubating and will then reintroduce them back to the wild... whatever they may be [emoji16]...(I suspect they are Turkeys)

You might as well keep them till Thanksgiving in that case ;)
Yeah, Sullies will want their space... It was a very beautiful Redfoot though...

Between my son and I, we came up with a name somewhat. I keep thinking of the song blue moon but he also looks like an arrow head when he's swimming. Then he turns into a butterfly. I'm just really glad he settled in so quickly. So far he hasn't gotten any torn fins.
"Blue moon" makes me think of another song. I'd call him Tony. ;)

Good morning, Linda! Enjoy your day, and your sunshine, and please send it over to us as soon as you're done with it.
