Good morning all! I see the topic of storms and lightning is being discussed.
We had our storm already. Hopefully just light rain for awhile.
Ive been seeing a lot of lightning at night though. Hmmmmm

[Linhdan Nguyen]

Yes

Those are so yummy ! My mom use to buy a box of those at the international market !

 

[Momof4]

I've started drinking this stuff instead of the diet dew.
Caffeine isn't supposed to be good for the heart...

How is it? Everyone I try taste like crap!

 

[Momof4]

I had never heard of it, so I Googled it. Very interesting! And quite a long history!
Do you shoot?

Great.
It's funny because coconuts are a dime a dozen here, they are so numerous. But the drink says "Product of Thailand"

 

[ZEROPILOT]

Coconut water is common here in stores.
There's a big Caribbean population here.
It's not unusual to see someone with a truck load of cold, green coconuts, a box of straws and a machete.........Coco Frio.

Have you heard that coconut water makes you pee almost instantly ? Its true for my sister but not for me. So i'm not see how "true" this is

Good evening all. We have had a great day out on the salt marshes of the Camargue.

Lots of flamingoes and lots of other interesting birds too. Probably one of our better visits there.

Ragondin (Coypu) - look something like a beaver-sized water vole - are a regular sighting, but today we got an adult with 6 tiny pups. They looked like pom-poms with tails Photos on a decent camera not my phone, sorry.

And to top it off a first ever sighting for us of a "Cistude d'Europe" aka European Pond Turtle (Emys Orbicularis). No photos of this either. It's basically mud coloured with a spotty head and when swimming in muddy water it was more than our cameras could cope with let alone my phone
