Ö÷²¥´óÐã

Was the pub quiz working as it should the other night? Neither me or my mum could bring it up on our red button. We both have Sky, but it wasn't working for us. We managed to view the photographs last night though.

Springwatch is fantastic this year. Thank you to all of your for making my evenings for the next few weeks. I have been through a bit of a rough patch recently and you have lightened my life.

Chris, Kate, Simon and Martin, you are all wonderful. Congratulations Simon on your OBE!

Hello there, not strictly related but dunno where else to ask/show these.

I have a bird that has died in an unusual position in my back garden please see the photos at:

Thanks Mike.

hi did any boffins make connnection like i did on last nights show with the bats and dolphins they communicate with whistles and clicks it would be a major breakthrough if ther was connection. regards allan darbyshire parbold lancs

Great show and congratulations to Simon for his OBE, however, did he get this for wildlife work or impersonating `Kate Humble`, during his stint on Shetland i felt sure he attended a nordic festival as someone famous, namely Kate Humble, however is it just a coincedence that the two have never been seen in the same place together.
seriously tho a really great presentation of nature at its finest.

We moved into our present house in Oct 2007 and we had House Martins nesting under the eaves the following year.The year after they returned but did not nest in the old nest. Quite a few birds showed interest but did not nest. Will they ever return to these old nests and should we leave them alone

lucky we have sky so we can change to bbc england..or wales...or northen ireland to get unsprung... because it is nt on bbc scotland :( :O :O seems a bit unfair as unsprung is the bomb.
