Unfortunatley MM you may not observe them down in sunny Norfolk, however you have owls,hares and bearded tits which are not in my location currently.

Stop it with this ‘shot this ‘ and ‘shot that’ ********.   You have been doing it for years and it wasn't funny then and is not funny now. Does a disservice to your images.

🤣🤣😅 thnaks for viewing. I have to get the patrons viewing some how.

about 40 years ago the Thetford estate (Guiness)....did an experiment about introducing grouse to the breckland ares it had....they prepared the area and introduced more heather species 3 years before the introduction.............

i can find no evidence of what the outcome was..........

I had my best brown trout (9 1/4lbs)  from the same spot where that boat is, also got a 12 1/2lbs rainbow 30 yards below the cages, 

those two fish got me a Trout Masters  award for the best 25 brown and rainbow of the year .

Derbyduck I've always fancied learning to fly fish & trying ladybower I've seen people catching some nice fishing out of it while I've been around there walking.

A lot seem to fish near the drain hole in the bottom left as you say must be a good spot with a feature for them. 

Derwent offer a have a go day I will one day get around to it I imagine it's a lovely place to fish even if you aren't catching its stunning on a sunny day
