As for the macro, I'll go with Glo (sole) and say you're playing with words here.

I did mine on Saturday and was glad I had as there must have been a Sparrowhawk around here on Sunday, there weren't many birds at all! I thought I saw a Tree Sparrow during my count but it was too brief to be sure so couldn't include it.<br /><br />Now the mystery Monday macro! If you hadn't given the clue you did last week I doubt I would have got it and if you hadn't told us it wasn't a Coconut that is probably what I would have guessed.My first thought for today's was tree bark then on reading the clue I wondered about an old wrinkled potato but I am continuing along the lines of my first thought and wondering about a piece of bark chipping.<br /><br />Things are definitely looking hopeful for your nest box :)ShySongbirdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08148381873578585910noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8626959970978663576.post-42582128971502964592011-01-31T09:08:58.911+00:002011-01-31T09:08:58.911+00:00PS Lovely that the pair birds are nestling in tog...PS Lovely that the pair birds are nestling in together and that hope springs eternal.Glohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09532995590131801962noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8626959970978663576.post-14970480083178754482011-01-31T09:08:14.716+00:002011-01-31T09:08:14.716+00:00Aha!

Hmmm, but what's that got to do with the chip pan? Could it be dried frozen fish skin? So I'm just about to give up,turn off the computer, and head to bed, when it hits me "Sole"... so back I come to the first thought of Imprints in the crispy ground from the Sole of a Boot or Shoe.<br /><br />If it isn't correct, then I'll blame it on the time; if it is correct, then I'm brilliant (and modest) ;)Glohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09532995590131801962noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8626959970978663576.post-79706793702414450362011-01-31T08:27:04.060+00:002011-01-31T08:27:04.060+00:00I really haven't a clue but will go with a rot...I really haven't a clue but will go with a rotten potato is that a grub top right?ADRIANhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07113961163396562781noreply@blogger.com
