films of my garden and the big cats

That was very interesting - the white lions are beautiful, and so is Puna.

Your garden is also very interesting. Some of your characters are a bit scary! I love the black planter and the black "wall" with holes in it. (And the lawn!)

Glad to see your dogs know who's boss!

Thanks NP. The while lions are amazing and very unusual. But it is sad to see captive animals walking up and down all the time like that don't you think? It was a good idea to record the keepers commentary too. The male at the back is fantastic. Will you be using some stills for more pictures?

The tour of your garden was fascinating - quite unlike any other garden I've ever seen! Nice to see Rosie again,and the mushrooms, but I hadn't seen the redheads before - what's going to go in front of them? The black trough is looking good too now its finished - a big improvement on the white one. You're right abut the artichokes being a glorious colour. Do you eat them?

I loved the "lawn" too - make sure you spike, scarify and feed it at the right times!

the dogs have to know whos boss melch as being bred for dog fighting they have a very dominant nature so they cant be boss . I hate dog fighting bye the way . I think its terrible to see a bird in a cage really let alone big cats . its a pitty you cant here puna chuffing which is a noise tigers make when there pleased to see you .I don't know what you mean about in front of the red heads stera . there is a nice patterned floor under that junk but know point cleaning it off till Ive done the pond . ive washed out the filter now ie charcoal and put it back . just got too let that mulm (fish poo) dry out and clean it up and spread it on my garden then cement time . as for wear the old seat was that the moles undermined im still thinking about that . you eat the artichokes before they flower but I like them for the flower . the film doesn't do the brilliant blue justice and bees love them . as it goes I have got to do something with my lawn as its really there for the dogs to eat rather than my acre . thanx xx

Loved the films of Puna and the white Lions, they are so beautiful.

Those red heads are amazing, so much work gone into making them and all the other art works in your garden. You have got quite a project going on with your pond there too. lol Don't forget to show us the completed work when you have it finished, it looks a big area, do you have Koi Carp in it or just ordinary gold fish?

Thanks for the tour keep up the good work with your painting and drawing, look forward to seeing the next one finished.

ofcourse I will show you it finished im hoping to do the local open gardens next summer . ill be keeping starlet , koi and goldfish but mostly its for the starlet . ill get a diamond back and an albino and a normal one or 2 . they can get 6 feet so need a good size pond . they cant swim backwards so the pond has to stay clear of plants etc .

Hi leigh its always nice to see whats going on in your garden , I always feel sad to see beautiful animals caged up pacing up and down and birds I long to set them free but know its impossible Xx

me too amy but they don't pace there puna was coming to see us still not the same as the wild . im going to come and see you soon but ill ring so you can get the soup on xx .

the white lions and Puna were beautiful. the enclosures looked small though, but they seemed happy enough. Hope you enjoyed your visit and that it went well.

You are obviously an animal lover!

I really like your concrete wall, I wouldn't mind something like that myself.

thanx lijemc I like the wall too .

Ah well, I didn't know there was nice floor in front of the redheads. The "lawn" i meant was the little one in the pot - not really big enough for the dogs! (Just being a bit silly...)

no worries stera xx
