Wink  Hi I'm new!

Hello all! Icon_biggrin What a lovely forum - it's very nice to meet you all Icon_wink

Well a bit about me... I'm Caroline, a true wildlife nut and I now live in the beautiful Yorkshire countryside near Skipton. We only moved in 3 months ago from Shropshire and I'm throughly enjoying the wildlife here!

I have 3 passions... 1 - Wildlife (obviously lol!) 2 - Gerbils (we have 2 lovely girlies) and 3 - photography. I have recently bought myself a new super-duper camera (Panasonic DMC-FZ8) and I am getting some fabulous results with it which I hope to share with you soon.

See ya around on the boards! Icon_wink

Edit: Ooo! Forgot to say, don't tell my hubby I've joined another forum - he'll go nuts lol! Icon_rolleyes

RE: Hi I'm new!

Hello Caz, we are always happy to have another wildlife fanatic join us, and it's also good to have someone in a different part of the country.

Looking forward to having you figure out the foibles of the gallery, and will take a look at your photos now.

Welcome to Wildlife UK!

RE: Hi I'm new!

To get your picture in a thread, copy the link and then in the reply/new thread page click on the image button (the little button with the mountains and sun). A box will come up, copy the link into the box then click ok. When you post the reply or new thread the image will then be in the post.

Hope that helps Icon_smile

RE: Hi I'm new!

Caz, I see you managed to get your gerbils in the gallery Icon_smile . I have not seen a gerbil in ages (I'm not certain they are legal to own in my state of Washington, although I know that they are illegal to own in the state of California), so I did not know that they come in lovely varieties now.

RE: Hi I'm new!

Yes indeedy they are legal! I am a member of a brilliant gerbil forum and there are members on there from Washington who own gerbils, but you are right about California - no gerbils allowed sadly Icon_sad

I'm currently uploading pic's (notice they're coming in on the banner across the top lol!) so bear with me, I'm getting there! Icon_wink
