WEEKEND REFLECTIONS AND THE WEEKEND ROUNDUP

Time for Weekend Reflections and The Weekend Roundup and the letter is G and Griant.  An unusual topic I thought!  Now I have never personally meet a GIANT however while browsing the books in our library at Botanica Lifestyle Resort I came aross these 3 books for our young grandchildren to read.  The GRAFFALO  may not be called a GIANT however I think the mouse would have thought he was!! This Cock hen had a GIGANTIC comb and wattle!  My final shot is of a GREAT many birds both on the bank and in the water and I am using this shot for my REFLECTION photography today.
