Hello everyone
As always, thanks to all of you who commented and voted on my previous upload, must admit did better than expected...

Today’s image is for Ina (Gazina) to show her what a brave girl I've been..LOL

Yesterday, Paul and I went to Studley Grange butterfly farm.
Thankfully it wasn't much to get in; in fact we were a bit disappointed as a lot of the butterflies looked a bit tatty on the wings.
I've deleted the ones I took.

Now, as some of you know, I'm not into snakes and lizard type things...so imagine my absolute horror, as on the way to the exit this Iguana is on the floor with no intention of moving...
Paul was clicking away, so I decided to stand behind him and combat my fear...
A member of staff eventually came and lifted it to one side and put it in amongst some rocks and flowers - v1.
v2 is of it by the door.

Gill

Amazing story and a good capture Gill; I know how scared you were. Like you I was bitterly disappointed with this place.
