Since its inception, Blog Posts have been thwarted by unavailability
of Internet access, interference and unnecessary changes of format by
the provider (Google) but NEVER by lack of anything to 'say or display'.
Today we reached that point mainly due to the adverse and unseasonable
weather, almost constant rain since my return peppered with frequent
bouts of high winds, a lack of subject matter, mostly birds which are
always scarce at this time of year, and today another Google crash? It
was always going to be Clutching @ Straws even on waking early morning
to once again hear the rain beating against the window. But fear not,
even though conditions were bad enough to keep me at home, coincidentally I
had received an e-mail from Marc Bulte, who you may remember I met on
Fraser's Hill, Malaysia, with a good number of photographs attached.
Perfect timing you may think, but when trying to Upload them the system
wasn't working. With a limited knowledge of such things, I have tried
all I know and now feel a phone call to the Secret Lemonade Drinker
coming on. Too late for today certainly but we may have the ship back on
the rails by tomorrow?
Well, would you Adam and Eve it? Having just
completed the paragraph above I was suddenly struck with a moment of
genius, why not 'drag' the photos from desktop folder to Blog page -
and it worked. However, I am typing this before proving that it will in
fact Publish, but that's yet to be seen. As mentioned above these
photographs are © Marc Bulte of birds I was far too slow to focus on or,
in the case of the first species, too incompetent to gain correct light
settings. Here we go with
CRESTED FIREBACK YELLOW-VENTED BULBUL
CRESTED HONEY BUZZARD
CHESTNUT-BREASTED MALKOHA
CHESTNUT-BROWED FLYCATCHER
GREY-BELLIED BULBUL
ORIENTAL PIED HORNBILL
LESSER YELLOWNAPE
Well, bacon saved by Meneer Bulte, who I hope to speak to tonight and by the look of the latest weather forecast may be called upon to provide the goodies tomorrow!
