Sharing Complements

I have been called many things in my time; but recently I have felt very flattered.

I was said to have the” Skihari of a Big Game Hunter” – a complement indeed.  Only last week one of my customers referred to me as the “Pied Piper of Norfolk” while on a Norfolk Birding Tour – we had seen a distant Barn Owl and I squeaked at it drawing it a little closer to where we sat in the Landrover.

I like people to have good views. For no other reason than I want my guests to see clearly what I and others have been seeing all our lives and if you can’t share something with someone then I feel it is devalued. I guess what I’m saying is it’s good to share with friends and companions. Let’s hope we have enough sense to keep and treasure our wildlife and wild places for our children’s children to see and share.
