Hi Rainbow, I have a well old HP PC and a small new HP laptop (the screen detaches)
Hi Mike, thanks for the password tip.
I am very fortunate in being able to use younger members of the family as a resource to help change my browser and clear my caches.
Hi David, although we don't get the spectacular Starling murmuration displays you see, we do see similar displays by small waders, such as Knots and Dunlin. Don't you just love collective nouns for birds, a charm of gold finches or a parliament of rooks.
By far our most spectacular sight are the huge skeins of geese that flight from their night time roost out at sea in the Wash to feed during the day in land. They fly in a V formation benefiting from the slip stream of the one in front and "talk" to each other, the noise is better than any alarm clock. Were'as wild duck do the reverse, roosting during the day out at sea and feeding at night. I have seen as many as five thousand geese at a time and I can assure you that figure is accurate as I was shown how to count large numbers of birds by one of the two professional wild fowling guides in the area. Sadly, both guides are long gone.
Once again thank you all for the replies and for increasing my computer knowledge.
Peter
