    That reminds me lol. Last week when i was in LA we were sitting out on Clovis's terrace and we saw a rat running along the telegraph wires that connect to the poles. Instinctively i picked up an ice cube (I was making Mojito's so ice was nearby lol ) and threw it in the general direction of this big ass rat. (It was already dark so you could just see its silhouette against the sky). a second later we see the rat fall off the wire and head earthbound disappearing behind the neighbours fence. I dont think ive ever laughed so hard in my life Mainly due to the fact that we were pretty wasted, the distance to the rat was about 25 meters and the likelihood of actually hitting the rat was about 1/10000000 lol.



    Am i evil? ......... probably

    That looks like a beaver to me... are there beavers in Europe?
    Believe me, it is really a big brown rat
    There are beavers in Europe, but in the Netherlands they are not that common (nearly extinct, but reintroduced in some areas) and are very timid.

    At CDG we get small rabbits a plenty, probably too many. When at YYC, it's difficult not to notice the prairie dogs ....

    He's a cute bunny. There's a huge amount of wildlife around Manchester Airport from badgers to tiny little birds. Oh ask Mr.Valentine about the birds... he hit two of them while driving (by accident may I add) within the space of a week
    Hey its not my fault the stupid little critters cant get out of the way of me doing some cross country ralley driving.

    Cows, or better domestic cows, can be very curious. Especially younger ones tend to be nosy, the often come to see what you are doing. The one I posted was situated with her buddies under the lightpoles of a runway of SPL, they seem to be accostomed to the noise...

    Around here our only wildlife at the airport is stupid seagulls and eagles.

    Lol, nice one Jid. I won't post the pictures I've taken of the herd of cows that make spotting at the end of the runway at Ronaldsway a hairly business!! Suffice to say I have had to wash my trainers several times!!

    But here is my little buddy who happily sat near me most of the morning at MAN.
    Nice pic, it reminds me of a few years ago when a whole load of rabbits were living on a round-about on the main road to NZCH, I saw them a lot but then they vanished, I'd say the airport eradicated them (I'd like to say move but here rabbits are a 'pest') although I think they are coming back, I have seen a few on the roadside and a few hopping about in the USAF cargoyard
