My Mothers' Day present

My Mothers' Day present (Wookie)

Look what my beautiful son Liam bought me for Mothers' day...no flowery cliched things from this lad...he gave me a ghillie suit for birdwatching!

I blurred the bush behind me a little so that the suit (that's me inside it) would show up better. My birdwatching possibilities just expanded massively. He even bought an extra bit of the camouflage material for the camera...although the camera didn't wear it for the picture.

I hope I don't stumble into your territory and see you walking in front of me. I think I'd run away screaming. It's amazing. I hope you check it occassionally for nesting residencies.

WOW Rose what a fantastic Mother's day gift Liam gave you, now all you need is a small chair or in my case a brick to set on and wait for your lovely feathered friend to come. you have to dedicate one day for birding with your new suite.

Great present, Rose, instead of flowers he bought you a bush that you could wear.|=)| Looks very effective too, just don't growl at any passers by or you might start an Urban Legend.|=)|

LOL! I would truly scare the crap out of my pooch if I were to start donning a getup like this ;)

A wonderful Mother's day present and I cannot wait to see what birds you get in this outfit.
