I doubt this will work, but there's so much negativity & hate on this Forum these days that I thought I'd try & find an antidote. I'll try it for a few days, the idea being others join in. If it's just me, well I'll let it go, no point doing it if it's just me.

EVERY day has a highlight of some description. Fair to say there's a "lowlight" too, but we see more than enough negativity, so this thread is positivity only.

Much of positivity, of course, is in the mind, & our general outlook on life.

    Two highlights for me yesterday, both arose whilst I was having a twilight round of golf. Fair to say I'm a bit of a nature freak.

    First up, a huge thrill as I saw a Grey Heron at close quarters. They are shy birds, so it's very rare to get close to them. They are HUGE, about a metre tall with a 2 metre wingspan, & when they fly, they don't so much £flap" their wings, they just gently seem to wave them effortlessly. A magnificent sight. Here's an example, & this is NOT in slow motion.

    They are mean so & so's though, how about this....

    Or this, which I admit is not very "positive" if you are a rabbit....

    The other highlight was a squirrel who picked up a golf ball, presumably it's instinct thinks it was a nut.

    I've seen gulls & crows pick up golf balls, but never a squirrel.

    So much of what animals do is instinct. Same applies to humans I guess.

    OK, let's see if we can get a few others to share their positive experiences.

    Not something that happened but something I read that made me chuckle a clever play on words.
