    We had a pheasant in our garden which is unusual for a small town garden.
    I’ve also seen rooks nesting in chimney pots where I live too, they actually go inside the pot and disappear from view. ? Nesting of course.

    Foxes everywhere.

    Many years ago, we took our 3 children to a nearby coastal beauty spot.  I sat high up on the cliff top while the family went rock climbing.  It was a beautiful day, the sea was sparkling.  All of a sudden, I heard the sound of a lone Bagpipe.  I turned to see a piper playing a lament.  It was a rare sight, surreal and beautiful.  I will never forget it.   PS I for love the sound of bagpipes.

    I was at a car show a few years ago, there was a guy walking about with a snake around his neck...handing it out to anyone that wanted to hold it!  He also had a dog with sunglasses and a neckerchief...   B)

    There's a guy that walks around Leeds city centre with a lizard on his shoulder sometimes!

    I'll have to keep an eye out for the Lizard man of Leeds next time I'm in town @Tori_Scope :D

    I tell you what I always enjoy spotting when I'm out and about. A hot air balloon! 

    That's a pretty rare sight!!

    p.s. Unless you happen to be at a hot air balloon show, of course ;)

    I remember one time Mum was driving me home from school one day, and living in Norfolk, obviously surrounded by many fields, open land/etc.

    There's this one particular stretch of road that has a house which is completely hidden by lots of greenery, anyway beside it is a opening for farm vehicles. As we approached the this stretch and saw a cat entering this driveway and as we got closer, out walks a pheasant.

    My mind was blown, I legitimately thought the cat had transformed into a pheasant because the cat was nowhere to be seen!

    Only in Norfolk :lol:
