I enjoyed his beautiful stories and pictures of the barn owls and the other vorls including the red kite.<br />Horrible that he suffered a massive stroke and did not survive it. I think of his wife and his family who have to get through this difficult time.<br />May John rest in peace.<br /><br />Amen.Helmahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01669041021568049241noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2300766267906463889.post-50260121181937967772021-10-25T17:06:30.400+01:002021-10-25T17:06:30.400+01:00Thank you, Diane - you are partly mistaken, as you...Thank you, Diane - you are partly mistaken, as your kind expressions of sympathy were in your comment on my previous blog post, rather than here.<br /><br />Best wishes - - - RichardRichard Peglerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05115206853645323899noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2300766267906463889.post-38633523662424027832021-10-25T14:26:25.834+01:002021-10-25T14:26:25.834+01:00I am sure I left a comment here......
