BeckyBoo Posted July 6, 2008 Share Posted July 6, 2008 Wow You should send that one in to the BBC weather site, they'd use that in their weather gallery. (I'm a bit of a saddo - I like the weather gallery ) Mrs B Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Faye&Ant Posted July 6, 2008 Share Posted July 6, 2008 What a fab picture, I know they are destructive but I think storms are so beautiful to watch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hen Huggers R Us Posted July 6, 2008 Author Share Posted July 6, 2008 Now it's thundering and sheeting down with rain, the girls are getting very wet, but won't go into the coop Think I'll forget the Stormchasing career. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
susanbb Posted July 6, 2008 Share Posted July 6, 2008 Wow. Brilliant pic. Blustery here, but no where near what you must be experiencing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Looney Posted July 6, 2008 Share Posted July 6, 2008 What a fab photo Loads of rain here but nothing as spectacular as where you are. Chickens keep braving the outside for a minute or two and then beating a hasty retreat back into the run! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whittlewitch Posted July 6, 2008 Share Posted July 6, 2008 How come I never saw that??? Maybe it was when I had my head in the chicken run cleaning it out! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whittlewitch Posted July 6, 2008 Share Posted July 6, 2008 That explains it, although had I not had my head in the run, we can see for miles from our back garden Parbold Hill, Southport and on a clear day Blackpool Tower. Great photo though and very well spotted! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
