Inspiration point (IP)
Today is the 100th birthday of naturalist Sir David Attenborough, himself a wonder of nature and one of our very, very few genuine national treasures. So this week, please write about an animal (or many animals, if you prefer!) Animals you love, or hate, or that give you the horrors, or that you once fleetingly glimpsed in passing. I look forward to seeing the results!
