^^ Like. I'm on my travels tomorrow. Hoping to find something interesting. If not I will take a pic of the neighbour's dog or something.

May the bird of paradise fly up your nose, with a badger on its back.

Thanks peeps.
As you might have guessed, I'm just loving taking bird pics.
I suppose it has the same appeal as fishing. You get to watch nature for hours on end, and sometimes you manage to catch something. It's like a peculiar mixture of tranquillity and excitement.

As with fishing, there are loads of 'Ones that got away'. This was almost a good pic, but the focus is sharp on the bird at the back rather than the one in front, and the shutter speed is too slow. | Click to see full-size image. |

What with the great shots from Red, then this guy on another forum - I retire from wildlife photography - at least the hills don't move!!! they where behaving a bit like Eagles while they hunted worms. to be honest i couldnt see they where worms until i downloaded the pics at home. they where landing some distance away from me but i think you can see the worm hanging from his talons [i had to crop that one quite a bit]. people tell me thay are scavengers,but they hunt as well as they where catching worms a good 3 hours in front of me. | Click to see full-size image. |

Mrs Red broke down in Lincoln last night. She rang the AA, and she rang me.
Two hours later, the AA hadn't arrived, so I drove to Coalville, borrowed an A frame and a light board and set off for Lincoln.
The AA arrived at the same time I did. It was four hours after she first rang them, and this is a woman alone at night with two small children.
Heads will roll.
