Have some suet balls and peanuts in the garage. Noted down the places I baited today so will go back out tomorrow and rebait with some different treats

Thanks everyone. At the minute the only food I’ve got is dry meal worm. The birds in my garden go mad for it so thought it might be best to use. Been putting them in nooks and crannies in the trees and on the odd fence post or two.

Hi Apologies if this has been asked a thousand times before but how can I attract birds to a certain spot to photograph them? I’ve some woods and a country park at the back of my house. I’ve hid away so the birds can’t see me and put some ‘bait’ in certain spots to try and attract them. Only...

Thanks for the advice. We plan on going back there tomorrow (weather dependant :rolleyes:) so will use this advice and see what happens!

Ok thanks. Just nipped our for a bit but will look at getting a Flickr account as I can’t remember the exact settings. Thanks

Hi I’m in Brandlesholme, so only next door. Not been into photography long but if you ever fancy teaching a novice a few tips let me know.

Hi Bought a camera a few months ago as wife fell pregnant and wanted to take some nice pictures of the kids. Turns out taking nice photos is harder than it looks :D I’ve got a canon 350D DSLR and a couple of lenses. The camera is pretty old (£50 on eBay) but hoping to upgrade in a few months...
