    Bird Strike

    Thanks all :), any luck it's the pigeon that keeps scoffing all the bird feed I put out, that'll teach him :ROFLMAO: I'm surprised it flew into the glass. The door is the secondary one of the pair so rarely gets opened and it certainly hasn't been opened since I last cleaned them. Blinds are...

    Bird Strike

    Just noticed this on my conservatory door, anyone any ideas what species this is. Sorry the images are a bit rubbish, I did try to strategically place a black background but it didn't work out too good. :exit: Thanks in advance. (y)

    Beginner PP help please

Select the bottom layer and using the Quick selection tool drag around the background. Now reselect the...

    Kingfisher locations

    Seriously chaps your wasting time at Upton Warren currently. Check the dates on the gallery posted by The W above, none of them are from the last couple of years. As I said in my post earlier there has been very little kingfisher activity recently. I hope this changes soon and if it does my...

    Kingfisher locations

    There's a certain breed of photographer that asks for all the best places to get the best pictures of KF's and other such prize specimens, they are the same one's who ask you what the best camera settings they should use when they get there. They sit in hides for as long as possible without...
