    Thank you Beryl.

    Will try to get on the site as much as I can but am very limited to internet access at the mo.

    The equipment I use is a Canon 30D with Sigma 50-500mm lens. I also have a garden hide from which I take most of my pictures.

    Thank you Babs.

    I was actually trying to get a picture of one coming in to land then this one flew right above my head. To be honest I did not think I got it at all.

    I think my favourite is the wagtail, at first glance it looks like it's been catapulted.
