    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.

    Thanks Beryl, the first two were taken through glass and the last two were quite far away, however I don't mind because I have only seen them at Martin Mere, I think they also get them at Leighton Moss RSPB

    More excellent photographs Babs. This time the Tree Sparrow, not an easy bird to see these days other than in their traditional haunts.

    Don't want to add a 'smart Alec' comment to end with Babs, but not at Leighton Moss.

    Pete.

    I wasn't quite sure about Leighton Moss Pete, I'm sure I had seen them somewhere else as well I must be mistaken. Thanks for putting the record straight
