    Very good Chocky, perhaps we can eventually do one for each general type of bird which resides in the British Isles.

    Thank you
    Yes. I did have my Kestrel as I'm till chuffed with it and then I thought I could make one with the birds of prey so just kept it to garden birds. I would need some help there with photographs.
    So far I have used my own except Matt's green woodpecker and I know he won't mind that I have used it.
    Then I was thinking of aquatic birds . I'm not sure where to put the king Fisher. He's not strictly a garden bird More of a river bird.
    Also my spellings need checking too I think I have them all correct.

    Just seen this - very nice, and a nice reminder of what to look for in our gardens. Well done.

    I too have just watched the video. I am impressed with both the quality and the presentation.

    I have problems figuring out from reference books, what a particular bird is.(you seem to have to have an idea of what your looking for before you start).

    From these little videos I can figure it out quite easily.(it doesn't matter whether they are birds,moths,butterflies etc,there are videos on the site and this,to me is worth more than a housefull of reference books.

    Thanks DD.
    I really enjoy making them. Getting the names in the right places takes a bit of doing , especially if you shift one or add one in . all the names have to be shifted separately so It can take quite a while but good to see the end result


    Ooooooop
    Good job the boss didn't see that. I actually it wasn't shot it was shift and I didn't hit the F key hard enough
    Do you remember how I spelt 'Hi Tuts? 'Oh dear I have never been so embarrassed. Thank you for pointing it out .Lol. Have to be careful
