    Finally managed a picture of the Nuthatch that has started visiting the garden. Had one visit about 8 years ago briefly but this bird is now a daily visitor but tends to stay near cover where its quite dark hence the noise ( grainy picture ) i never have the noise reduction switched on the camera and don,t use post picture processing apart from some cropping

    Steve. Hope you're OK. Did you get your passport stamped

    Fantastic stuff Dave. Yeah you can train them to a fashion to come down to a feeding station, best thing to use is a old log stood up and slightly hollowed out on top, ues dead mice or day old chicks and nail them down to the wood, that way they will happily feed on the carcass without being able to fly off with it , may take a few weeks but the pictures will be worth it. There's plenty of pictures in magazines and online that are shot that way. Good luck Steve PS. Its a female or juvenile going off its colour

    Dylan. Not sure about iPhone but my Samsung phone camera can be used the same way a proper camera can by altering the settings, i bet yours or your wife's could do the same.

    Dylan. We're all amateurs on here as far as I'm aware mate, some of us are lucky enough to have professional quality gear , my camera is 7 years old as are 2 of the 3 lenses that i own, the equipment does help but right place, right time with any camera is more important Try using a fast shutter speed on your camera to capture the bee,s flying

    Mick. Trust your well and safe. I personally think that venue's will be open before Christmas. If that's not going to happen then I can see the scene going underground and going the way the illegal rave scene did in the 80,s . I would definitely be up for that. But I can just see all the head shaking going on with all the people who have deemed themselves above all the illegal stuff.

    13 screeching Swift over high headed South Andy . My mate put 2 Swift boxes up and house sparrows moved in. We also get plenty of bats about most evenings but I'm not sure what species , Bat detection gear is way too expensive for casual use so I never bothered and unfortunately there's no App available to help . I say there's no app available which is a lie the app available is to enable the plug in bat detection meter to work with your phone. The plug in detection unit is £200.
