    According to Swarovski it's a 1/4 UNC which it's not as its way bigger then that. Gitzo which makes tripods for Swarovski says it's a M12 x1.0.

    Willow tit or Marsh Tit?

    It was at Rufford Country Park in Nottinghamshire. I went there for Hawfinches, I did see a few but only for a minute or two before they flew off, but I was speaking to a man who said he came to Rufford to see the Willow Tit. If this is it I'm unsure. Thanks for your help.

    The villa I rented was between Porto de Pollensa and Pollensa at a place called Cami de Can Sieguinot and every night somewhere very close to the villa we had a Scops Owl calling.

    Mallorca 2016

    Hi Folks Regarding the Yellowhammer I saw it on 09.05.16 at Albuferata. I have seen many here in England but it could have been a very yellow Cirl Bunting, I cannot really remember. I have no proof as I don't have a camera but my son saw it as well and he also said yellowhammer.

    Norfolk birding

    I saw it on Monday 22nd at Flitcham. At the barns on the Flitcham to Docking Road just outside Flitcham. Very good views it was eating a little bird it had caught in the hedgerow along the side of the road. It was on the floor about 50 yards from us.

    Well ordered a pair of 10x50 EL Swarovisions and they came within 4 days, and saved me £400. Nothing but good praise for PhotoSpecialists.
