    Anyone in Ushuaia end Jan/early Feb ahead of Antarctica cruise?

    Hello long shot I know but literally just booked last minute trip to Antarctica; plan to get to Ushuaia a few days before for contingency and also to bird the area. Would be great if anyone else is around to meet up to share costs/eyes looking for that Seedsnipe etc! best Adam

    Sony RX10 1V the new boy.

    thanks for all the responses. Steve i wanted to add that your journey in particular on this forum made fascinating and very informative reading, thanks for sharing that. I emailed Sony to see if they'd say anything about a date for a new model, but as expected they wouldn't say a word: With...

    Hi Mike thanks for this, that's most helpful. anyone got any thoughts/info on if/when sony will release mark V and what they could do, as size is clearly a restricting factor? thanks again Adam

    best wellies for birding?

    Hey thanks everyone for your suggestions. Am definitely going to get some insoles, that's a great tip. Looks like the muckboot form is the way to go. Has anyone had any experience with the jungle boot format, as am wondering if this might be a solution given the heat and humidity? Thanks...

    best wellies for birding?

    Might seem an odd question, But I've never owned wellies 'since I grew up', and I'm heading to Papua new Guinea and believe they are essential. Are there such things as 'decent' wellies, and if so has anyone any recommendations? Ideally I don't want to have to wear thick wellie socks in that...

    Austin birding post SXSW

    Hi Andrew, thanks for your reply. I'm working out what I will need to do; if I need a car and can't find anyone to hook up with then I will hire one. In an ideal world I'd go for the Whooping Crane (Rockport), Red-cockaded Woodpecker (Houston), Golden-cheeked Warbler and Black-capped Vireo...

    Austin birding post SXSW

    Hello I'm heading from London to Austin for the SXSW festival March 10-17 and am hoping to take 3/4 days time off after to do some birding.
