    Crossley ID Guide: Britain and Ireland

    A review of this excellent book. It's aimed at beginners and improvers but there's a lot of birders that might benefit from a copy. Bird book of the year for me! http://thedrunkbirder.wordpress.com/2013/10/18/the-crossley-id-guide-britain-ireland/

    Kowa TSN-IP4S iPhone Adaptor

    Hi all, I've been lucky enough to get a TSN-IP4S adaptor from Kowa to review. Fist tests show this really is easy to use. I've coupled this with a few camera and movie apps that really make photos and movies that pop a bit. Camera+ and FiLMic Pro are two paid for apps that allow a bit more...

    Nikon P7000 o P310 for Kowa 883?

    Just got mine and I love it so far. A few photos and video on my blog http://thedrunkbirder.wordpress.com/ It's a real improvement on my P5100 especially the focusing. I have an adaptor from SRB-Griturn that was designed for the similar P300 that works really well Also I've attached a Goldfinch...

    Nikon P300 for Digiscoping

    P310 is cracking... only just got it but been posting a few photos and videos on my blog http://thedrunkbirder.wordpress.com/ I've also attached a shot of a Goldfich from last Sunday at Bempton Cliffs. Only one problem so far... I had to but a new PC that was fast enough to edit the HD videos! ;)

    Fuente De Piedra Lagoon

    Morning all, off to Spain next Saturday and driving from Malaga to Seville for a couple of nights before heading into Extremadura. Does anyone have any up-to-date information on the state of Fuente de Piedra Lagoon? Greater Flamingo is a huge gap in my (pretty crap) WP list. Thanks

    Meopta iphone digiscope adaptor

    Does anyone know if the meopta iPhone adaptor was ever released and if it's available in Britain? I have a Kowa 883 and I'm due to upgrade my phone soon from a 3GS to hopefully the iPhone 4S. If anyone has any reviews please post them.

    Canon 40D with Kowa 883

    Evening all, Just starting to get going with my Canon 40D attached by a T2 mount to my Kowa 883. Can anyone advise me how to set the camera up? I have 'live view' on and remote release. I would normally shoot in Av mode. I'm after what modes to use and suggested shutter speeds as the aperture...
