    Rainham Marsh. UK

    Hi All Had a good day at Rainham today, the highlight being seeing a Peregrine on the tail of a Pigeon. Too fast to catch with my camera though. Could do with some help with these two please: I think I have a Linnet and a Redshank? Thanks in advance.

    UK. Hampstead Heath.

    I had a few hours on Hampstead Heath this morning, first time I've been there for a while. My camera really struggled with the low-light giving me half second exposure times, still haven't mastered the FZ38. Came away quite happy with two firsts; a Nuthatch and a Treecreeper but haven't been...

    East India Dock. UK 2 Gulls

Following previous advice, I've tried to compare the structure on the second one, looking at head/wing size but due to the angle I'm still at a loss. Possibly a 1st winter GBBG? Be grateful for...

I have elements 8 and have only used the most basic settings in it before, cropping etc. I took this picture today and know I have a lot to learn regarding composition and camera settings but was quite...

    Gulls London UK

    Popped out today to the East India Dock Nature Reserve, I wanted to find out what my camera was capable of more than anything and came away with some pretty dismal shots. Was able to ID everything I saw except these two. I've looked in my Collins guide and also the index above but I'm still at a...

    Tripod/Monopod

    Hi All I've been using an FZ38 for normal photography for a while and after reading this forum it seems the ideal kit for a few snaps of birds. I've also got a Panny 1.7 TC & adaptor but have never used them. If I was to use them together for bird photography would I also need to use a tripod...

    Hello

    Hello Everyone Just joined after lurking for a while. I don't have much knowledge about birds but have always enjoyed their presence wherever I am. I can usually be found out and about in London on my cycle with a camera, hence the name. I'm hoping to tap into the vast knowledge that the members...
