    Sandwell Valley

    I did and they said the hide was open as normal. But when I got to the gate a sign was up saying no admittance. I have walking difficulties so was not very happy.

    Is there any chance that the trust can let people know when the hide is being used by schools, had to wait 2 hours until they left.

    7Dmk2 and Tamrom 150-600 focus issue

    I own this lense and its soft at 600 full stop. I pull it back a bit and always use f8 for bird shots. By the way I use a nikon. Got some wonderfull images. Just try what I said see if it makes any difference.

    Tripod for use with a tammy 150-600

    Hi all am after a steady tripod for use with a nikon d7200 and tamron 150-600 combo. Been told I could get away with a monopod as the set up isnt that heavy. I also have trouble walking so it has to be light as well. What do you recomend for me. Thanks andy.

    Over-wintering Hoopoe in Britain

    I thought the hoopoe in a certain West mids area would have left by know. Its been chased all over the place by people trying to get pictures. Why when you have 500mm prime lenses do you need to get almost on top of the bird??
