    Lufthansa and Alitalia - fees

    Thank you: the three economy options (promo, classic, and classic plus) with Alitalia state 'booking change at a fee', with economy flex offering free booking changes: Swiss Airlines state more or less the same, but I'll contact the providers like you said. Lufthansa I've just discovered charge...

    Lufthansa and Alitalia - fees

    I'm trying to find out the costs involved for changing flights with Lufthansa and Alitalia. If anyone has had to do this with either airlines, any info on the fees would be greatly appreciated (this is for a birding trip obviously so I hope it's okay that I ask this and that it's in the correct...

    Passerine Sulawesi

    It crossed my mind, but it seemed a bigger bird than a flowerpecker (though not in anyway disregarding the suggestion)

    Passerine Sulawesi

    Apologies in advance for the poor shot, but would love on opinion on this photo. Taken in Battang, south Sulawesi. Am probably way off with this but possibly a juvenile myna of some sort? Many thanks

    Pencil advice and Redwing sketch.

    Looking to get back into drawing and more importantly start sketching in the field (something I haven't done before). Any suggestions as to what pencils to get for sketches, and do I need different pencils for proper drawings? Attached is a Redwing sketch I did about a year ago. Many thanks...

    Tandayapa/Bellavista/LasTangaras

    Just a quick question, if you had to choose between the lodges of Las Tangaras Reserve, Tandayapa and Bellavista, which would be the better choice? I'd be volunteering so I wouldn't be paying the normal rates but just to compare the birds of the area, the lodges themselves, the staff etc. Many...

    Hi all, Was wondering if anyone could shed some light on where would be the best places to volunteer as a guide in South America. I know this sounds ridiculously broad but I have come across some of the following and was wondering if anyone had taken part in them, and if there's any other...

    Canon 1300d

    Hi all, A friend of mine asked me about this which is selling in Currys for under 500. He's more keen on catching a quality image of his garden visitors rather than a record shot of a rarity that's a million miles away. Any info as always is greatly appreciated, Regards, Sittelle.

    Requests for Auvergne

    Hi all, I will be in the Auvergne regions of Ydes and Ussel over the Christmas holidays for a few days and was hoping to get a bit of birding done. As I am with the family I will probably not be able to travel too far (from google maps I see the two regions are nearish to two national parks...

    Hi all, Wondering if anyone can shed some information on catching the following species in Paris: Black Woodpecker, Lesser and Middle Spotted Woodpecker, Firecrest.
