    Mystery dove

    Hi, These photos were sent to me by someone from Nottingham, UK and have me stumped. They wondered if the bird was an escaped Pink Pigeon. Admittedly, it does show a passing resemblance to that species, although I'd think it highly unlikely that this would be the case. Also, in some of the...

    Shorter pan bar for Monfrotto MVH500AH

    Hi, I have recently bought a new Monfrotto MVH500AH. It's good, but the pan bar (handle), at around 33 cms, is way too long. I believe the model of the pan bar is the 500HLV. https://www.manfrotto.co.uk/pvc-free-pan-bar It's difficult for me to get it into the back of my car because it extends...

    Using the Sony RX100 with a Swarovski 80ATS 25-50

    Cameras with 37mm or 58mm lens threading

    I'm currently using a Swarovski HD80 with the 20-60x zoom along with a Nikon Coolpix 995 and use a SpiderTech adapter. I want to update my camera, but really like the SpiderTech adapter as it slips straight over the lens and you can be shooting in seconds. The adapters fit onto any 37mm or...

    Birds from Football Grounds

    Hi, I have a friend who is writing a book on 'Football Lists'. I'm trying to get the top ten rarest birds seen from a football ground. I remember a couple of seasons ago there was a Black Kite seen over (I think) Pride Park, Plymouth. Anyone else seen a rare(ish) bird from a footy...
