    Jackdaw ssp - help needed (NE Italy)

    Hello everybody, yesterday I managed to observe in a flock of feeding Jackdaws a couple of individuals which stood out from the rest of the flock. I was just wondering whether someone could point me in the right direction in terms of ID: apparently they are not ssp spermologus, but eastern...

    Nikon ED50 hand-made adapter: need help!

    I was also thinking as an alternative to a step-up ring. I have the Olympus CLA-T01 Conversion Lens Adapter which is a 40.5mm - if I got a step up ring from 40.5mm to, say, 70mm would it work? How deep are these available? It needs to be deep enough to envelop part of the rubber eyepiece ...

    Nikon ED50 hand-made adapter: need help!

    Hello everybody, sorry if the question has already been posed in the past, but I can't find a working solution to my problem: I'm in the need to fix my compact camera to my angled spotting scope; I use a 13-40x zoom eyepiece. I seldom use my kit for digiscoping, therefore I'd prefer a cheap...

    When the night comes

    A nice visitor to my back garden, often present after I mowed the lawn :-) when I see them, I'm never sure which species it is, since I live in the transitional area shared with the Southern white-breasted Hedgehog (Erinaceus concolor).

    Sea swift

    An unusual setting for this species despite its name, this colony chose as a nesting site the steep cliffs above the sea
