    Britain's most prolific egg collector, reoffends again.

    He should be locked up or strict enforceable curfew order every nesting season.

    Very busy at the bird feeder today!

    With the new visitors and reappearances of GSW, parakeet, goldcrest and redpoll it got me thinking about the no show of long tail tits this winter. It's the first time I've not noticed them unless they have been very sneaky. I have missed them.

    Any point putting out niger seed?

    Once I've done all my niger seed I'm retiring my niger feeder. It took ages for the first one to use it and now they just pull all the seed through the small holes and leave huge piles uneaten on the plastic plate underneath. The sunflower hearts on the other hand never lasts more than half a...

    I've just seen this guys photo and he should be jailed just for that pony tail at his age alone.

    Finches Friend feeders

    I have both the peanut feeder and the seedfeeder. I love mine. I've even seen the robin on the seedfeeder. Can I recommend them given the price....yes, given my own personal experience. It did take a while before the blue tits worked it out. The rest soon followed. Ps, I do have a torpedo...

    Europeans, which American bird would you most like to see?

    Sax zim looks amazing. It's somewhere I'm very unlikely to visit, unfortunately. I spent most of my winter nights watching to YouTube's of sax zim and great grey hunting. There's quite a few owls I'd love to see, with the brown fish owl being my favourite and my number one target.

    Europeans, which American bird would you most like to see?

    I'd love to go to sax zim bog to see the great grey and barred owl.

    The feeders seems to have slowed down now the weather has finally changed. Ungrateful buggers.

    I always said I wouldn't intervene but I think I would for the GSW, I love him and he's the only one we have. He'll probably go once spring is here.

    Male sparrow hawk perched on the bird feeding station today. I do hope he's not run into the GSW.

    Why do Pied Wagtails walk on ice?

    Because it was the chicken day off.

    Very busy at the bird feeder today!

    I've no idea if they've become established in the Bradford area but I've seen my first one some woods where I go to check on the buzzard and I've seen a minimum of 4 and heard calls from another unseen one over the Thornton area of Bradford last week. They've been in the area for over a few...

    Eagle Owl?

    If this is Majorca then I think you are right about no tawnies, there are, if I'm correct, long eared owls and looking at that image I'd go with Mike and say long eared owl.

    Camera advice...R7

    Thanks for your reply Owen. Looking back at my OP I realise I should have made this post more about lenses than the camera as I've more or less decided on the R7. I will look and check prices of 400 and 500 lenses.

    Camera advice...R7

    Wow that was quick Simon. Thanks for answering my query. By your reply the R7 would seem to be suitable and a good buy. I've sort of decided that this is the camera I want and it more about which lens would be the best. Thanks

    Camera advice...R7

    Hi, after looking at the amazing photos on here and YouTube I'm getting itchy feet and want a camera and get involved in this amazing hobby. I'm going down the used route and convinced myself of an R7. I've no idea if this camera would be ideal for me or what I need so any advice would be...
