    Osprey over at just before 2pm. Put pretty much everything up from the pools. Headed south, towards Worcester.

    There is a drawback to the big lens though - not many, but for birds in flight, because the lens is so heavy, it's nigh on impossible to use hand-held for any length of time, so you have to use a tripod. And for me at any rate, that is restrictive when trying to track a bird, especially one...

    Had a good morning down at Grimley - cheers for the directions Brian. I did, at one point think I'd scared the GWE off, as I approached down one side, despite it not batting an eyelid at a couple walking 2 dogs along the same path. But thankfully the bird returned. Loads of dragonflies too...
