Picture Gallery

I am no photographer, but with the aid of a Contax SL300 point-and-shoot digital camera attached to my Zeiss 65 Diascope, I am able to grab some photos of the birds I see. Here is a selection of my favourites.

A Common Redshank, taken at Titchwell RSPB reserve in Norfolk.

A female Great Spotted Woodpecker, taken at Draycote Reservoir, Warwickshire.

A classic pose from this Cormorant, also at Draycote Reservoir.

A Kingfisher at Brandon Marsh, nr Coventry.

A House Sparrow in my Warwickshire front garden.

A splendid male Pintail (with Pochard in foreground) at Slimbridge.

A Blue Tit taken at Draycote Reservoir, Warwickshire.
