Thank you Johnathan
No patience when it comes to me and photography. I generally only go for an hour sometimes a little longer when I go birding depending on the size of the reserve. Any longer than that I'm usually bored. I mainly visit local reserves for this reason, which also restricts the variety of birds to see and photograph.
I agree with your approach.
In fact, from a pure bird 'observation' point of view, I've always said 20mins in a hide and you know what's about. If nothing shows, move on. Of course if your aim is photographing the birds, you may have to stay longer, if only to get more / better opportunities.
