They have come out ok. I could have don with the same 3000mm today myself. I spent a hour with a male Kingfisher which was great except for the fact it was 100+ meters away and didn’t come anywhere nearer than that.

Oh the joys of wildlife photography. :lol:

This Sunday morning, lounging in the conservatory with coffee, I didn’t need 3000mm. In fact 30mm would have been sufficient …if I had the camera to hand.

Baby wren flew through open patio door over my shoulder onto coffee table. Hopped around tweating happily, un phased by the alien surroundings for several minutes. Jan and I remained motionless so as not to spook him into the closed glass areas. Didn’t need to worry…after finding nothing to eat he “purred” past my ear back into the garden. Magic moment.

Nice when that happens. I had a similar experience in a hide that has no door, I was in there on my own when a Wren flew in landed on the bench next to me, looked at me then went around getting spiders etc. This went on with repeated visits for about 20mins.
