A selection from a very frosty Slimbridge today.....most taken from the Kingfisher hide....

The pair of woodpeckers was one of the highlights of the day....:)

It also taught me the disadvantage of L lenses......they get bloody cold when the weather's bad :P

I hope you got written consent from those birds mic. before plastering them all over the internet. I would hate to have the RSPB on your doorstep saying you have infringed there rights to a private life ;D............Sorry, could not resist http://www.simviation.com/cgi-bin/yabb2 ... 1231472595

PS Great shots, the detail has been captured very well.

1. Captain, if the problem is not entered into the technical logbook.........then the aircraft does not have a problem.
2. And, if you have time to write the fault on a napkin and attach to it to the yoke.........you have time to write it in the tech log....see point 1.
