Went back again this evening to the place I described in my Buntings thread to get some Stonechats if possible.

Well it was :D

I like the last one too! He looks so cute, with his little feathers blowing in the wind. Good shots!

Oooh missed these !

Very nice Jo :) they are a touch dark, but if thats how they were at the time can understand why you would leave them :)

Which lens you using now ?

Ian I bought another Sigma 70-300mm with a view to putting it aside for a purchase later this year for my little sis... been giving it a test run. It's making me want that other L sooner though :lol:
