Equipment: Nothing but my notebook which is one of the most important parts of birding. To go out without it (which I only ever did once) is like going out without your pants on. I've never understood why I responded to the 'Cameras and Equipment' question in this way because in reality I own a Leica Telescope with eyepieces, Zeiss Binoculars, and a Manfrotto Tripod all of which cost a positive fortune.

Like I was saying to Babs its really rewarding to see your pictures in print Beryl especially in 'the local'. I've got a feeling you've had a few other successes prior to this one.

Well done......I'm really pleased for you.

Pete.

Just as a matter of interest Beryl. Can you change what your smilie says in this post if you own/use a Pentax camera?

Pete.
