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.

Of course.
I'm always smiling . I was just a little tired today and should have stayed in and rested.
I go out each day and walk with my camera for about 3-5 hours some time overdoing things a bit that's all.

I do Pete. Can't sit around. Never could I spent 3 1/2 hours walking up and down the estuary yesterday. Had to wait for the tide to go out so I could make a film of the Whimbrels. They fly in to feed as the tide leaves. Today I walked the length of Exmouth through the natures walks and along the estuary to home.
