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.

Default Billy!

Was 'playing' with my Christmas present recently transferring my transparencies to my computer (impressive piece of equipment) and it will take me an eternity though lots are only fit for the bin.

Anyhow hope you like my 'Billy Goat' taken many years ago at an animal sanctuary near Carlisle. Its a wonderful place to spend the day amongst some unfortunate animals taken into care there, but most of which are able to spend the rest of their lives in peace and tranquility after rescue from hard and often cruel times for one reason or another.

Pete.
