First post and Hoopoe
Hello all,
Thought I'd share this find as my first post on this forum and site.
Acting on a tip off from a collegue, I spent my lunch hour on the Surrey/Hants border watching this very wary Hoopoe, even with a 600mm lens, these images are a crop hence the poor quality, chuffed with the spot though :)
-
Well done Mike and an excellent first post. :) I'm envious.
I'll move this to the Photo section if you don't mind, as that's where people will look for images. :)
Shame I'm busy over the next couple of days, I'd have loved to go and have a look. :)
-
Excellent capture Mike. Well done :)
I have never seen these birds
-
Very nice. :)
I havn't seen one of these birds either
-
Wow, excellent images of a bird I have never seen before. Nice catch light in the eye and that crest:acclaim:

Seems a long time since I visited this site but time does whizz by these days and I'm always busy. Still it's good to see it's ticking along nicely. As can be seen from my avatar, the Hoopoe is one of my favourite birds and whenever I go to Portugal it's like seeing old friends.:)
-
I have to agree. It's a lovely bird. We should get the visiting here but have yet to see one :)
-
Yes quite some bird the Hoopoe and an excellent way to work your way into the website.
Question. This is a hard act to follow......so what next Mike?
Pete.
