If you like bird pics look at Flickr: spguk's Photostream . My son does quite a bit of twitching and is a pretty good amateur photographer

cheers to davemac for his suggestion of where to go this morning. I wanted a waterfall to play with new ND filter, and asked his opinion, i meant to borrow a pair of his wet knickers too, but i soon found i had taken some with me.
Jackhouse Nature Reserve (more like Jackhouse tip, when you go down Cobbs Lane).

1. long exposure about 15" i think, with ND filter
2. give em some names, i did, 3 old crows looking on disapprovingly?
3. after following downstream, peeping through the wood onto the frozen res
4. duck.............NO DUCK....THWACK! too late
5. beginning to think that yesterdays wasnt a robin after all
6. a black n white on the way back
7&8 i think that is Ingleborough dead centre, i have tried to blow it up, not with explosives though

Nice to see a different perspective, you will have to return when there is more water coming down off the moors around the turbines, it can get very noisy with water. Where is Cobb's Lane, never been that way.

A walk around the park today had me on my hands and knees for most of it.
