...Hi Rach, will do but don't hold your breath!!<br /><br />Hi Greenie, Luckily the lunch was good but I did have a pint of Bitter!! :-)<br /><br />Hi Warren, it was a nice couple of walks for me and the Crossbills nest only a couple of miles away, so I pick up a few flyovers from time to time.<br /><br />Hi Phil, I like hearing the Willow Warbler to, hopefully there will be some more surprises during the spring but doubtful if they'll be quite as stunning as a Hoopoe though!!<br /><br />Hi Dean, Thanks, luckily they like to pose a bit to :-)<br /><br />Hi ShySongbird, Thanks, I've got a lot to learn about what it can do but I'll take my time. Strangely on Mothers Day 2 years ago Stephen phoned as I drove to my Mums and he had found a Great Grey Shrike!! Luckily I saw that later :-)<br /><br />Kent is a really good county for birds along with lots of others of course but I certainly enjoy it. <br /><br />You never know what might turn up you may yet bump into a Hoopoe or a Crossbill :-)Alan Paveyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09286527051679271536noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27062148993749694.post-76055097636229011622011-04-05T12:50:51.238+01:002011-04-05T12:50:51.238+01:00Lovely results from the new camera Alan, great stu...Lovely results from the new camera Alan, great stuff! I have never seen a Crossbill and as for a Hoopoe (shame you missed it)!!! I doubt I will ever see one. I remember seeing one on a number of Kent blogs last year. You do get some great birds down there, maybe I should move ;)ShySongbirdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08148381873578585910noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27062148993749694.post-75145783977965453212011-04-05T05:43:23.929+01:002011-04-05T05:43:23.929+01:00Some good stuff there, Alan and that male Pied Wag...Some good stuff there, Alan and that male Pied Wag looks stunning in his summer finery.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27062148993749694.post-22897622303686388832011-04-04T20:36:29.446+01:002011-04-04T20:36:29.446+01:00Great post Alan.
