    Tripod for £100-advice?

I've posted some pics on my blog (easier to upload more photos), unfortunately they're not...

    Schedule one breeders

    Hi I've started this thread just to move the discussion away from the yorkshire birding thread as it seems to be annoying some (all?) of the posters on there, who fairly enough just want to hear about local birds. I still think it's interesting and worthwhile discussing, although I accept i may...

    Delhi/Bharatpur in August

    Hi Im going to have 4 or 5 days at the end of a trip to Delhi to go birding, but it will be at the beginning of August. I've seen on here that Bharatpur is quite poor at the moment, but will this be changed by monsoon rain by the time I get there? Also will be there with my Dad who isn't a...
