    Powershot SX50

    I'm going to retire my trusty SX50 as it is starting to develop some issues. I'm thinking Nikon Coolpix P900. Any thoughts on my choice?

    Bluethroats Extremadura Spain

    Yes, a couple of years back I saw bluethroats singing on the back roads from the Gredos Parador to Avila. However, I will be a bit further west in April Maybe see some near Ciudad Rodrigo as it's pretty mountainous there.

    Sunbird sp, Vietnam?

    Very specific, Grahame! Does "transitional" mean from juvenile to adult? I did catch some purple on the neck of one bird but couldn't get a photo of that one.

    Panasonic Lumix G9

    Any 600mm lenses to fit the G9? Looking for some extra reach, my 100-400mm zoom is very good but I'm chasing some shots of birds that are hard to get close to!

    Panasonic Lumix G9

    Hi Dyrlege, I visit Norway regularly, my son lives in Larkollen, south of Moss. Can you recommend any good bird-watching areas near that part of Norway?

    Panasonic Lumix G9

    As I'm not a pro, I will not try that solution! Perhaps there will be a 600mm lens available for the G9 at some point?

    ID please on Norway bird

    Yes, I strongly suspected whitethroat but the "pose" didn't look right. I usually see them in an upright stance, with the domed head more prominent. Thanks for your help.
