    etiquette when using bird hides

    Jeff's birding database

    You'd need to open the jbddata.mde database, look for the location table and delete the row you no longer need. Sorry, never got round to adding any delete options on the forms.

    I.D. needed for this moth? please

    Seem to be spreading over the last 10 years from what i've read, only other species that looked similar was cimbex luteus. I'm no expert, only mentioned cimbex sp. as your photo looked similar to one i was sent for my website gallery a few days ago :)

    Coolpix 8400 CF card compatibilty/recommendation

    I'm sure all CF cards will work in it, if in doubt buy a well known make or take it to your local camera shop to buy a card, you can then check it works in the shop.

    Never done any of the Kenilworth walks, but they tell me the castle walk is nice. http://www.celcat.com/kworth/walkmap.html http://explore.ordnancesurvey.co.uk/os_routes/show/12299 As for yellowhammers, on most walks I've done farmland seems to be the place to see them. Edit: another link added
