Just because there's way too much great photography on this site...!
You know the feeling. You only got one or a few photos of it and they're not very good, but you can't bear to throw the photos away because they're all you have of that particular species. So you keep them, just until you get better ones :) We've managed to 'upgrade' some of the species below since these bad pics were taken, but not all...
Please join in! I can't be the only one who hordes terrible wildlife photos :)
Collared Flycatcher
Otter
Peregrine
and best (worst) of all, Nightjar!

Hi,
This photo is taken through a rather grubby patio door, the window cleaner failed to show due to the snow!
Anyway, this thread seemed a good place to record my coal tit near to my garden spade!
Is it normal for him to be on his own and anyone can shed light on what a female coal-tit looks like?
Many thanks Micolo
Spent 15 mins. setting up camera on tripod and remote; waiting an hour for the Woodpecker to arrive and this is what I got !!!
That'll teach me to double check the dial hasn't moved off AV !! Grrrrrrrrr
It should have been a much better version of this .......
and to make matters worse, the Robin made a surprise visit to the stump and that picture was total blackout, was able to get an impression of what I missed by photoshop-ing it to death lol
all these were totally black but goes to show what I may get next time if I remember to double check those settings !
I was tidying up my photo albums on the laptop last night and found this one I took last year at Amberley Museum.
I watched a couple of nests last year, one on Chichester Cathedral and was gutted that this was the closest I could get. Any guesses at what it is?
Need a bit of a clue; Is it an Owl or Bird of Prey ? lol
elm, ash, oak? hopeless with trees!

Ok here you go, this was the photo my OH got, he's got a better camera and lens.
If you click on the picture you should be able to make it out.
Hen Harrier ?
Or a peregrine?
A bird in the hand can make an awful mess!
