THIS THREAD IS NOW DISCONTINUED, please add to the new 2020 thread HERE
Often we don't have enough photos to create a full thread so thought I'd start an Odds & Sods thread where you may want to add a pic or two when you don't have enough for their own thread . Feel free to add your rogues gallery here !
I only had a couple of pics today, one a Treecreeper and the other a very hacked off looking Great Egret huddled against the reeds trying to keep warm !

The Jay was bound to show himself eventually, I was focused onto this branch for hours and all I had to do was push the remote trigger switch. I was busy reading and I looked up and he was there I had just missed him stretching his wings.
I noticed this whitethroat on his territory would often goto this twig so I sat it out and waited. 20 minutes later there it was. I pushed the button and got the shot. I spend so much time focused on branches or twigs with nothing on them I often have people ask what am I doing...... they think I'm potty.
Four very early mornings now waiting for the Barn Owl to come to a post he has been seen going to. I'm determined to get the shot. I sit it out on my stool with a camouflage sheet completely covering me all but the lens. I get cramp and bits of me go numb, the things we do watching posts. LOL.

Lot to learn
Slightly disappointing trudge around Coombe Heath at Arne this morning, mainly due to the weather, but a couple of highlights
My 1st half decent green woodpecker pic ever
That was within 30 seconds of getting there, so I had high hopes!! Then 2 minutes later my 1st greater spotted woodpecker of the year
Then the best part of 2 hours of nothing until on my way out my best "classic" Dartford Warbler pose, atop the gorse
