PCousins wrote in post #18835572 Again Spot On....10/10....My favourite bird, always a challenge getting a good photograph of a dipper, usually in dark areas with dense canopies. Thanks very much Paul, they are lovely little birds indeed, I'm looking forward to the next couple of months observation at this spot! PCousins wrote in post #18835573 Third time lucky to get this shot of bearded tit/reedling at Westhay Moor on the Somerset levels. Always hear them but rarely see them. very nice Paul, this is a bird that I haven't managed to even see let alone photograph, I don't think there are any any where near me at all so I probably won't either!

Thanks for the encouragement Mike, that nest is well anchored to the tree and those branches are all going to leaf up shortly so it may get a little more hidden but hopefully still be able to see them coming and going.

Does anyone know the reason for the massive population decline? They are a pretty bird, and I hope they can make a comeback. LD, or Mike
