Thanks Kevin, once at 50 to 80 metres on big birds is where I'm not happy.
I'm working on that though.

Thanks folks.
Um! Bit of a let down now.
This was a display of rescued birds etc.

Just noticed the sign Richard. Yup! That's the bird refuge my granddaughter works at. She's the only lass there so if you were given a presentation by a female, that's her.
