The guest book is now uploaded so any comments you wish to make please feel free to use the guest book to make them. Unfortunately I had to erase the Diary due to lots of undesired spam and comments being made so that button no longer works.

21/11/2011. I have just come back from a three week birding holiday in South Africa. I have now completed my Trip report. As always the written report is summarised and on the page at the top are links to pages of photos. There is also a page of recommendations.

All new photos are in the Recent Photos Gallery.

Welcome to my site.

I am foremost a birder but on my travels I try and take as many images as I can. For a couple of years I digiscoped but in late Nov 2006 I purchased a new DSLR set up which was a Canon 30D + a Canon 100-400 IS USM lens coupled to a 1.4 Converter and since then I have concentrated on taking photos using that set up.

I changed this equipment to a Canon 50D plus a Sigma 150-500 Lens at the beginning of August 2010 so from that date onwards all my photos will be from this set up.

I will be continually adding new images, trip reports etc so keep an eye for any new additions.

I hope you enjoy your journey around this site and also hope you will leave some constructive critiscm in the comments section as you leave.

Thank you for visiting this site and I hope you like it enough to re-visit it from time to time.
