    Hello all, I'm following this thread closely as I would like to do it after I have seen the diet doc at the end of this month. It seems(broadly speaking) that any brand of shake does the job, its all down to taste and tolerance. @Geordie, you mention stopping your meds before you started the...

    Have you tried one of those collapsable hides? --mind you they will probably be as expensive as the lens! DO you still go fishing, as you have lot of shotys of where youve fished or rodents that have nicked your bait!

    Any Flickr users out there?

    Cheers Sid! I use a 70-200f4L. The table is about 2m away and is sheltered on three sides so the birds are brave enough to skip on and off it. They are all hand held, but this time of year I should be using a tripod as the light isnt too bright.
