Nev. Slightly off topic but when I clicked on the link there was a few records I might be interested in sort of thing one of them was a sue Lynne don't pity me rca demo. Never seen one in my life Steve

Russell. Just for you a pair of fledglings I had posted this picture very early in this thread Steve

Slightly off topic but my first ever however feeble attempt at capturing fireworks. Wrong lens, wrong location, i live in a valley so its very limited viewing Steve

Russell. Here,s a fledgling nuthatch from last year Steve

Ouch ( the closest i could get to a bush) Kev it could have been a brambling that attacked you Steve

Nice Dave. always impressed with your wildlife tales. Only been lucky enough to have robins feed out of my hands and that's only happened twice Steve

Nice one Russell, love nuthatches Steve

Went Leighton Moss today, bad move full of tourists after Autumn watch. Never seen it that busy. Got a new tick off my bird list. Seen a Water Rail for the very first time. Unfortunately no pictures. Another Leighton Moss first was a Otter to far away for a picture, had a robin perched on my hand, seen a brown hawker dragonfly, seen a peacock or red admiral butterfly couldn't make out which one. Then sat for a hour waiting for the starlings to come in to roost, they must have gone to a different part of the reserve as i only seen a small flock of maybe a few hundred birds. Very happy Steve

Chris. Having never been back to Wigan town centre since the new shopping centre was built I can't help you. The flats where slightly further down station road than where the casino building ended by a good few yards. Steve

You mean there was soul after Wigan And before Steve

Love the simplicity of this picture, which wasn't staged it was actually lying on the path Steve

A few more Autumn pictures Steve

I personally am in to good soul music regardless of what pigeon hole someone puts it in.I don't mind been classed as a Northern soulie. I've got something good that most people will never understand and if they want to believe in the myth that we all wear 40" bags and star jumpers. That's there problem not mine because I know the truth. Steve

Martyn. Who where the good looking Gloucester lads that don't scare birds. Thought you lot where used to be put out in fields to protect the crops. Nice picture by the way. Female I'm guessing with the brown on its head. The male in winter plumage is a stunning bird. Think you might be just on its range limit in your neck of the woods mate, don't normally end up this far west. Steve

Mace. Looking good mate. Hope it well Steve

I never thought of them as being wary, probably just scared of dodgy northerners

Nice one Adey. Hope your well Steve

Managed to photograph two out of the three Mistle thrushes that where eating the berries on my rowan tree in the back garden. These must be one of the most wary birds that drop in to the garden the slightest thing and they fly off Steve

A anthem in every sense of the word . Both sides Simply stunning Steve

Stunning Martyn, stunning Steve

Good luck Steve

Hilton Hotel. Edinburgh has to be the poshest place I've ever been to a soul night with bar prices to match. Pint of magners cider and a glass of coke was about £10 Chorley town hall used to be smart when roger banks used to run it Bolton town hall must have the grandest entrance with that big sweeping double staircase Steve
