I'm so glad that you had a successful trip out! Lovely photos and I learned something from you, once again.

thanks. got there at 4;02 pm and left at 4;46 pm so I was there for almost an hour. by that point i eventualy got cold so I took a few more pictures and then left.
taking pictures was more diffucult to do cause of the strong wind but im used to it. I used to go to the cotswold hills with my camara sometimes cause it was a new place for me around that time and I would take pictures of the river Severn and any birds that fly over it.
i ususaly saw sheep and birds of prey like the buzzard. at another i saw a kestrel once. at another i saw buzzards almost every single time cause it was faceing the wind. at hares field and coaly peak in particular or painswick beacon it would be so windy it was like a hurracane
compared to when your on the ground so iv had lots of practice.
at epney it would blow my long lens hard enough it would blow it away from where its pointing even though my hand wasnt shaky and was completely still. the wind blew the long lens from the right rather than behind or in front.
i was taking pictures and i didnt know how long we were going to be there for so I had to sit down and put my long lens on the table to take pictures eventualy which was alot better for taking pictures and filming the birds. the bright white one with the long neck looking like a dinosaur walking about in the background behind the lapwings is a little egret which is a type of heron
the back dinosaur looking one is called a cormerant
