You've been busy while I've taken my eye off the ball! Esp the harriers - apologies for sneaking over without warning last week - we were meant to be going to Wales but the forecast was better east so we bobbed in at Far Ings and then back to Blacktoft where I haven't been for years ..........

What a terrific site and wonderful images, I shall definitely be returning to see updates. Best wishes, Richard

Bravo for your site, I like themes, birds, flora, fauna, a feast for the eyes and makes you want to quickly resume the device and return to the field.
I would return to see more ...
Good luck
Bonne continuation
Gérard

Lovely photos ! Really nice shots and you can see the time and patience involved in taking these ! will visit again soon !

Very good indeed. Superb images - wish I had the time to sit and wait for the opportunities you have obviously had. Excellent skills and matched by the gear - hardly 'amateur' stuff!

David
What a fantastic slide show , really lovely pictures your doing a great job as always. Just wish I could capture a Puffin carrying sand ells, I was too early the first time I visited the Farnes..Bempton Puffin's were too far off, did not see them with sand ells but I plan to visit again...
once again, well done.
Roy.

Dave,

Really appreciate your kind comments on my site recently, always great to hear from a like minded enthusiast. I have to say I'm very glad you did - you have some stunning shots on here and I'm not sure how I've missed it before, it'll keep me busy for a while! So many birds I've never even seen, really gives me the urge to get out there!
I have added a link on my site to here, hope that's ok.

Look forward to seeing more of your pictures!

TobyH

Latest pix especislly Bittern & Gannet absolutely bril!

Dave...you visited my website recently and left a very complimentary note. I've been meaning to get back to yours and finally remembered. I love all aspects of your work but your birds really stand out. The quality and clarity of your flight pictures are stunning. It really amazes me how many species of water birds we share being an ocean apart. We recently had a European Wigeon here and it caused quite a bit of interest in the birding community. Spring migration is on and with it comes more opportunities each day. Enjoy the spring season...Butch

Your site is looking excellent - really enjoyed the recent images too and seeing what you got in Scotland ........ that red deer will stick in my mind .......... more power to your 'shutter finger' ......

Just revisited David, it is a beautiful website, some terrific pictures, like everybody else - I am very envious of your Bearded Tit selection. Just cannot get near them.
The Bittern are splendid too.
Many congratulations.

Thanks for the comments re my site, David. When I remember how to set up a link to yours from mine, I will do so.

Enjoy your retirement....
Ben

Your passion for photography and mastery of your equipment shows through in these fine images. Can't think of a better way to spend retirement.

Hi David. Thank you for your kind comments on my site, they really are appreciated.

You have a lovely site and I am enjoying looking through your marvellous photos - you really have some lovely pics here. I have added it to my favourites and also linked to here from my site and will be returning again and again.

Fay

Hi David,
I'm the lady you were talking to at Water's Edge yesterday. I've just been looking at your web site and I think your photographs are fantastic. I have really enjoyed looking at them and to know most of them were taking on my doorstep it has definatly been an inspiration to me so I'm going to practice practice and more practice.
Thank you, Clare

David,
Thank you for your kind comments about my work www.wildaboutwildlife.co.uk.
I have taken a good look around your site and I can see you really have a gift for photography.
Long may it continue.
Best wishes for the future

Look forward to seeing what the mark iv does David - should be awesome once you've had a chance to get to grips with it.

The new look is indeed looking good but get the slide show embedded for the main galleries - its a major leap by zenfolio and you must take advantage - full screen pics are awesome!

I like the new look to your website David.
Hopefully the weather will be improving soon to enable us to get out and about, i'm getting a bit fed up of winter now.
Vince

Hi Dave: Thank You for looking at my Zenfolio site. Appreciated. Your Bird shots are Fantastic. Superbly sharp & Clear. Mind you, your Butterflies and Flowers are also excellent. You certainly got the Eye! Now all I gota do is Practice and practise and I might get as half as good as yourself. Loved looking at the images. I like the way you have put your shots into folders that are dated by the month you took them.
I shall definatly be back to take more looks very soon.
Take Care & Good Photography to you.
Happy New Year.

Awesome shots David !!!
I'd say that you've gotten very very good indeed with your photography "hobby" since your retirement. You have a wonderful collection of great shots and I'll be spending a lot of time going thru them and keep saying "Wow, nice shot I need to get a shot of one of those !"

Dave: Thanks for the compliment on my web page. I took a quick look at your's and I really like you bird pictures. Nice clear, sharp images of birds we don't see here in new England. I noticed at least some were taken in Sherwood Forest. Is that the same Sherwood Forest the was home to Robin Hood? If it is what a great line to add to the title. Photographed in Sherwood Forest. I'll look more closely when I get some free time (after the holidays). I noticed you have the Canon 500mm. I use the 100-400 zoom. It's a little more versatile but doesn't have the range of the 500. Must be a great wildlife lens....Merry Christmas...Butch

The quality of your galleries are testament to the amount of time and effort you must put in to obtain these top quality images.
Keep up the good work David, I always look forward to seeing you most recent captures.
Vince

This is a glorious website: you have the 'eye' for photography - long may it keep 'seeing' and adding the results to here ........

Great galleries David! I really like the birds especially. Hope I can get some like these someday.
Chris

Hi David, many thanks for your kind comments on my photos, they are appreciated. You certainly have a great eye and the ability to capture what you see as your photographs are beautiful. Your flight shots are exceptional. On a photo workshop I recently attended in Florida, I met a couple from the UK who have a zenfolio site also, perhaps you would like to look, it is http://philstone.zenfolio.com
I'll be checking back to look at your great photographs - thanks for sharing, Myrna

Hi David,
Nice of you to have visited my site. We seem to have chosen the same retirement hobby and like to photograph the same thing. Really a treat to see your images of birds different from our own on this side of the pond.

David, to start off with - - thank you for visiting my Zenfolio site. That was very sweet of you.

Secondly - you have some really wonderful shots. I love the Dragonflies & Damselflies gallery & those of the Atlantic Grey Seals. And thanks for sharing the Rarer and rare birds of the UK

Lil :-)

Hi David, thanks I've really enjoyed checking out your images aswell. I read an article about the Lincolnshire Grey Seals a while back, sure looks like an interesting place to shoot. Jess Findlay

Hi David, Have really enjoyed checking out your photo's...will continue on with them. Interesting to see bird and wildlife species other than our own, here in British Columbia. Cheers, Randy Findlay , Burnaby, B.C.
