Got a lovely pic of this yesterday after crawling along for nearly two hours. I think I have lost the plot   |

Beautiful!
I lost the plot like this years ago. It hasn't done me any harm.

No Fudgey, my shots wouldn't be worth it, LOL. All the belly-crawling I do is to enhance my wildlife experience, purely for selfish gain, I'll hold my hands up and admit this.

Its not actually a rock, but a limb of a tree that was washed up on the beach. My friend made a new gadget he had seen used in the states and its really effective. Its basically a frying pan with a tripod head fixed to it and you just slide it along the ground as you stalk your bird. Heres a link to someone else who uses it.

Funny that something so simple and cheap works, a bit of lateral thinking. | | |
