Well went for a walk round Elvaston castle, the condition's was good for an hour or more, I have never seen so many Grey squirel's in my life you could not go a few yards before bumping into them, and they where cheeky daft. Also Rat's Rat's and more rats in broad day light and bait boxes everywhere in a roped of area of the wood. Talking to a worker there, he said they are extremely worried that the Squirels and the rats will decimate the breeding attempts of the wild birds in the area, Over the years he has been there, he said ther has already been a heavy decline in a lot of bird species 
Any way I think I got some great pictures wandering around, even took some of the rats  not a animal I have much time for. Got a pair of swans coming in to land, there was a single pink foot I got shots of, load's of mallard's and Candian geese,and quite a few of the common smaller birds. Nothing perhaps that with a bit of look I could repeat tomorrow. But then something popped up, which was a real treat a Kingfisher landed on a branch over the stream in clear view I got him in view focused and fired a burst of shots before he shot off.I looked at them on full zoom on the Camera screen they looked pin sharp. I got back to down load my pics decided to remove some of the pics, as loads of repeats, and shots I did not want. In my rush I deleted the complete memory card, past photo's and todays  Gutted

I used to live near Elvaston castle about 14 years ago..The squirrels used to feed from your hand there was no rats but lots of chaffinches. Everyone used to take food to feed the squirrels. It looks like its got out of hand..Still a lovely place though..Sorry about your software. |

The problem is that the vast majority of people that visit places like that have no idea of the damage that the greys do, and think nothing of feeding them.
I am not surprised they are repoting a decline in birds, as this is what is happening around here sadly. |

I have used both and have found them to be first class in recovering deleted image files.
