Super Pauline! And you got the pair!
Did you sort out the issues with Ian's settings?

Yes thanks Dave - it was mainly due to the nearly impossible light conditions - on both days - and he was out of practice with the 7D which is still new to him - he was underexposing (as we did with the 40D) but the 7D you have to be more accurate with! Thanks OY - I was close to asking where you had taken yours till this opportunity arose - tho the Pennington birds are not a done-deal - there are days when they don't appear - we've been lucky to see both birds on consecutive days ......

Thanks guys: I wasn't sure about this at first but not seeing it for a week I can now appreciate it better - I didn't like the garish light behind but didn't want to falsify the background - I think I can now live with it!!!
