Thanks Wayne and Bruce and ron - I nearly didn't post these as I felt they were a sort of 'cheat' - just sit in the hide and the birds come to you if you see what I mean - I suppose I feel uneasy when shots are this easy ......... I'm used to battling (the birds, the elements, my mother, my health - you name it!) before I get decent shots!!
