So, another instalment of "Learn Flickr With PB" has been released, but looking at the images, I think they may be in reverse order

No idea what I'm doing, to be honest lol. Couldn't be doing with the adding of text, as everything seemed to take so long. Not sure there'll be any more full chronological outings done for the time being, probably just a page out of Snappy's book, and do half a dozen stand out shots maybe.

Your time was not wasted PB. A good collection of different birds

. The old saying "sometimes less is more" can be true.
PS. I was struck by the similarity between the Carrotbill and the Oyster Catcher.

Thanks Snappy, I hadn't even spotted it, and all of a sudden it was flying by in front of me, almost no cropping involved!

Thanks Linda, that was right down at the Bill, it flew along the "path" and almost clipped a woman's head as she was walking oblivious to it. She then spotted it, and thought she'd be able to sneak up close to it once it had landed. Needless to say she didn't, and I was just glad I had the big lens on lol

Thanks Jack. I think there may be a genetic connection between the two, I'm not sure how many generations back the diverging occurred
