I'd prefer you uploaded them to the gallery rather than inserting very large images in posts. In fact I may well remove the ability to include images in posts except via the gallery in the future.

... but nice photos!

I have not put photos in the gallery I will see if I can work that out.

The camera is a Sony 6 mp. A bloke in Bainsdale imports the coponents and builds them.

I paid about $450 for it.

I tried wildlife photography for a while and found it too difficult to find any animals. I find that visiting the right Zoos, can offer a large variety of animals that can be photographed as in their natural environment.

That's one of the reasons I love wildlife photography - it is difficult and requires patience and perseverance. As a result, getting a good photo is far more satisfying!

It's one of those things I guess that require a lot of hard work but the outcome is very rewarding, in my eyes an amazing photo of an animal is better than any high cotour fashion cover.

Curiouser and curiouser. We are discussing black red squirrels in another thread, but I guess this is a black grey squirrel.

There was a fair bit of hype a few months ago about a mutant black squirrel invading and out competing the grey squirrel in the uk. Apparently they have been here for years and years but are only now starting to take off. It may have been previously mentioned on here but if not then take a look at this, there are probably more sites with more/better info.
