Feeding is hard work!

[John Liddle]

A family of blue tits has nested in a hole in the barn wall (again) and the parents are hard at it feeding the young.

Thanks Alan & Jeff

nicely caught

I cheated - I used the Hahnel Captur remote trigger and set the camera up near the nest on silent high speed burst, then retired inside the house and fired the camera from the upstairs bathroom window when the birds came back with food.

Now that's a cheat I could get used to! Nicely done,

Thanks Garry - I can see lots of uses for these remote triggers - the next challenge is to try and use the infra-red beam to catch the swallows as they emerge through the window opening in the barn.
