I am going to try and get as many birds as I can, might be a bit tricky to get 52, so will fill in with landscape, cloudscape, sunrise/sunset, and as many animals I can find,

Will be in no order, might not be able to post each week because of work, and this year I will do all 52 :)

Thanks Mike, will take me a while to get use to the 150-600mm, Have to say, it is an excellent lens :)

I notice your feeding the nuthatch peanuts,if you find the birds fly of too quickly with them put them through a blender,then they have to stay and eat them.

Yes, it was like blink and they was gone, no more than a few seconds. good advice Mike, will try that tomorrow.

Also put a small stick about 2-3 ft away from the feed and slightly higher they will usually land on the stick before jumping to the feed take you pics there :D

The other good one is Attora shredded suet,you need a rubber glove so your hands stay clean but if you work some suet in your hands it becomes like putty,you can them mould it into holes ect.
