Cheers Mark. The Jack Snipe was brilliant to watch. It was great to have found the time to get back to some birding.

A most beautiful display of Nature's grand magnificence. From the vast skies to the smallest birds, you've managed to make a marvellous report of this birding trip, and had the best of tastes in choosing a peaceful and delightful soundtrack to it. I can only say I wish I coud immerse myself on the video and be there, listening, feeling, beholding, smelling all sounds, air, textures. Absolutely delightful.

Thank you for such poetic and kind words!

@@philgowerbirdphotography They are most well deserved. I skimmed a bit through your Facebook page and your own site and was very glad with what I saw. I am just a humble amateur, making thesame mistakes ove and over again,succumbing to eagerness when cool obvectiveness are mandatory, and it is always a pleasure to read and listen to those whoare pro on the subject. I was delighted with your video with tips over capturing flying birds.
