As a Cumbrian "lass" love your videos, gave me loads of ideas. Living in Cumbria, luv accent

[@simoneardley]

Thanks Andi, great part of the country to be living in. Ive got a few trips planned up in your neck of the woods soon !!👀📷 Thanks for watching😀

[@andirutherford2615]

Utilised some ideas and got some good photos, thing is you dont need travel far, my best photos literally just a few feet in from a forestry england car park, just used a few tree stumps as feed tables, planted a branch for birds to land on nearby, but one tip for you suet balls …. try squashing them into the bark of trees, nuthatches and GS Woodpeckers love them, and red squirrels. Though got one daft woman shout at me as her dogs might be allergic to sunflower hearts and suet. Ooh even got a cuckoo, not feeding just being nosy

[@earllogan6223]

Your an inspiration Si,thanks👍👍👍👍

Great tips there Simon, did you notice that branch had a bird head shape on the end of it, strange that !!

[@simoneardley]

Thanks. Missed that one Greg 👀👀👍🏼

[@jasonmeade9000]

That quick charge was one of the reason I got the River Max. It's lightning quick.

[@simoneardley]

Yeh it surprised me how fast it was Jason 👍🏼

[@sue.Hoo123]

All excited, sat down with a big mug of tea, thinking 3 vlogs in one week 🥳, but no, almost tempted to watch again. Looking forward to the next one 👍

[@simoneardley]

Sorry Sue, I messed up the first download so had to re edit it. Feel free to watch some earlier ones again 😉🤣🤣 All the best, Si 👍🏼📷👀

[@larryzamora1698]

I like the App. I just wish that my Bluetti had an App that can monitor my solar generator.

[@davedewdney]

Hi did u put this up few days ago

[@simoneardley]

Yes I did Dave, had to take it off and do a re-edit.

[@davedewdney]

Ok cool i had to do that with my fox video as it come up with a copyright on the music but i got the music from iMovie so can’t see why it’s copyrights but there you go

[@lornekidd2352]

Another good vlog, one issue I had with the milk bottle tops is the squirrels in my garden destroyed them, I now use similar sized metal ones with a couple of drainage holes drilled, they last forever 🙂

[@simoneardley]

Yeh fair comment Lorne, i tend to take them off after each session as I like to mix it up with the perches. Good shout with the metal ones though👍🏼📷😀

[@louisfrantz8940]

Thanks Simon for the video. I have been looking for a solar generator and I wll take a look at that Ecoflow.

[@simoneardley]

Cheers Lewis, definitely one of the better brands on the market. I think they have a sale on at the moment👍🏼

Another great video

[@markfrost9005]

Hi si, have you been to the belted kingfisher that's up your way, hopefully it will stay around for a few days hoping to come up to get a shot of it. Hope you've had a great Christmas and a happy New year mate to you and yours 💕

[@simoneardley]

No, ive not been to have a look. When something like this pops up it always ends up a bit of a rugby scrum!!😆 It'd be nice to see it though, amazing how its ended up over here👀

[@ordinaryhuman3111]

Great video Simon. Can't really complain about the River Max. It's a really a workhorse. I use mine to charge my drones.

[@simoneardley]

Thanks for that, yeh a quality bit of kit. Great for car camping too!!👍🏼

Another fab vlog Simon its given me some motivation to get back out. Where did you get the little pots of that bird mix that you put in the milk lid they wouls be handy to have in the bag

[@simoneardley]

Thats what its all about Gemma, giving each other a bit of motivation now and again. The plastic containers are old whey protein tubs. Body builders and fitness people use them. Thanks for watching 👍🏼

Unfortunately not, looks like the primes are going to have to go which is a real shame🙄

@@simoneardley have you updated the firmware?

It's intitled "I made the change/bird photography with my Z6ii"

Great video as usual, is it just chicken you feed the buzzard???

Cheers Stephan, they were meat trimmings from the butchers.

Hi Simon what editing software are you using? I have 600 mm manual focus will it work with d500 looking to upgrade my camera body many thanks john from Anglesey

[@simoneardley]

Hi John, for compatability Ken Rockwell is always a good site to look on. Pretty sure it should work but obviously no AF. Ive just moved over to Lightroom from Affinity Photo

[@gregwilsonnaturephotography]

Hey Simon, by chance did you upload this video by mistake? Or is there something updated in it?

[@simoneardley]

I got some of the Power Station details wrong so had to update them.
