Dougie nice shots. (Kingfisher should be Canary!). I hope to see a few more in Seville next month.

Great catch in good light! That's good to have bagged that as the RIAT one could be in worse weather or not at all.
Gotta stay positive? Honest! :halo:

That's certainly rather bright - a very smart and shiny catch - thanks for sharing.

(Looking forward to seeing one a bit further south at Fairford in July hopefully - maybe we could have some of this weather with it too please?)
