Hi Patrick What I meant by 'doesn't like having its photo taken!' was in comparison to the last couple of Little Stints I have encountered. http://www.pbase.com/nickclayton/image/103120525 http://www.pbase.com/nickclayton/image/87222254 I did get a photo of this bird and if it had been for example a Common Sandpiper I would have been quite pleased with the shot, but in comparison to a lot of Little Stints this one was rather camera shy, although you may prove me wrong. Thanks Nick |

Hi Nick, I'm fairly new at this photography lark, and after looking at your earlier great shots of a little stint, I know I still have a lot to learn. They are brilliant. Hope to meet you there sometime for a lesson! Cheers, Patrick. |

Hi Patrick I'm not much more than a beginner myself when it comes to photographing birds at places such as Covenham and Toft Newton but have picked up a few tips from more experienced photographers for getting close-ups of some of the more obliging birds that turn up at these places, I would be happy to pass these on to you if I bump into you at Covenham some time. Thanks for the compliment regarding the little Stint photos. Cheers Nick |
