Christmas on Soil Hill

Couple of month since but have,nt had time to use it yet with bad weather and dark nights. Good to see that you escaped on Christmas day as well, a nice variety of birds there.
Gone back into the SLR league after many years, the last SLR I had was a film job where you waited a week for the chemist to develop them only to find they were mostly blurred. Got a Canon 550D with a canon 400mm zoom now but still carry my Fuji 18x compact everywhere, its must easier for general use.
Copies are available at £6.00 each from the GO local store at Woodlesford, Pellon price . Hopefully they will also be available at the Fox and Goose Hebden Bridge ,
