Great photos Dave. I tried to upload my black redstart ones today, but it didn't seem to work.
Especially like the Meadow Pipit Dave showing the typical long hind claw of a mipit.
I'd like to see the Black Redstart shot Chris, great find.
Yeah them claws are long Dave, whats the reason for that ? and what do you think about the Kes's wing as the shooters were blasting away in the same spot as the Kes was flying or would it be just wear & tear.
